Jack Frost, I've always loved him, and in Wendy Sparrow's novella Frosted, you get to look at Jack from a whole new perspective......a grown-up one.  After falling through the ice Kate finds herself in a fantasy world with Jack Frost, and ends up marrying him, becoming his queen.  She cares for him, but isn't really sure she wants to be in this magical place, at least not forever.  He agrees to let her go back to the mortal word to "put her affairs in order," giving her 2 years to return.  Kate, fearful of commitment, runs to Florida to get as far away from Jack and the cold weather as possible.  Though she gets away from the cold weather, she can't stop feeling cold all the time, and she sure can't stop Jack from visiting her in her dreams every night, and despite the cold, what happens in her dreams is very hot.  What Wendy doesn't know is that  her running away has affected the balance in Jack's winter kingdom, and if he doesn't get her back soon, all will be lost.  Jack reverts to some covert mortal methods to get Wendy back, but will he be able to do it in time, convincing her that he does really love her and she belongs with him?Frosted is a fast-paced and fun contemporary romantic fantasy that is the perfect fairy tale for grown-up girls.  I liked the fact that Wendy Sparrow combined the contemporary element with fantasy, still maintaining the "magic" of Jack Frost, while adding the modern day romance feeling to it.  I enjoyed seeing Jack Frost all grown up, and despite his name and the "coldness" that it represents, Jack is quite the hottie, which was really nice.  I especially enjoyed the "icy-hot" sizzle that was incorporated into the story.  For all of you big girls who still love fairy tales, and also love contemporary romance, Frosted is a fun, sexy little novella you might enjoy checking out.
