The heroine: Paige – her and her three best girlfriends from high school were supposed to go on a five-month ski trip to whistler ski resort in Vancouver. Paige took a semester off her studies at Cal-Tech and got a job at the ski resort, so she can ski for work and ski for fun for five months with her friends. They rented a ski condo and though two of her friends bugged out due to a broken leg and school issues, her and her bestie were still planning to go until Paige finds out at the airport that her best friend decided not to go.
The Heroes: Aiden, Jack and Seth – Aiden is an IT consultant that recently went through something and wanted to spend time with his two friends who go away for a yearly ski trip for four months a year. Seth is a painter who loves to surf and to snowboard even more. Jacques (a.k.a. Jack) comes to whistler each year to be a ski instructor.
The Story: – Paige gets to the check in at the resort only to find that her friend, who canceled at the last minute, just assumed Paige wouldn’t go so she canceled their condo reservation as well. The three guys got the four-bedroom condo at a reduced price due to the last-minute cancellation and since it is so close to Christmas, there isn’t a room available for miles. So, the guys offer to let Paige stay with them.
The world building is great in this book, it is easy to see the author probably spent some time at Whistler. The description of the ski runs, and the village were fantastic, even the olympic rings from the 2010 winter olympics. The characters were also fantastic, each of the guys had their own distinct personality and Paige was a very nice woman.
I really liked all of the characters and I loved how the story detailed so much of their day to day lives while at the condo, hiking, snowmobiling, skiing and snowboarding. Not to mention the steamy parts. This was one of those books that you could really disappear into the story. I liked it so much, that I looked up more reverse-harem romances from this author and decided to jump right in to another one.
