A new career, a new place, and a new man—you’d think after the rough year she’s had, Isla has finally found her stride. Of course it’s never that simple. Some dreams she is building, some dreams are taken away before they have a chance to form. But she never imagined that the one thing she’s worked so hard to realize, could be the cause it all breaks apart.
Ben doesn’t miss his assignments, his life of deceit, or his unsavory associations—but they appear to miss him. Just as he’s beginning to think perhaps there’s redemption for him after all, his dark past casts a long shadow.—and not just on him, but on the woman who made him believe.

Excerpt:
“Are you watching?” he asks, keeping me once again in suspension as one of his hands slides from my belly, up between my breasts, and curves around my neck.
“I am,” I whisper, just as he drives up with force, stealing what little breath I have.
His pace is furious and I can’t tear my eyes away from our reflection. Ben’s head is down, his attention on the furious piston of his hips, and yet the touch of his hand on my neck stays gentle in contrast. A dichotomy, much like the man. Soft and hard in equal measure.
Freya Barker:
Freya Barker inspires with her stories about 'real’ people, perhaps less than perfect, each struggling to find their own slice of happy. She is the author of the Cedar Tree Series and the Portland, ME, novels.
Freya is the recipient of the RomCon “Reader’s Choice” Award for best first book, “Slim To None,” and is a finalist for the 2016 Kindle Book Awards for “From Dust”. She currently has two complete series and three anthologies published, and is working on two new series; La Plata County FBI—ROCK POINT, and Northern Lights. She continues to spin story after story with an endless supply of bruised and dented characters, vying for attention!
KT Dove:
KT Dove grew up, and still lives, in the Midwest. At an early age she developed a love of reading, driving the local librarians crazy, and would plan plot lines and stories for her favorite characters. KT received degrees in English, Speech/Drama, and Education. And yet instead of becoming an English teacher as planned, she opted for an unexpected HEA.
Now married, a mother and still an avid reader, she stumbled upon the Indie author movement and became involved on several levels. Never in her wildest imagination would she have thought she would co-author a book. With the support of her family, she took the plunge, adding writing to an already busy literary existence.
She wouldn’t have it any other way.
My Review:
For me, Freya Barker is one of the very few authors out there whose books grab me from the very first sentence and I can't bear to put the story down until I am all finished. And Freeze Frame, that she co-wrote with KT Dove, is not an exception. These two autors masterfully weave a story that will make you feel every little emotion the characters experience through their fight for a HEA. There is suspense, danger, heartbreak, romance and of course a lot hotness. This is simply an intriguing story that has every single feature of a page-turner.
I loved Ben and Isla. They are different in so many ways but at the same time, they are perfect for each other. To be honest, Isla is one of my favorite heroines of late. She is quirky and sassy, sweet and caring, but she also has an inner strength that you wouldn't expect from her. Losing most of the people closest to her at an young age, scarred her for life and made it nearly impossible for anyone to penetrate the wall around her heart. But Ben found a crack in her armour and stole her heart, while unknowingly gave her his. And let me tell you, Ben is definitely a guy you want to steal your heart. He is an alpha through and through. He is a man of a few words, but those expressive ice blue eyes are so expressive. And when his dominant and protective side shows up, let's just say you want that silver fox to have eyes only for you ;)
Apart from the characters, the story line is also incredible. If you've read Shutter Speed (it's a must before starting Freeze Frame), you already know how Ben and Isla met. So it is not a surprise that they already know they want to be together. Unfortunately, life is never that easy and they have to overcome the danger lurking around the corner and the past demons that came to haunt them. It is not an easy fight but it definitely shows how much they mean to each other.
So, in a few words, this is a fast paced, nail biting suspenseful read that will leave your head spinning but it will also satisfy the romantic in you. Isla and Ben are just that amazing :) And there are quite a few secondary characters whose story I would love to get in the following books in this series. If you are fan of the Cedar Tree series, then there is a special bonus for you, as you are going to revisit some of them :) So don't waste any more time and #1cick your copy now :)
