Publisher's Summary

I felt the wind rustle, warning me, telling me to get out of its path - but I didn't. I never stood a chance.

A series of weather and road mishaps leave me trapped in the middle of a blizzard with a complete stranger. In the back of a pickup truck. For 48 freakin' hours.

A stranger with long hair, tattoos, and rippling with muscle. A stranger with an insanely sexy voice and a wicked smile that turns my insides to jelly. A stranger who holds me in his arms, calms me, and then sets a fire in me that I can't put out.

Some people chase storms for the beautiful thrill. What happens when the storm chases you?

Contains mature themes.

Love love love!

This is such an awesome listen! Great story and beautiful ending. It did drag a little and a tad more spice would have made it perfect!
Overall loved it!

Snow flake, Love

Enjoyable story
Narrator was frustrating, the story would have been much more enjoying if there had been a make narrator for Storm.
I’ve enjoyed CJ before but in this not so much.
The story was over all sweet.

Cute story

Cute story but I struggled a bit with this one. I think duel narration & POV would have been good. The narrator sounded like a 1940s Disney princess which was a little grating at times.
The start was quite cute but then the end part seemed very rushed.

A nice surprise

Wasn't sure what to expect and was pleasantly suprised. Great narration brought the characters to life, was hard to stop listening. Liked the two main characters, and the way the established relationship was handled. Worth a credit

Decent story with some disappointing plot points

Very romantic and sweet and sexy connection between Storm and Evelyn. Narration was pretty good considering it wasn’t duet. I really liked their connection and the way Storm had so much love and respect for Evelyn.
However I found Evelyn to be a bit of a door mat and her backstory quite sad yet underdeveloped. I found her circumstances hard to read and I didn’t like that she was seeing someone else for most of this book. The storyline with the shitty bf was drawn out, and repetitive and gruelling to read about. Like she was being treated SO badly and accepted such terrible behaviour. It was unsexy and sad honestly. It’s a shame because I do think it took away from how great this book could have been.

Missed the mark for me

I have enjoyed other books by this author but I couldn’t quite connect with the characters in this one and had a hard time rooting for their relationship. It felt a little anticlimactic.
Narration was great.

Couldn’t stop reading from the beginning

I loved this love story. It was a slow burn to start, but I felt near the end the book the story progressed a little too quickly.

I also would have preferred duel narration, it would have been great to have storms perspective as well.

Overall great read! The story pulled me in quickly.
