Melody of the Snow by Blake Allwood ⭐⭐⭐.5

Hunter’s trying to forge a new path in his life after being unfairly fired from his job as a deputy. This leads him to working a job for his Aunt in the mountains as a ski patroller and to meeting Cam, whom he had a previous one night stand with.

As their lives change and progress over the winter and spring seasons, they find themselves drawn back to each other and start a long distance relationship.

Despite Hunters job and family commitments and Cams burgeoning new career and inheritance worries, they still manage to keep their relationship alive and eventually find their way back home to each other.

This book was a middle of the road read for me. At some points it felt like there was almost too much packed into the story. Cam has a music degree but also a nursing qualification and after leaving his job as a nurse, becomes a successful singer whilst also inheriting a ski resort and mansion, which he then wants to turn into a museum with all the expensive art he also inherits.

Having so much going on made the story a little muddled and confusing at times, which took away from the overall enjoyment of the book. At times it felt like less of a romance novel and more the story of Cam's career.

Overall, however, I did enjoy Hunter and Cam's story. It was a low angst, easy read with plenty of love and snow.
