Can true love strike twice?

After the death of her first love, Melanie Michaels buries her grief in the risky demands of a reality show, where her extreme stunts leave her teetering on the edge danger. That's exactly where she wants to be—until she arranges for her crew to traverse the Swedish Lapland in the dead of winter. It's the one place she shouldn't go, on the one day she should avoid—her would-be wedding anniversary.

Instead of romantic nights spent in the Ice Hotel or under the Northern Lights, Melanie is stuck with Joe "Buck" Wright, a snarky loner tour guide who loves his sled dogs and nothing and no one else. But Buck is also trying to numb a painful past. Can two people skilled at pushing others away find warmth at the edge of the Arctic?

4.0 out of 5 stars How to Thaw a Frozen Heart

It isn't easy for a story to live up to the kind of scenery you'll find in this book. I mean, the aurora borealis, people... and an ice palace hotel! But somehow, this story manages to hold its own quite nicely.

Yes, the setting is absolutely spectacular, and the author does an outstanding job capturing it in the pages of this book, but the, um, hero is pretty darned spectacular himself. I mean, Buck's a real hunk. Rugged, outdoorsy, handsome, and oh-so-sensitive and kind to animals. Oh, and he's also nursing a broken heart... just like daredevil reality show star Melanie. So you just know that when work brings the two of them together, they're somehow going to heal each other's boo-boos in the most delightful ways. So no surprise there, but the getting there is definitely worth the read. Sweet, enjoyable, and a little bit sexy. And in the end, maybe, just maybe, they'll find love that's as beautiful as the aurora.

Four and a half stars.

(But Melanie? You really should have fired that obnoxious cameraman a long time ago. What WERE you thinking...?)

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2015
Twice in a Blue Moon is a book that I wasn’t sure about when I requested it. It sounded interesting, but the cover could have used a little work and there were no real reviews on Goodreads when I requested it. So I took a chance. I was looking for something contemporary to review and didn’t have too many review books in that genre at the time. (Of course as these things go, I got approved for several contemporary books in a row right after requesting this one. Whoops! But seriously, can anyone have too much contemporary? Doubtful!) So by the time I picked it up, I wasn’t dying to read this book in particular, but I was hoping for a fun, quick contemporary read that I could finish and mark off my list.

Twice in a Blue Moon wasn’t a book that blew me away. It was fine enough for the mood I was in at the time, but there wasn’t much to really make it stand out among other books. Melanie was okay as a character. She’s been pushing herself into dangerous stunts ever since her fiancé died. This was so New Moon-esque. She does these stunts not because she has a death wish, but because in those moments she’s able to feel closer to Pete and even sometimes hear his voice. She goes to the very place where they would have spent their honeymoon on the third anniversary of what would have been their wedding in hopes of hearing/feeling Pete near her. But instead she feels even more alone than ever despite being surrounded by her reality TV crew.

Buck got his heart broken when an ex-girlfriend cheated on him. And so he’s determined to have zero personal relationships. Of course, he’s up for one night stands. What self-disrespecting-new-adult-male wouldn’t be? Ironically, Buck seems to instantly drop all of those “principles” the minute he meets Melanie. I found that hard to believe, but I didn’t really get annoyed by it.

There’s definitely an air of “fate” and insta-love/lust and all that jazz that I think some readers really dislike. Ultimately, I read Twice in a Blue Moon pretty quickly. I didn’t necessarily want to put it down, but I found myself not questioning things even when they didn’t make sense. This was an odd exerpience for me. It was almost like I didn’t even care when there were things that annoyed me. Twice in a Blue Moon was an okay read. It was in need of some polishing in a few areas that felt too “easy” and a bit unrealistic. But I wasn’t frustrated or huffing and puffing really. Twice in a Blue Moon gets 2.5 Stars. Have you read Twice in a Blue Moon? What did you think? Let me know!

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent Short Story
Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2015
I loved the artic setting, and I like the characters for the most part, but I did hope their personalities would have been a bit more developed, but I know with a short story, that's hard to do. I enjoyed the premise of the main character needing to find a way to deal with her loss, rather than the destructive path she is currently on; she needs to find herself again. I mainly went with 3 stars because I wanted a lot more from the ending. I did enjoy the book though, and the story kept me reading and entertained, and since it's a short story, I read it in no time!

5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting couple and setting
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2015
I received this book free from Net Galley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I chose this book to review because it I had never heard of the author before and because this is not my usual type of book. Because of that, it took me longer to finally start reading this book. However, once I did, I was definitely not sorry.

This is a very quick book to read mostly because the story grabbed my attention from the beginning and didn't let up until the end. Melanie Michaels copes with the grief of the death of her first love by getting involved in a reality show where she puts herself in danger over and over again. Then, on the day that was supposed to be her wedding day, she takes a trip to the Swedish Laplands in the dead of winter.

There she meets Buck Wright, the hero of the story. Buck also had a woman problem so he has given up on having any type of relationship other than physical. He works for the Nature Guide Tour Business and only seems to care about his dogs. As these two travel through the Laplands we watch and feel as these two people fall completely in love. The only problem with their story is Melanie's co-worker Hayden who I would call the villain.

In spite of my lack of desire to read this book at first, I ended up reading TWICE BLUE MOON very quickly and enjoyed watching this couple as they change from attraction to love. I also enjoyed the setting because I had never read a book that took place in this area of the world. Both of the main characters are wilderness lovers so this was an excellent choice! I must admit that I now plan to read other books by Cate Masters.
