Get Frosted

Hey folks! Just finished reading “Get Frosted” and it's packed with all the cozy small-town holiday vibes.

Meet Mik Gilmore, a retired pro hockey player who's traded the ice for his family bar in his hometown, Christmas Falls. He's a lovable goofball, has a soft spot for Bigfoot, and is head over heels in love with his family and hometown. But he's got a problem - his brother's best friend keeps showing up and ruffling his feathers.

Then there's Rudy Snow, another retired hockey pro and best buddy of Mik's brother Josh. He followed Josh back to Christmas Falls when he hung up his skates but didn't plan on staying. Now, after two years managing another local bar, he's itching for something new. He might come across as grumpy but underneath it all, he's got a heart of gold and has been secretly crushing on Mik for years.

I initially thought this would be your classic rivals-to-lovers story but boy was I wrong - turns out Mik thought they were rivals while Rudy was just pining from afar. With them taking over coaching duties from Josh and planning Mik's grandma's surprise party together, their relationship evolves from playful rivalry into something more genuine and real.

Their love story is super sweet and fun to read - they're great together plus it helps that Josh is all in favor of them being together because they're just so perfect for each other.

Thanks to Gay Book Promotions for the ARC copy and this is my honest review.
