The first in a page-turning young adult series in a world where flame and ice are mortal enemies.

In a land governed by the cruel Frostblood ruling class, seventeen-year-old Ruby is a Fireblood who has spent most of her life hiding her ability to manipulate heat and light - until the day the soldiers come to raid her village and kill her mother. Ruby vows revenge on the tyrannous Frost King responsible for the massacre of her people.

But Ruby's powers are unpredictable...and so are the feelings she has for Arcus, the scarred, mysterious Frostblood warrior who shares her goal to kill the Frost King, albeit for his own reasons. When Ruby is captured by the Frost King's men, she's taken right into the heart of the enemy. Now she only has one chance to destroy the maniacal ruler who took everything from her - and in doing so, she must unleash the powers she's spent her whole life withholding.

Frostblood is set in world where flame and ice are mortal enemies - but together create a power that could change everything.

About the Author

Elly Blake loves fairy tales, old houses, and owls. After earning a BA in English literature, she held a series of random jobs before finding her ideal job as a writer and part-time library assistant. She lives in Southwestern Ontario with her husband, kids, and a lively Siberian Husky mix with definite Frostblood tendencies.

Review by Sarah McDuling

Frostblood is a captivating fantasy adventure set in a kingdom ruled by the magically gifted Frostbloods (think Elsa from Frozen and this will give you a pretty good idea of what the Frostbloods are all about).

Our heroine, Ruby, is a Fireblood. Enlisted by a group of rebel Frostbloods to help overthrow the evil King, Ruby must learn how to master her wildly unpredictable fire powers if she has any hope of surviving.

Frostblood is an entertaining page-turner with a feisty heroine bent on revenge, and an icy hero on a mission. It's an epic adventure with magic and a slow burning love/hate romance...what more could you possibly ask for?

Perfect for fans of Red Queen and Snow Like Ashes.
