Event-planner Noelle Sterling takes a rare break from her nonstop Atlanta grind and escapes to Winter Haven for a week of peace, wine, and silence. She expected to come home rested, not obsessed with the man who turned her trip into a blur of heat, chemistry, and unforgettable nights. A man she never even got a real name from.
Celebrity chef and heir Niko Frost arrives at the retreat to get away from holiday memories, family pressure, and a merger he never agreed to with his heart. Meeting a woman who would get under his skin, linger in his thoughts, and change the way he saw everything wasn’t part of the plan.
Months later, reality hits hard. Noelle pours herself into her business while protecting the truth she now carries, searching for answers she can’t reach. Niko fights the weight of a future chosen for him, all while wrestling with the memory of a woman he hasn’t been able to forget.
Frost King is a steamy, emotional Christmas novella about two strangers, a fake name love affair, and a connection too intense to shake, even when life, distance, and time try to rip them apart.
This was a good read. They both needed to relax and found that in each other. Giving it 3 starts because the TL was all messed up and it was a big part of the story. Like 10 months and it had only been a year?? Baby should be 3 months max.
I liked the story but the timeline doesn’t make sense and it is a big part of the plot. If the continuity flowed more accurately this would be a 5 star Christmas novella.
Hey, this book's all about taking risks and letting your guard down. You'll see what happens when you act on impulse without thinking things through. Just a heads up, the story might get a bit confusing at times, but it's still pretty decent overall.
This was a nice little read but the timeline made no sense. How is the baby already 10 months when they just hooked up a year ago? Other than that one hiccup this was a cute little story
One wild night could change your life forever and in the best way possible. There’s nothing wrong with having a wild unforgettable day, night and week. Let’s chat!
First let me say, something’s are just meant to be. Listen, I was for the get away to regroup and I was definitely here for the wild and carefree week that both Noelle & Nickolai needed🤭. Now I must be honest, she had me thinking she was going to be that girl who irritated my soul🫣 but my girl was the opposite. Then Niko had me thinking he was going to just be a donkey (you know what word I want to say)🤭 but they both shocked me. The instalove and connection was everything and plus some. The way he had her folded like a pretzel😝! Now I will not lie, I thought Niko was going to upset me and make the wrong move🫣. The way this man step up, showed out and took claim🤏🏾🤏🏾!!
Andi is a new to me author and she did NOT disappoint. I enjoyed this read so much🥰. The way the author implemented the connection the FMC & MMC was top tier. When time permits, I will be back into this author catalog!!!
OMG who doesn’t want a week at Winter Haven or any romantic cute resort for a week after reading this story. I sure can use one. Not just for the disconnect but perhaps to meet a Nikolai for myself. I more than deserve it all. Two hard working people, different states and deserving of love and happiness. One grieves around Christmas time. The other just wants love. They both throw them selves into work to fill the voids. Like the story stated, fate was on its job and hit the perfect marks.
Best part was Niko, once seeing just the little fingers of Nikole, did the math and put beat under his feet to find his babygirl and his woman. He stepped in that gala looking all delicious and scrumptious!! Girl, Getcho man!!
Nikole, reincarnated, gets to bring joy to the families again. Bree and Caleb are great best friends and I think another deserving couple.
Frost King was a great holiday read full of what was supposed to be retreat and rest for Niko and Noelle, but all that went out the window when they locked eyes on each other at the bar. Spiciness is what they found themselves embarking upon. Frost King was full of a winter wonderland with relaxation and rest up in the cabins. There was a seven day love fest with them parting ways with no strings attached, but when a year of unknown and a surprise came about that had me turning the pages desperately wanting to know what happened, I was so happy for the outcome of the two love birds. Please, please don’t you miss out on this love story with a twist you might have saw coming. First time reading anything from this author, and this book will not be the last read!
I like how Niko and Noelle were a real grinders about their business. Niko and Noelle were attracted to each other from the beginning and mixing that with alcohol led them to nights of pleasure. I didn’t like that Noelle had to go through her pregnancy alone but I liked that Niko didn’t question whether Nikole was his daughter. Noelle naming Nikole after Niko’s deceased twin sister ironically was so heartwarming. The whole arranged marriage between Niko and Victoria who was a lesbian threw the book off in my opinion and Niko hooking up with Candace for that long period of time being that she was married to one of Niko’s dad employees.
I enjoyed this read and would love a solo trip to the mountains lol. Who knew a few lemon drops and a wild night could change your life forever!! A time was had and I was here for it. You can sign me up for the day or the week lol. The chemistry was beautiful and when you know what you want you just gotta go after it. Some times you need a little tea, meditation, massage and journal time. Yet sometimes you need a few lemon drops and back sh@ts. I enjoyed Noelle and Niko from the beginning to the end. Let me go pack my bags for Winter Haven lol.
I really enjoyed the book. Noelle and Niko both escape their busy lives for a week of peace in the mountains. Neither is expecting to encounter the other but spends an unforgettable week together. Because they both are staying there under assumed names, tracking down the other proves elusive. Fate steps in though and allows this couple the second chance they were looking for. Would love a story for Bree
Noelle needed a getaway from the stress of work and life, not expecting to cross paths with a fine man and spend an unforgettable week with him, with no strings. this story definitely was a page turner for sure. I didn’t like how she finally seen him and just up and left without talking to him. But I’m glad Niko was able to found her and tell her how he felt. I’m glad everything worked out in the end and everybody got their happy ending!
This was a great quick read. The author just needed to count correctly. They came together at Christmas time one year and cane back the next year to find each other. There is no way the baby could be 10 months old at that time. Other than that this book was amazing.
Frost King was a great holiday read full of retreat, rest, and spiciness! Full of ambience of a winter wonderland with coziness up in the cabins. A seven days love fest with a year of unknown and a surprise had me turning the pages! Don’t miss out on this love story with a beautiful unraveling! First time author to me and will not be the last read!
This book was awesome it grabbed me from the beginning to the end. I understand why Noelle and Niko used fake names in the beginning, but am glad they went back to find each other. I would recommend this book highly to anyone that likes to read a Good Christmas Holiday book that went from one Christmas to the next Christmas.
I was really into the book then all of a sudden she wakes up to her 10 month old daughter how is that even possible she found out she was 2 months pregnant and only a year passed. I had to stop reading because how is that even right the baby should be a couple months but trying to walk
Holiday erotica done right! It was sweet and hella spicy with just a dash of mess but definitely gave you all the feels associated with this time.of year. I thoroughly enjoyed this story.
I can definitely see this being a longer story and it was a really cute holiday read. I saw other comments about TL it wouldn’t have been a big deal if it wasn’t a huge part of the plot. Overall a really good novella for the holidays
This was a great Christmas gift from Andi! Niko and Noelle had me rooting for their love story all the way to the end! And the secret baby?! Yesssss! I live for a secret baby and he was so happy! This was an excellent urban erotica adventure!
This was THE cutest read! The way they met and it was instant attraction, that blossomed into more, but they said no strings. To a year later, SB, and seeing each other again in the same place. All the feels!! Bree and Caleb got next?!
Even though this was a short book, I loved every minute of it thank you for the adventure. I just wish you would’ve had them get married in the end. Thank you. This was amazing.
I really enjoyed Niko and Noelle’s story!! It wasn’t predictable and kept me entertained the whole book. My heart dropped when I thought they weren’t going to get their happily ever after. I will have to read more from this author.
Would love to see more of them but satisfied if I don’t. A NTM author and I’d try again. There were a couple of errors but nothing too major that took away from the story.
From cover to cover this was a great read. Definitely loved the cover that indicated this would be spicy and I was not disappointed. This is a new author for me and I can’t wait to read more of her work.
This was such a beautiful story. My first time reading this Author I think and I loved it. It was so beautifully written and had just enough spice and I loved it black people excelling at what they do. Always great to dream.
I loved this book from start to finish the character build up was 1000 percent amazing Ms.Andi baby u did your big one thank you for allowing me to read this one!!
