Frost Fair by Erastes

Frost Fair by Erastes
Publisher: Bristlecone Pine Press
Genre: Historical m/m



Review Copy Received from Author

Summary: In 1814, the River Thames froze solid in one of the coldest winters on record; tradesmen and society all flocked to the Frost Fair - the last ever to be held on the ice. Against this chilly backdrop, the printer, engraver and fiercely independent Gideon Frost struggles; not only to keep his business afloat, selling his body to men when he must, but also to hide his growing attraction to a wealthy customer: the gentleman Joshua Redfern. Redfern is a man out of Gideon's class and very much out of his reach.

When disaster strikes, Gideon is forced to make a decision which will affect his future: will he choose love, or independence? Frost Fair evokes a bitterly cold London winter as Gideon tries to find the heat of love in his heart and his life. Written by Erastes, author of the widely acclaimed Standish and Trangressions, the latter the first in a new line of m/m historical romances published by Running Press.

Dakota's Review: I grabbed Frost Fair out of curiosity and nothing more. I saw the title and was intrigued; Erastes didn't disappoint either. I loved the lushness of the words and the pictures they painted. I could feel Gideon's desperation at times as if it were my own. I've never read a historical m/m book before and I will have to say it captured my attention. Erastes attention to details had this reviewer feeling as if she were there in the cold of England's bitter winters. I can't say enough about how well written this book is. The characters were wonderfully drawn and I hope to be fortunate enough to read another book from Erastes in the future. I give Frost Fair four and a half Delightful Divas!

Rated 4 ½ Delightful Divas by Dakota!

I've read Frost Fair and really enjoyed it. Throughout the book, I kept thinking, "Poor Gideon." I wonder if there is a sequel to this... I need to check.

Thanks,

No sequel yet, but there probably will be in while.

Thanks for the review!

I'd just like to say that it's available in print too by Cheyenne Press.
