Arctic Bonds: A Reverse Harem Shifter Academy Romance (Frosthaven Academy Book 1)

by Jaye Marellen

About this book

My mother died with secrets on her lips. Now those secrets are trying to kill me.

I came to Frosthaven Academy for a fresh start. What I found was a world I didn't know existed—and a body that's changing in impossible ways.

I heal instantly. I'm stronger than I should be. And when certain men touch me, my skin ignites with heat.

Luca, my RA, knows what I need before I do. His touch feels like coming home.

Professor Tomlinson watches me with barely controlled hunger, then pushes me away because wanting me could destroy his career.

Ash, the professor's reckless brother, makes me laugh for the first time since Mom died—and eases a grief I thought would drown me.

But these aren't just crushes. These connections are fated—ancient magic that's supposed to be rare.

And I'm manifesting bonds that shouldn't be possible.

The Council watches my every move. The headmaster wants me gone. Fifteen students before me have vanished without a trace. And everyone keeps telling me I'm dangerous—but no one will tell me why.

When my abilities explode during a fight, I'm forced into private training with a mysterious investigator who looks at me like I'm prey.

Or maybe like I'm something else entirely.

My mother kept me hidden for eighteen years. Now I'm uncovering the truth she died protecting.

Because in a world where bonds are power and being different means being hunted, some secrets are buried for a reason.

It's nice they have this bond but having extremely close bonding with 5 different men doesn't set well with me. )

Rushed (no spoilers)

I’ve read all three books and I’ve come back to offer insight. The first book made me hopeful for the rest of the trilogy, the idea was fun, and the characters were interesting. However, after finishing all three books, I was disappointed. The final book specifically felt extremely rushed, and as if the author was tired of writing the story, we don’t get to see parts of the story and plot that seem extremely important to the overall arc of the characters, there are a lot of details that are...

Frosty setting — steamy romantacy

Breath-taking!!! A frosty setting for a steamy romance in an exciting premise and dangerous adventure. I dont even care that Im a 60+yo woman reading about college kids mostly. This author transcends that with how involved you get with the characters, the story and the unique paranormal/magic aspects. So glad all 3 books were written when I came across this. Hope to read more from her ) 2 people found this helpful

But the character development needs to go deeper. What does she even look like? Why didn't she question being homeschooled? Lots of empty spots in character dev ) 9 people found this helpful
