What an interesting read. I really enjoyed the contents and found it thoroughly entertaining. Definitely a must read.

This was fun and had exactly what I wanted from it. I loved the representation of BDSM and consent. their last scene was *chefs kiss*!!

Oh my oh my, this short very sweet book is hot as hell, soooo much smut loved loved loved the chemistry between the 2 main characters

Smashed it put in 1 day, couldn't put it down, I felt like there was so much more to this world, especially with the background characters, I'd love more!

Just loved the strong but submissiveness and willing to consensual explore the world of BDSM

This was a super steamy, snowed-in romance with BDSM vibes and a second-chance twist. Anna and Grant’s chemistry is 🔥, and the spice was spicing in the best way.

That said, everything moved really fast—probably because it’s a short book but I definitely wish we’d gotten more buildup. Still, it was a fun, sexy read that left me wanting more.

Fingers crossed this is the start of a series, because I’d love to see where things go next.

This book is graphic, and you should definitely mind the trigger warnings. I liked the steam, although not really the degrading language used by the MMC, but found that the relationship development was put on the back burner for more teamy scenes. I would have liked more of the book to show the relationship between the FMC and MMC, because jumping from a bunch of steamy scenes to I love you seemed a little unrealistic. Still, an enjoyable book, 3.5 stars!

This review is already posted to Goodreads and will also be available on Amazon it is published:

Snow Bound is a very good book, it does have a warning page which was good considering the content. More than I have ever read before but loved every second of it especially the story line in general. The ending was good too, can't wait to see what comes next if this is the first in a series.

Some things not in the review but I noticed as I read, there are a few pages missing punctuation or quotations but I do understand that this was not proofed so that is bound to happen.

The synopsis and the cover drew me in. Im not normally a fan of books that lack plot. This book is purely smut but i did like the way the kinks and bdsm were approached.

If you’re looking for a quick spicy read then this is definitely the book for you.

Snow Bound by Hannah Murray was such a pleasant surprise! This book was steamy in the best possible way—kinky, fun, and full of sizzling tension that kept me hooked from start to finish. It wastes no time getting to the good stuff, and once it starts, it does not let up.

The chemistry between the main characters was electric. Their dynamic was intense yet playful, with just the right mix of heat and heart. The snowy cabin setting added to the coziness and the close proximity, which only made the tension more delicious.

Such a fun, quick, and spicy read. This book is 90% spicy scenes which is perfectly fine because I knew what I was getting myself into. At first, I thought the split 3rd person view wouldn’t work, but it did.

I did have to google a few of the BDSM terms because some of them were new to me but after that I was able to follow along quickly.

If you’re in need of a dirty little secret book then this is for you!

Looking for a quick spicy read? This book is perfect for fans of darker, smutty stories.

Anna, the main character, has a traumatic past and is both sassy and submissive. After her family leaves her at a winter retreat for two weeks, she meets Grant, the hot and dominant male lead who owns the house. He knows what he wants, and sparks fly between them.

One of the standout features of this book, beyond the steamy scenes, is the author's portrayal of healthy kinks. Readers like myself turn to erotic novels specifically to explore taboo topics such as kinks and dominance/submission dynamics. It is essential to present a clear understanding of what these experiences should look and feel like, as this empowers readers to confidently explore new possibilities in their own lives.

Thank you NetGalley for this ebook in exchange for an honest review.

Short and sweet. Maybe too short. I know this is probably not the book where you want a background story, but I did. We knew nothing at all about Grant and barely anything about Anna, just that she has issues with her mother which was spoken about at the beginning and then ever again.
It would have been nice to dive deeper into this as I felt the characters didnt have much depth, which made me indifferent towards them and this did not help in appreciating the story.
Everything started too fast for me, which is probably because the book is so short but I wish things had happened slower.

Snow Bound was a fun, very spicy quick read. I really enjoyed the main characters as well as the side characters. There was humor throughout the book and both the FMC and MMC were very likable. The spicy bdsm scenes were written well and written with care.

I’m hoping this is the first in a series because I would definitely read more from this author and in this world. Bring on Lola’s book! 🤗

No better combo than good banter, forced proximity, and realistic dynamics. My only complaint is that it felt a little insta-love towards the end with the pacing. However, I loved that MMC's dynamic was generally healthy and that of two consenting communicative adults. I also want to point out that this book was funny, which was pleasantly surprising given the description of the book.

Be warned, some heavier topics are touched on but not necessarily fully explored, probably due to the length. Make sure to read trigger warnings. Also, want to say that this is told in 3rd POV, for those who are allergic!

Of course, worth mentioning that this is a very spicy book, so there is a lot of explicit scenery along with the plot.

The start of this book was great, but it got a little rough because at some point, one of the main characters was having a phone call with a side character about something the side character shouldn't know by then. I got the sense that the author got that call mixed up with another one between two other characters. It took me out of the story, and I almost DNF'd by then because I didn't always love the way they spoke about one another, but I decided to stick it out and ended up having a fun time.
I loved the discussions around kink and consent and feel like they were handled in a way that was both graceful and realistic. That was by far my favorite aspect of this book and something I greatly appreciate, as I tend to think BDSM is a subject that authors have a huge tendency to handle in what I find to be incredibly problematic ways.
Obviously, the romance moves incredibly fast, but for an erotica boo,k that's to be expected and didn't bother me that much. Good read, overall.

Thank you, Netgally and Solitary Vice Publishing, for the ARC.

This book actually surprised me in the best way possible. I went into this book expecting spice, and boy did it deliver there, but it ended up being more than just that.

Snow Bound includes characters who feel like real flawed human beings who come together and find comfort. Anna and Grant’s chemistry was believable and felt appropriate for the story. I also appreciated that the author, Hannah Murray, made sure to include the characters communicating about their wants and kinks instead of them just jumping into their BDSM relationship with no limits in place.

I also really enjoyed Anna’s friend Lola and I’m hoping that maybe we will get to see her as an FMC in one of the future books of this series.

Thank you Hannah Murray, NetGalley and Solitary Vice Publishing for the ARC. I look forward to reading more of the Odyssey books when they come out!

I absolutely adored this book!!

Started in a really busy work week and reading slump and ended up keep going back at it. The detailed description, the complexity of the character emotions and how they unfold and most importantly for me, the goofy moments... it was all making it a 5 star read.

Special appreciation note to the most cuddliest sounding dog and the apple missles!

I was lucky to read an advance copy, thank you Net Galley. Everyone needs a friend like Lola. Lola where are you and can we be friends. Whoa! Is all I can say. Snow bound is 90% smut and 10% storyline. I wish we knew more about Anna’s family and what happened. Anna is left to spend time alone in a rental where she was lucky enough to have a nice unintended guest, Grant. After a painful first day for Grant they agreed to have some kinky fun for 2 weeks. I won’t spoil what happened during the 2 weeks, so just get ready. At the end Anna has a panic attack and leaves before their 2 week stay. Thankfully her best friend Lola is there to save the day. (Yes I will give her all credit, he he, he). They work things out and they live happily ever after. I gave it a 3 out of 5 because while the smut was wild I felt like it was missing a lot of the story line and found the last chapters the most exciting. Congrats Hannah on your new book!

Very spicy with an dom an sub relationship. The main female character runs in the guy that she thinks stood her up for a date . When he was honestly stuck in a country for work . He does security for the rich and famous.

5⭐️ 5🌶️ Well, this book started off with a bang! Chapter 2 and we are diving right in head first! This book was everything I was expecting and more. This was my first true BDSM book and while I would never in a life time want to be in that situation, it was interesting and thrilling to read.

Anna is such a brat and I love it, she had me cracking up as she said my thoughts, haha! Her friend Lola is the best girls girl and hilariously had Anna’s happiness in mind at all times. Grant was caring and attentive when it counted the most, I adored him.

This was my first Hannah Murray and I’m excited to read more of her work!
