About this listen
Everything’s bigger in Alaska, especially the HEAs. Annabeth Albert kicks off the brand-new Frozen Hearts series with Arctic Sun, an opposites-attract romance between a rugged outdoorsman and a smoking-hot former male model.
He’s built a quiet life for himself in Alaska. But it doesn’t stand a chance against the unrelenting pull of a man who’s everything he shouldn’t want.
Ex-military mountain man Griffin Barrett likes his solitude. It keeps him from falling back into old habits. Bad habits. He’s fought too hard for his sobriety to lose control now. However, his gig as a wildlife guide presents a new kind of temptation in super-hot supermodel River Vale. Nothing the Alaskan wilderness has to offer has ever called to Griffin so badly. That can only lead to trouble....
River has his own methods for coping. Chasing adventure means always moving forward. Nobody’s ever made him want to stand still - until Griffin. The rugged bush pilot is the very best kind of distraction, but the emotions he stirs up in River feel anything but casual, and he’s in no position to stay put.
With temptation lurking in close quarters, keeping even a shred of distance is a challenge neither’s willing to meet. And the closer Griffin gets to River, the easier it is to ignore every last reason he should run.
One-click with confidence. This title is part of the Carina Press Romance Promise: all the romance you’re looking for with an HEA/HFN. It’s a promise!
Publisher’s note: Arctic Sun deals with topics some listeners may find difficult, including sobriety and eating disorders.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 982
After trading the barracks for a fixer-upper rental, navy SEAL Zack Nelson wants peace, not a roommate—especially not Pike, who sees things about Zack he most wants to hide. Pike's flirting puts virgin Zack on edge. And the questions Pike's arrival would spark from Zack's teammates about his own sexuality? Nope. Not going there. But Zack can't refuse. Pike Reynolds knows there won't be a warm welcome in his new home. What can he say? He's an acquired taste. But he needs this chance to get his life together. Also, teasing the uptight SEAL will be hella fun.

Smokejumper Lincoln Reid is speechless to see Jacob Hartman among his squad’s new recruits. Linc had promised his late best friend he’d stay away from his little brother.

Jacob gets everyone’s concerns, but he’s waited years for his shot at joining the elite smokejumping team, hoping to honor his brother’s memory.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 549
Mason Hanks has returned to Rainbow Cove, Oregon with one goal in mind: turn the struggling coastal community into a thriving LGBTQ tourism destination. Step one is transforming an old bar and grill into a gay-friendly eatery. Step two? Don't piss off Nash Flint, the very hot, very stern chief of police who's not so sure he's on board with Mason's big plans. Nash Flint just wants to keep his community safe and enjoy the occasional burger in peace. He's not big on change nor is he a fan of Mason's troublemaking family, especially his rowdy older brothers.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 201
I’m a SEAL. Or rather, I was. Retired at the grand old age of 38, I’m at loose ends. My best friend wants me to join his security team. I’m not sure I’m bodyguard material, but he needs someone to protect his kid brother. How hard can spoiled brat duty be? Somehow, I missed the part where former child star Danny Love went from dorky TV darling to all grown up and disturbingly attractive. All the gossip about his wild ways fails to mention that he’s trying hard to clean up his act.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 743
My path to success never included an enemy as a teammate, especially one as infuriating as Quinton de Haas. Clawing under my skin is his favorite pastime, only feeding the animosity between us as the years pass. We’re as completely opposite as two people can be; the golden boy and the black sheep. Constantly at odds or at each other’s throats. The only thing we can agree on is hockey is our true love, and we’ll do whatever it takes to come out on top. I never imagined that drive would lead me to do the unthinkable: falling into bed with my not-so-straight rival.

I liked the setting, the two men who were struggling with addiction and mental anguish, and the descriptions of Alaska as River and Griffith explored and photographed the beauty of the Arctic.
The sex scenes were okay, but not that exciting. The conversation between the two men dragged on at times, but maybe it’s just me. I purchased this book on a two for one holiday deal.
I’m not giving up on Annabeth Albert however, and have half a dozen of her books in my wishlist.
Very good narration Cooper North!
Dragged a bit

So worth a credit.
And not to bury the lead, but this book has quite possibly the most sensual sexy scene I’ve ever read.
Cooper North’s narration, more gentle and understated, is perfect for these characters. Excellent.
I’ve been told there are even better things later in the series, so I’m off to download the next book.
Heart. Tenderness. Vulnerability. Heat.

Did the story keep me engaged: yes ✔
Was I invested in the characters: yes ✔
📖 Story comment: Good pace, likeable characters, nice flow.
Story was interesting enough that it's got me looking for the next one. I liked that the characters in this book are a little bit older, aren't perfect and know who they are.
I also enjoyed that this book was more about the story and less about the sexy times.
🎧 Narrator comment: I enjoyed Cooper North's narration, I had no problem distinguishing the characters from each other and I thought he did a good job of bringing the story to life.

📌 Where does it fall on my personal scale? 6.5
• 1 not my thing • 2 didn't like the narration • 3 didn't keep my attention • 4 was good, but once was enough • 5 enjoyed it • 6 will listen again if i'm in the mood for the narrator • 7 goes on the "re-listen" list • 8 kept me up past bed-time • 9 recommended to family/friends • 10 own it in multiple formats • 11 keep a copy with me at all times

Then there’s River and Griffin. Two flawed people who are at, quite probably, in the most fragile state they’ve ever been, because they’re about to be vulnerable to each other. The blurb is about 30% of the story. It evolves into something more, something real, something deeper.
This story is quite simply about two imperfect men growing stronger together. 💙
Cooper North did a good job with his narration.
