Frigid



Frigid by J. Lynn


For twenty-one-year-old Sydney, being in love with Kyler isn't anything new. They'd been best friends ever since he pushed her down on the playground and she made him eat a mud pie. Somewhere over the years, she fell for him and fell hard. The big problem with that? Kyler puts the 'man' in man-whore. He's never stayed with a girl longer than a few nights, and with it being their last year in college, Syd doesn't want to risk their friendship by declaring her love. Kyler has always put Syd on a pedestal that was too high for him to reach. To him, she's perfect and she's everything. But the feelings he has for her, he's always hidden away or focused on any other female. After all, Kyler will always be the poor boy from the wrong side of tracks, and Syd will always be the one girl he can never have. But when they're stranded together at a posh ski resort due to a massive Nor'easter, there's nothing stopping their red-hot feelings for each other from coming to the surface. Can their friendship survive the attraction? Better yet, can they survive at all? Because as the snow falls, someone is stalking them, and this ski trip may be a life-changer in more ways than one.


There aren't enough words to describe how much I loved this story. It's a typical girl loves boy unrequited love story but there is something about Kyler and Sydney that just drew me in and hooked me.

Sydney is shy and bookish. She's studying to become a psychologist and she's Kyler's best friend. Oh and she loves him.. Like stupid loves him, even though he has more hook-ups than humanly possible. I mean the boy doesn't even remember some of their names for goodness sake. She tries so hard to tamp her feelings down but when he does it right in front of her it kills her a little more each time.

Kyler would do anything for Sydney. She's his best friend and she always has been. He's her protector and he takes that job very seriously. He hates the new guy hanging out with their group because he says new guy eye fucks Sydney and its not cool.  He knows that his man-whoring ways bothers Sydney but he just doesn't know how to stop.

Going to Kyler's families house at Snowshoe is a yearly tradition, this year though they end up stranded there by a huge snow storm. Then funny things start happening. Windows getting broken and wires on the generator are cut.  Finally able to get out of the house, Kyler rides to the lodge on a snow mobile to see if they know when the roads are going to be open. What he comes back to is not the expected and its the start of a down hill slope for them emotionally.

I literally only put this book down to go to the bathroom and to get a snack. It sucked me in and wouldn't let go. I hope you go and see Kyler and Sydney work out a lifetime of friendship that could be a lifetime of love and happiness. I also can't wait to see what the companion book is about.. EEP!! It's too far away to wait!
