Frozen by Lies by Martha Sweeney
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

3 Stars

Frozen By Lies is the first book in the Sleigh Riders series by Martha Sweeney. I was so excited to see that Ms. Sweeney had released this new book, as I have loved her other works- and to find that this is a fantasy was just the icing on the cake for me.
Noelle Frost and Nikolaus Klaus take us on a bit of a mad-cap romp- with plenty of eye twinkles, spiked hot chocolate, and cheeky innuendos. With bad blood between their families, their feuding clans are an added complication to romance. But fate has plans for them, and draws them together with a higher agenda at stake. And so their adventure begin
It is a fun Urban fantasy- with feuding clans, magic, paranormal elements, a small-town setting, snow, bikers, funny banter/quips/antics, chemistry, fated-mates, family feuds, clean/closed door romance, and insta-love, providing a holiday romance with a fun difference.
I enjoyed the story, for the most-part and look forward to seeing where we go from here with the next instalment. The dialogue frustrated me at times with some very ott spoofy innuendos that were overdone (in my opinion). If the innuendos were toned down a few notches, the story would have been much more enjoyable, but as it is they left me frustrated and definitely disrupted the flow of the story for me as I stopped to roll my eyes every few moments.
I really wanted to LOVE this story so much more than I did. I had high hopes for this book, but it just didn’t deliver like I had hoped. Maybe the issues I had with it will be sorted by the next instalment- I’m curious to find out.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Martha Sweeney!
