Joy Jarrett (1938–2017)

Disclaimer: I received this book for free from LibraryThing in return for an honest review.

Veterinarian Piper is trying to start over after separating from her husband, Dylan. When Dylan calls her out of the blue and asks her to come back to the ranch. Her horse has been savagely attacked by something and has to be put down. What attacked her horse and some other animals on the ranch? When an epic blizzard hits their area Dylan again needs Piper's veterinarian expertise. But this blizzard is not like any normal blizzard it has a supernatural feel to it, and something is hunting them. Can they survive this storm while battling their growing feelings for each other?

This book sucked me in right away and I could not put it down. I did find the main characters to be a little dull and their "romance" to be lack luster. But I enjoyed the mystery around the monster hunting them. There are several instances of violence towards animals. If you are very sensitive about that type of thing this book may not be for you. Personally, I usually can't deal with descriptions of violence against animals, but I did not find the ones in this book to be terrible. Overall I enjoyed this book.… (mer)

I have never read a horror/romance before and I have to say that it’s a genre I would read again! This story is particularly well written and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time! Like seriously, I had to just stop reading in the middle of a chapter in order to get sleep because every chapter end made me want to keep reading! Did I actually get sleep? No! I had to pull my appendages in from the edge of the bed and snuggle closer to my husband. The gore level was a little much, but the supernatural and mythological aspects where so interesting that it wasn’t too bad. There is time travel too! It’s quite a melting pot of genre but it definitely worked. Super cool, engaging, and thrilling story... with romance! Definitely would recommend. I will explore more from this author! 💔🦌💀🧟‍♂️🐴🤠👩‍⚕️❤️ I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving a free copy.… (mer)
