About this listen

After decades of sold-out stadiums and never-ending tours, coming home to run my family's Vermont dairy farm was supposed to be peaceful. Instead, I'm being terrorized by my devastatingly attractive neighbor who's apparently declared war on me—one "gift" at a time.

A goat that won't leave my side. A rooster with a Napoleon complex. A hive of bees with serious attitude problems. The boy I remember as my best friend's sweet little brother has grown into a man with a serious grudge and zero intention of making my homecoming easy.

When a crisis threatens our small town's Christmas celebrations, we're forced to work together. Fighting our attraction while saving the holidays should be simple, right?

Too bad Taylen James has always been my greatest weakness.

Frost and Fire is a brother's best friend, enemies-to-lovers Christmas romance with an age gap, small-town charm, and enough sexual tension to melt Vermont snow.

This book is the excellent start to a new series. The story is set in a small town in Vermont, where Sebastian returns. Sebastian is a famous rock star who now wants to help his father on the farm. At home, he meets his neighbor Taylen, the little brother of his deceased friend. I found both characters likable and endearing. They each have their own way of dealing with their grief over Taylen's brother, who was also Sebastian's best friend.
I enjoyed both the small-town atmosphere and the farm setting with all the interesting animals. And the two get creative when it comes to gifts for each other, because a rooster that crows very early every morning is a fantastic gift, don't you think? At least that's what Sebastian thinks, and I agree, but Taylen's dark circles are getting darker every day. And anyway, Taylen isn't particularly thrilled about Sebastian's return, as long-suppressed feelings are reawakened and who knows how long Sebastian will stay this time? Look forward to lots of crazy and interesting animals, an enemies-to-lovers story, and a happy ending. It took me a while as a reader to feel the chemistry between the two characters, but that doesn't matter. The story was entertaining, with an age gap, and the two were already cute together.

Alexander Cendese does an excellent job of narrating. His voice is pleasant to listen to, he conveys the emotions well, and he does the story absolute justice. I'm already looking forward to the next volume in the series.

A great start to a new series
