Hot Reads is a Monthly Meme, hosted by Book Savvy Babe and Alive on the Shelves, where we get to share our hottest read of the month! Your choice can be any book, it doesn’t matter the genre, the length, whether it’s new or not :)
This month the book that got me all hot and bothered was North of Need by Laura Kaye (my review goes up tomorrow). I really enjoyed the story, Owen was hot, and it made me want to melt! It also slightly made me wish I lived in a place where I could build a snowman. I mean what girl in her right mind would turn down a Frosty the Snowman that looked like Owen? Was as sweet as Owen? Also could build an igloo like Owen? Really I just enjoyed the story from beginning to end and smex/tension/chemistry was sizzling hot!
Her tears called a powerful snow god to life, but only her love can grant the humanity he craves…
Desperate to escape agonizing memories of Christmas past, twenty-nine-year-old widow Megan Snow builds a snow family outside the mountain cabin she once shared with her husband, realizing too late that she’s recreated the very thing she’ll never have.
Called to life by Megan’s tears, snow god Owen Winters appears unconscious on her doorstep in the midst of a raging blizzard. As she nurses him to health, Owen finds unexpected solace in her company and unimagined pleasure in the warmth of her body, and vows to win her heart for a chance at humanity.
Megan is drawn to Owen’s mismatched eyes, otherworldly masculinity, and enthusiasm for the littlest things. But this Christmas miracle comes with an expiration—before the snow melts and the temperature rises, Megan must let go of her widow’s grief and learn to trust love again, or she’ll lose Owen forever.

I know–he is turned the right way huh? :)
excellent choice! I love Laura Kaye and her hearts of anemoi series is solo good, pretty steamy too ;) Thanks for joining in Hot Reads again! Book Savvy Babe
I am really looking forward to West of Want!
Wow. I can’t type today. That should be “A snow god” not “I snow god”. Lord.
hehe I knew what you meant :)
I snow god? That is something I have definitely never read before and need to experience immediately if said snow god looks like the guy on the cover. I’m such a sucker for mismatched eyes too, they remind of of Qhuinn from the BDB and I love him something fierce:)
Yep a Snow God! A Snow God sent to save her *melt*! It was a great escape read :)
