She's a rebel with a cause.
He represents everything she's fighting against.
But they need each other to survive the land of endless winter.

Gerta was raised wild and free in the winter tundra, and she will fight to remain free of the foreign oppressors alongside her clan. When the Empire sends a new garrison to the fortress, Gerta and her clan are ready to teach them a lesson. But they are unprepared for just what kind of garrison has come.

Kay was trained to bring law and order to the far corners of the Empire. Newly appointed to lead the Emperor's finest, his first assignment is to handle the clan causing trouble with the northern fortresses. But he is unprepared for the wild woman determined to make him regret ever laying his eyes on her.

But the tundra is a treacherous to all, citizen or foreigner. When a terrible storm separates both captain and captive from the rest of their company, the pair have no choice but to rely on each other if they want to survive. But there is a greater enemy to fear than two souls on opposite sides of a territory line or even a merciless landscape. After all, the Queen of Winter is said to prowl the north, hunting for hearts to make her own . . .

What Risingshadow readers think about this book

9/10

This was an enjoyable Snow Queen Reimagining with excellent world building and characters. I haven't read many retellings of this fairy tale but thought this was a good story and enjoyed getting to know both Gerta and Kay. I look forward to reading more fairy tale retellings by this author in the future.

I received a free advanced reader copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
