About this listen

I must marry one of the fae, but the forbidden ice lord wants me.

To secure a human-fae truce, I'm one of five women traveling to their magical kingdom, where we'll be courted by fae aristocracy. We have one month to choose a husband from among them.

Only Elion, the arrogant, beastly ice lord, is forbidden. His torturous scars make the other women gasp. His icy words rip them to shreds. His touch is colder than frost. He lurks in the shadows, never coming out into the light.

One stolen moment with Elion, and I'm intrigued. A kiss, and I'll do anything to call this brutishly handsome lord mine.

Then one of the women is found dead. When you're next appears on my bedroom wall, written in blood, it's clear there's more going on here than solidifying the human-fae truce.

If I'm not careful, I won't become a bride of the fae. I'll wind up dead.

Ice Lord's Bride is book one in a fantasy romance duology. It heats to a high sizzle and comes with a guaranteed happily ever after.

Good...somewhat

As an avid and devoted fan of Ava Ross, I feel compelled to share my thoughts on her latest audiobook. Her writing has always been a source of joy for me—her prose is like music to my eyes, and I can always count on her to deliver a captivating story with every book she writes. That said, I must admit that this particular audiobook did not resonate with me as deeply as some of her previous works.

The story itself was intriguing and filled with potential, but unfortunately, the narration by Ryan and Jillian left much to be desired. Their delivery often made the beautifully crafted words feel more like mere words on a page, diminishing the impact of the script. The voices and performances didn't fully capture the essence of the characters, which detracted from my enjoyment of the book.

Additionally, I was disappointed to realize that the story's continuity is dependent on subsequent installments in the series, something I hadn't anticipated. While I understand the appeal of cliffhangers, they are a literary device that I tend to shy away from, as they often leave me in a state of suspense without any resolution. In this case, it left me unsure of whether to continue with the same narrators at the helm.

Due to medical reasons, I am no longer able to read traditional books and must rely on audiobooks or personal readers to experience literary works. While this particular audiobook didn't meet my expectations, I know that Ava Ross has produced other works with different narrators that I have thoroughly enjoyed. As such, I may choose to move on to another of her titles rather than continuing with this series.

Overall, while I hold Ms. Ross in the highest regard, this audiobook didn't quite hit the mark for me. I look forward to exploring her other works in the future, hopefully with narrators whose performances better align with the quality of her writing.

Ends in Cliffhanger

I hate books that end in a cliffhanger when the next audiobook is not available. The book wasn’t hard to listen to because of the narrators who brought the characters to life. There is lots of suspense since the witch will not reveal why she cast a spell on the main male character. What or who the main female character is was also not revealed. I do plan to continue the series. FYI: not all people who leave a star rating write a narrative to explain that rating.

Awesome

I loved this book. It was read beautifully and didn’t move too fast or slow through the plot. I do hate that it ended and a slight cliff hanger. But not enough to give it less stars.

Tried to Listen Twice to this Story

When I purchased the audiobook it had 1 review of 5 stars. I have tried to listen to this story three times and fell a sleep through it three times. It just doesn't keep my interest after introducing the characters and how they met. I think the whole story could play out in about 3 hours but was draw out to 7 hours of nothing going on. By the time I closed up the audio window to leave my review there was a 2nd review given that dropped the over all rating to 3 stars. Neither of the reviews could be read at the time I left this review so I still have no idea what the first two reviewers said about this book but I can say each chapter did not leave me wanting to know what was going to happen next. I only tried three times to listen to it all the way through because I paid for it and it had a 5 star review.

I couldn’t get through it

It started off well, with a lot of promise, but it’s very childish and silly. And there’s a lot of repetition. The narrators are quite good, and they kept me in it longer than I should’ve stayed. But ultimately I had to bow out at chapter 28.
