Synopsis:

All it takes is one moment to change your life . . .

When a cleverly edited video of radio host Lucy Fairweather goes viral, she knows she needs an escape. And preferably somewhere far away.

Where better than Wild Zone – a destination for people who want to experience the Arctic Circle? Owned by the gorgeous but brooding Tommi, Lucy agrees to help with the guests in return for her stay. But getting to grips with her skis is proving harder than it looks.

Far from home and in a winter wonderland, will an encounter with the breath-taking Northern Lights change her luck, in both life and love?

My Review:

I’d like to thank NetGalley and Harper Collins UK for approving me for an ARC of this book. When I spotted the audio version on Scribd I thought I would give it a whirl.

From the start Lucy is clearly a woman with problems and these are ones she isn’t willing to face up to. Every thing that happens to her is always down to some sort of bad luck or because of someone else’s actions. What I had spotted early on was that Lucy liked to play the victim and wasn’t willing to accept that some of her own choices lead her to this path.

Despite this the viral video that lead to Lucy fleeing the country was wholly uncalled for and down right cruel. The aftermath of it was also deeply upsetting and not something that Lucy deserved. Thank god she had some friends looking out for her and could offer her the idyllic break she needed.

When Lucy first arrived at the Wild Zone I immediately fell in love with the beautiful scenery. Seeing the Northern Lights is on my to do list and Emily Kerr’s picturesque descriptions have only fuelled to that desire. Tommy was very interesting and somewhat moody at the beginning. I felt he definitely needed to lighten up a bit and maybe crack a smile or too.

This was an easy listen that I finished in a day. It was cosy and full or heart, the perfect comfort read to enjoy.
