King of Ice and Time

A sweeping tale of love, loss, and penance in this fairy-tale retelling. Joachim stared at the intruders and thought back to his former life. It had all started in the castle with his love, Queen Maris. They were happy. Until Joachim lost his temper first, then everything else he held dear. Joachim had had it all…wealth, power, and the love of his life. The only thing he lacked was control of his temper. As a result, he's spent five hundred years as overseer of the storehouses of the winter snows to pay for his deed. Now known as Jack Frost, he rules the winter seasons with the capricious North Wind. His goal is to finish serving his punishment to be finally reunited with his love. He's close. Oh, so close. But once again, his castle has intruders. Who will win out? His icy love or his hot temper
