Frost Line

Three worlds collide in this paranormal romance co-written by Linda Howard and Linda Winstead Jones: the ethereal realm of living Tarot archetypes, the gritty human world, and the dangerous space between them. Lenna embodies Strength, one of the Major Arcana, and her sudden immersion in the mortal realm to protect a child sets off a collision course with Caine, a hunter whose job is to retrieve or eliminate rogue magical beings. What begins as pure opposition gradually shifts into something neither of them anticipated, while the clock counts down and the stakes climb well beyond a single rescue mission.

Abby Craden navigates the dual emotional registers of the story with ease, giving Lenna a grounded, almost regal authority that contrasts well with the harder edges she brings to Caine's perspective. The nearly nine-hour runtime moves efficiently, helped by Craden's ability to sustain tension in action sequences while softening just enough for the romance to feel earned. Listeners who enjoy paranormal romance will find the audio format suits the story's mythic atmosphere particularly well.
