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.

The right combination

Compelling characters, right settings. Able to leverage memories of Alaska locations and a time in my life when I began exploring. Only thing I remember that was missing: mosquitoes, but that’s OK.

enjoyed it

Would I listen to it again: yes ✔
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.

Heart. Tenderness. Vulnerability. Heat.

I don’t know what I was expecting. I always enjoy Annabeth Albert stories. They leave me a feel-good smiling heart when the story is over. This one was no exception. Still somehow it surprised me. The tenderness. The sensuality. Two damaged souls who are more ok together than apart. Not cured of their ails, but better. Settled. Safe with each other.

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.

Alaska 💙

This book, more than anything, made me want to go to Alaska even more. The places described, they’re beautiful. The experiences during the tour, priceless.

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.

Opposites Attract

Love Annabeth Albert, but she is definitely in her element writing about military men. This one was a tad too fluffy even for me. River & Griff both hint around their backstories which grabbed my interest but then the backstory never fully comes to light. Terrible missed opportunity IMO. BF Hank that dies and turns Griffs life upside down (again lots hee & hawing but left flapping in wind) sounds like a selfish, bullying a$$hole. Rivers friends are equally self absorbed and petty.

Very Good

The author writes in such a way that I can picture every scene. She either knows her stuff or does excellent research. Amazing attention to detail, especially in regards to the outdoor scenes, of which there are a lot in thus book. Great romance and incredible narration.
