Book description
The snow outside St. Vladimir's isn't just cold-it's a living thing, sharp and whispering through the pines. And inside? Rose Hathaway's heart is frostbitten. Winter break should be quiet, but danger breathes down their necks. Strigoi hunt. Her mother, Janine, drills her like a weapon. And the boy who should be hers? His gaze lingers elsewhere. The air crackles with unspoken words, the ache of a girl caught between loyalty and longing, her mind tethered to Lissa's stolen moments with Christian. It's a storm inside her, colder than the Idaho wind.
Then comes the mandatory ski trip. Glittering slopes. Posh resort. A perfect, fragile lie. The resort's elegance is a mask; beneath it, the Strigoi's shadow stretches long. When friends vanish into the snow, Rose must choose: run towards Christian, or dive into the heart of the danger. Heroism here isn't grand-it's the grit in your teeth, the sound of your own breath, the terrible cost etched in every frostbitten step.
And this audiobook? It makes you feel the ice. The narrator's voice, low and urgent, carries the weight of the Academy's fear, the sting of Rose's frustration, the quiet terror of a world unraveling. You hear the crunch of snow under boots, the sharp intake of breath during a fight, the hushed, desperate whispers of a mind pulled into another's. The psychic link to Lissa isn't just described-it's felt, a vibration in your bones. The tension isn't shouted; it's breathed, a slow, chilling exhale that pulls you deeper into the cold.
Mason's quiet hope, Dimitri's guarded distance, the way Rose's fists clench when she sees him look away-every nuance lands with a quiet punch. The ski resort's false warmth fades, replaced by the real, biting chill of a world where love is a weapon and trust is a gamble. You don't just hear the story; you live the tension, the sharp cold of a decision made too late, the desperate hope clinging to the edge of a cliff. The Strigoi aren't just monsters-they're the silence between heartbeats, the shadow that follows you into the snow. This isn't just a book you read; it's a world you step into, where every breath feels like it might be your last, and the only warmth comes from the fierce, fragile fire of a girl refusing to let go. Winter's bite is real, and this audiobook makes it stick.
