Warmth Everlasting
Survive the Cold. Or Become It.
Black Hollow, Alaska—a dying town of 87 souls, swallowed by winter’s endless dark. No warmth. No Christmas lights. Only the howling wind and a cold that never lets go.
Until he arrives.
On Christmas Eve, a stranger steps through the storm. Ben Whittaker, a gaunt preacher with frostbitten lips and a briefcase of strange vials, whispers a salvation from the cold—for those who will listen.
Harper Winters, the town outcast, isn’t fooled. She knows there is something sinister going on. And when Black Hollow’s people begin to change, when ice slithers through the streets like something alive, she knows the the cold isn’t just weather. It’s waking up.
As Christmas night looms and an eerie hymn rises with the storm, Harper must make an impossible choice. Run. Or fight the cold before it takes everything.

Warmth everlasting feels like a terrifying trip to the harsh setting of Black Hollow, Alaska. I’m a sucker for stories set in Alaska and I loved every minute I spent there through the eyes of the main character. This story is way different from anything else by this author, but it was a welcomed surprise.
Every book of R. A. King lightens up my heart (even though it’s horror😉), because of his enchanting, almost poetic writing style. To me he is some sort of word magician. I bet we’ll be hearing a lot more from this author.
Thank you so much for the gifted ARC @rakingauthor. It’s always a pleasure to read them. 🖤
