Gathering Frost Blog Tour Recap!

I adore going on blog tours for my new releases, and one of my favorite things to do is revisit the stops after the tour ends to recap all of the amazing bloggers involved! And, well, to maybe also highlight some of the totally awesome things they've said about my books :) 

And now is no different! 

The Gathering Frost tour was FANTASTIC!! I was so thrilled that so many bloggers offered to host stops and take a chance on my new fairy tale adventure. But, I'll admit, I was even more excited about all of the wonderful reviews my new book received! 

Without further ado, here's a look back at the tour! 

Genius idea!…I'm excited to find out what happens next! Gathering Frost is a book I'd recommend to anyone who loves fairy tales and strong heroines in YA fiction.
- Donnie Darko Girl

I loved how the relationship developed and grew between Jade and Asher…If you like the current re-telling trend along with humour, action and a touch of romance, then I can definitely recommend this book. Looking forward to book 2!
- Archeolibrarian (I Dig Good Books)

As for the romance – it’s simply delightful. No love triangle in sight. With slow buildup that will cause many cute and swoony moments. Kaitlyn Davis can make a simple touch of hands more exciting than some sex scenes I read in novels by other authors.
- Bookworm Dreams

It felt like the author was so excited to tell the story and get to that dramatic love scene that she knew we wouldn't mind hurrying along with her. And she was right.
- Sunrise Avenue

Oh. My. Gathering Frost is my favorite book of 2015 so far…just awesome in every way. Beautiful prose, lots of heart-wrenching emotion, action and romance, a great, unstoppable villain, and a smart, tough heroine who will fight for what she wants.
- Geeks in High School

Just when you think the story is going in one way, the author veers and shoot you off in another direction. More than once I thought I had the ending figured out, just to completely doubt myself when a crazy twist is thrown my way. I finally gave up trying to guess what was going to happen and just enjoyed the crazy ride that Kaitlyn Davis was taking me on.
- Book Briefs

The romance was sweet and slow-burning, but hot enough to melt even the hardest of hearts…there were plenty of swoon-worthy moments that could make the Ice Queen herself smile.
- Crazy for YA

I wasn't anticipating the direction the novel took, either, and it kept me turning pages to figure out how the final climax would shake out. I really like the way the modern era merges with a more archaic one, and am excited to see that this has happened in more places around the world than just NYC (Sorry to all the characters facing crazy, evil monarchs, but !!!!!)
- A Backwards Story

I loved how well the blending of the old with the new was done and I certainly loved the scenery and characters but above all else the story. You will find yourself being transported into the story line as Ms. Davis weaves her web and I believe you will find it hard to put this book down.
- The Voluptuous Book Diva

The action scenes were fantastically illustrated and I really got a sense of what was going on.  And there were definitely some twists and turns to keep you guessing!
- Reading To Distraction

I loved this book! It was so brilliantly written, addicting and truly was a great, new take on a 'fairy tale' story. I found that I was already hooked, in the first chapter, and wasn't able to put it down, until the last page had been turned…In all honesty, I really think this series deserves to be the NEXT big read, one that everyone should latch onto.
- Natural Bri (Pursuits of Life)

I absolutely loved it! I love retellings and I love a wonderful plot and characters. I was completely into the story and had such a hard time pulling away from this beauty.
- A Thousand Lives Lived

Jade is pretty kick-ass. She's the best soldier the queen has and she's no damsel in distress. Her fight scenes are very descriptive and had me sitting on the edge of my seat.
- Book Nerd Paradise

If you love fairytale's and their retellings, and stories with great characters, romance and adventure, Gathering Frost might just be a great book for you! I know that I enjoyed it, and I have a feeling there will be many more readers falling in love with Jade and Asher in the months and years to come!
- The Best Books Ever

I liked the feel of this story. It was fresh and sweet and warm and I felt for Jade and the life she had lived, having been captured so young. I liked the connection between Jade and prince Asher as it paced well and felt real given Jade's past.
- Realm of the Sapphired Dragon

An excellent YA read, Gathering Frost was definitely enjoyable. With strong characters, trilling action, and sweet romance, this book was great and I really liked it.
- Imagine A World

Gathering Frost is one of those books that you promise yourself you'd only read one chapter, but it's so captivating you keep reading beyond that one chapter. I couldn't stop reading. I loved the idea, the world building, the writing.
- In My Secret Book World

If you like fairy tales or retelling of fairy tales then you are going to love Gathering Frost. Gathering Frost is packed with action, sadness and honesty right from the very first page. Jade and Asher are two characters that you are going to want to follow around as you watch Asher melt Jades heart and make her human once again.
- The Avid Reader

I appreciated Jade's strength both physically and mentally... it's just not something I've been seeing enough of in YA…Just because the story is based on a fairy tale, don't assume you know what's going to happen. Lots of twists and turns kept the story interesting.
- Once Upon A YA Book

This is a great tale, Sleeping Beauty with a twist, this time she is awake and on a mission!  It is well written with great world building, characters that you can get behind and most of all the story is consistent taking you from the the first to the last sentence.
- Random Redheaded Ramblings

I mean how much better can it get romance, magic, and fairy tales…When you look at fairy tales it’s usually the princess that is naïve to the world and overly trusting. Kaitlyn Davis shook that up and made both of the characters vulnerable.
- Between The Lines

I enjoyed seeing Jade move from a frozen, uncaring soldier to a normal girl. Her transformation and emotional upheaval really made the book…this one grabbed me and kept me interested all the way through.
- Mama Knows Books

In this book, Jade isn’t really asleep, but she is emotionless. That was really powerful and I liked the way that we got to see her character shift between feeling nothing and beginning to have emotions. The writing in those sections was really great...
- Neon Yeti Reads

If you like retellings, kick butt heroines, a lonely prince, ice queens then this is it!
- Kindle and Me

It’s creative, it’s different from what I was expecting of a retelling for Sleeping Beauty! Dystopian retellings? Totally different from other retellings I’ve seen, read, or heard of before!
- Books and Ashes

Was the curse really broken by True Love or does True Love not matter in this day and age?
- The Phantom Photographer

And a little bonus quote about my leading man, just because Asher needs some credit :) !!

Asher. Well swoon is all I can say! He's probably my favorite part of the story! Probably because he's the type of guy I like to see in books. He's really sweet, smart, and willingly to give his life up for others. I also loved how he helped Jade through her transition from the Queen's spell and was always kind and loving to her. He was perfect!
