From #1 New York Times bestselling phenomenon Sylvia Day comes a hotly anticipated and passionate new love story. Once, I would never have imagined myself here. But I’m settled now. In a place I love, in a home I renovated, spending time with new friends I adore, and working a job that fulfills me. I am reconciling the past and laying the groundwork for the future. Then Garrett Frost moves in next door. He’s obstinate and too bold, a raging force of nature that disrupts the careful order of my life. I recognize the ghosts that haunt him, the torment driving him. Garrett would be risky in any form, but wounded, he’s far more dangerous. I fear I’m too fragile for the storm raging inside him, too delicate to withstand the pain that buffets him. But he’s too determined…and too tempting. And sometimes hope soars above even the iciest desolation. Emotional and heartrending, Butterfly in Frost marks a brilliant return by global sensation Sylvia Day, the #1 international multimillion bestselling author of the Crossfire saga.

When I saw that Slyvia Day was releasing something new I was quite intrigued. How could I not be? I adored the Crossfire series when I read it a few years ago. However, while this book started off great for me it didn’t stay that way.
At first, I didn’t understand seeing all of the 3 star reviews for this book. After reading it, I can see how people could have all of these mixed feelings about it. I don’t even know how to express why I feel the way I do because that would be spoiling the book. And man is there something to spoil. There is a twist to this story that I can completely say threw me for a loop and not in a good way, to be honest.
For the most part, I did enjoy our characters Teagan and Garrett. There was chemistry and there is no doubt that Slyvia Day can write a hot as hell sex scene. We got multiple of them here and I don’t know how anyone could complain about that.
Two things could have made this better. Our main character is part Asian but we don’t find out until later down the line. Like W A Y down the line. It made me realize that while we were getting so much description about Garrett, all we found out about Teagan was that she has waist length dark hair and was too thin. Also, in the way the plot twist was added the book should have been made into an actual novel. Where it ended doesn’t sit well with me and I could have used a bit more to wrap things up.
While I did miss Day’s writing and got some sexy scenes, it wasn’t what I was expecting and I am a bit disappointed.

This took one unbelievable turn coming down to the ending. I was like WHAT just happened. That plot twist was everything. Damn.
