Rating: 4 out of 5

This book sucked me in from the very first page, the story started immediately after the death of Lourdes's parents and it never lost steam as it continued that way till the very end. I love the world that Ms. Edwards created, each clan has something different and unique and we get to see how they are through their interactions with Lourdes and Rhys. The two central character of the book Lourdes and Rhys are the types of hero and heroines that readers love to read about. Lourdes is a strong, independent woman and it definitely shows as she becomes the new maven and leader of her clan. Rhys is the typical alpha male (Love alphas btwJ) in this book; he is described as a big, muscled warrior who is a great fight and is very protective of Lourdes. There was automatic chemistry from the beginning between Lourdes and Rhys and as the book the progress the tension between the two builds. I also really enjoyed the secondary characters, such as Lourdes's family and Rhys brother Vaughn. I really liked Vaughn, even though he seemed like a jerk sometimes, we later find out the reason why he treats Rhys the way he does but in the end he does love and care for his brother. It would be awesome if Vaughn got his own story, that's something I want to see!Overall an amazing start to a fantasy series, I look forward to reading more from Ms. Edwards and more books in the Araneae Nation series. A Hint of Frost is a romance novel set in the midst of a murder, full of deception, and betrayal. This book has a well developed and executed world, wonderful fleshed out primary and secondary characters and a nonstop action packed plot. I highly recommend this series to all romance, fantasy and even urban fantasy readers. I think they would really enjoy this book as much as I did.  If you're looking for something different to read then pick up A Hint of Frost, you won't be disappointed!
