About this listen
Starting new chapter in my life never felt so cold.
Nothing like picking up and moving across country on a whim.
My name is Cait Monroe, and I’d love to find a nice small ski town and live happily ever after, but I’ve promised to help my mom get back on her feet. So when Mom decides that she, along with my half sister, should pack up and go on an eight-month road trip out of nowhere, I tag along. For my sister's sake.
It's only then, when we settle into the new city and new way of life, that my past comes back to haunt me. Threats lurk around every corner, and I only want to move on. I struggle figuring out how to build a new life for myself and not knowing who to trust. So when four very sexy guys insert themselves into my life, I’m wary. Why are they doing this? What could they want with me?
As the sense of danger grows ever closer, the truth of my past becomes overwhelming and I fight for control.
Can I find refuge in this storm, and escape the peril the cold of night brings?

Story
Vlad Kuznetsov is a psychopath—a killing machine. Experimented on from a young age by a mad scientist, he cannot feel anything. No pain. No remorse. No regret. His violent episodes make him a danger to society, so he’s learned to live in the shadows. Alone is safer. Alone means control. Until her. Assisi Lastra. The little nun with fire in her eyes. She should fear him—everyone else does. But instead, she stands toe-to-toe with the devil and dares him to feel.

You want my advice? Never look a gift horse in the mouth. You don’t want to see the rotten teeth. In this case, the gift is a scholarship to attend the prestigious Neveah University. The rotten teeth? Well, they came in the form of my brand new stepbrother and his little cohort of entitled, arrogant best friends. Four dangerously handsome and stupidly wealthy men who made up their minds about me long before we met. Men who are used to getting everything they want no matter what the price.

My days are filled with code and algorithms, but my nights are haunted by isolation and loneliness.

Being an Omega used to be the dream everyone wanted. Now it's a nightmare. Packs are a thing of the past, black market dealers kidnap Omegas off the street, and the ones that escape are little better than pawns for the government to control. So when my designation revealed itself in the worst situation possible, I ran. Or I tried to. While trying to escape, I found myself in an even worse fate at the hands of my abuser—my father. Now that he knows I'm an Omega he sees me as nothing more than a commodity, locking me away until he could legally sell me to the highest bidder.

Escaping the Cold is book #1 in the Scandalous Slopes series. Its a dark reverse harem. Make sure to check the trigger warning.
This audiobook is all around PERFECT!!! I can already tell that this is one that i am going to listen to a million times! These narrators brought every single emotion, and brought these characters to life so dang well. I could go on and on forever about this one!
I cant believe this is a debut novel!
Cait has just moved to a small, ski town and is helping her mom with her little sister. She loves their new home, loves her new job and meets 4 hot guys that she can't stop thinking about.
Corey, Cam, Bast, and Dom are all so freaking HOT!!! Some fall instantly for Cait, some fight it, but they cant deny that they fit perfectly. When Caits past comes back to ruin her present, everything could be ruined.
That cliffhanger!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhh!!!! I can't wait for the next book!!! I couldn't put this down. I love the characters, i love the world, I love the mystery and i love the spice!
Its a perfect start to the series!
Obsessed with this audio!
