When two strangers are trapped in a blizzard, heat rises. Haunted by what he lost in Afghanistan, Captain Jack Turner is at a crossroads. While the last place he wants to go is the Arctic, at least the routine mission gets him out from behind his new desk. But he starts off on the wrong foot with the Canadian Ranger guiding him across the forbidding and dangerous land, and Jack would rather be anywhere than sharing a tent with Sergeant Kin Carsen. The Arctic is in Kin's blood, and he can't seem to leave the tundra behind. He wishes he could live openly as a gay man, but the North isn't as accepting as the rest of Canada. Although he's lonely, he loves his responsibility as a Ranger, patrolling the vast land he knows so well. But he's on unfamiliar ground with Jack, and when they're stranded alone by a blizzard, unexpected desire begins to burn. Soon they're in a struggle to survive, and all these strangers have is each other. Contains mature themes.… (mehr)

Narrator Joel Leslie still sounded like Joel Leslie - but I found his hushed, melodramatic voice was reigned in here - enough. So, f I didn't pay too much attention - if the story was intense enough - I wasn't distracted as I usually am by Leslie's voice. I'm relieved to discover this! because he does read a lot of good books and i hate dodging that book simply because I don't want his narration style.

I learnt something about the Inuit as Captain Jack Turner and Canadian Ranger Kin Carsen go on a patrol in an area above the Artic Circle.

The book is only 2.75 hours - a lot is packed in. I would have been happy to stay with this story for 8 hours, my preferred length of an audiobook - and usually it's the ones that go over that cause me to comment!

Keira Andrews is very similar to N R Walker. I think back to her some of her books I've read, like Honeymoon for One, and I remembered it as a Walker story. Perhaps because that one is mostly set in Australia, but believe me it is a compliment to Andrews if I'm mixing her up with Walker. ( )

Had to drop a half star for the pronunciation of Toque! It rhymes with "fluke" not "toke" (what one does with a doobie). Had it been mention only once I would have been able to let it go but the book is set in the Canadian Arctic and toque was said again and again making my brain itch each and every time!

Also, I think I must have read this years ago in an anthology because it was very familiar. ( )
