Review: An OK read

I loved the setting for this story, and I felt transported to the equally beautiful and harsh environment. As for the story itself, the push and pull between the once lovers was palpable and entertaining. Despite those good points, I'm sad to say that this novella just didn't do it for me.I found myself a little confused by their history [I outlined my questions in my review blog post but refrained from posting it here since it contains spoilers]. Knowing their history did help to paint a clearer picture of why Wren kept throwing up walls against Skip's advances. He was adorable, albeit a little bit clueless. The most annoying thing was the near constant repetition of Wren voicing her thoughts followed by "Did I say that out loud?" After the third time, it wasn't cute anymore. And I won't even start on the logistics of making love with a broken arm that is secured in place by a curling iron.I'd say borrow this one, if you can. While I didn't care much for these two, I found myself more intrigued by the excerpt for Hooked, from the Alaskan Adventure series. Now if only I could find it somewhere. I'm a little mystified, since the second book in that series is due to be released soon.
