Synopsis (Goodreads):
Jayne Frost is a lot of things. Winter elf, Jack Frost's daughter, Santa Claus's niece, heir to the Winter Throne and now...private investigator. Sort of.

Jayne takes Sinclair on a much needed visit to her winter wonderland home, the North Pole. She wants him to see what her royal life is truly like. She knows the protocol and regulations that define her existence as heir to the Winter Throne aren’t for everyone and worries that it will be more than he wants to handle.

All seems well until a weird coincidence in a toy contest has some of the citizens of the North Pole giving Sinclair the side-eye. He’s a necromancer, and not everyone is okay with that.

Jayne vows to prove his presence and the apparent cheating are unrelated, but digging deeper uncovers all kinds of strange occurrences that only complicate things and make another perfectly clear. Someone doesn’t want Sinclair around.

When that someone cracks and takes action, Sinclair is in danger of losing more than his good name. Can Jayne chill the rumors that threaten the royal family and keep Sinclair from being permanently iced?
Thoughts on Miss Frost Chills the Cheater: Sinclair is looking to make things permanent with Jayne, but she needs him to see the reality of her world before she'll give him her answer. I mean, falling in love with the winter princess is all good and fine, but she doesn't want him regretting them down the road. Sensible, Jayne. Very sensible.

So the couple tromp off to the NP for a little vacation. Which sounds good, but forces are at play that look to be trying to force Sinclair and Jayne apart. Which Jayne is NOT okay with. Quite naturally, she straps on her investigating gloves and works on figuring out what's going on.

A little subterfuge, a little misdirection, a decided lack of donuts in the NP, and Jayne doing her thing to get to the bottom of the mess that's been created around them. Sinclair is learning about royal life (a crash course in royal craziness, really), the cats are happy to play together, and THINGS HAPPEN. Things. Happen.

Which is nothing less than I'd expect when Miss Jayne Frost is involved.
