The last place Kaylie Fletcher wants to be is Alaska,
but her family has been lost while climbing Mount McKinley.
When she gets a strange call, saying her mother is alive,
she has no choice but to leave her senior accounting job in
Seattle for the harshness of Alaska.
Kaylie lands at the airport. Instead of meeting her
best friend Sara as she steps from the plane, it is Cort
McCaine. Here is a man used to pushing the limits and
getting his way. And just like her parents, he is a thrill
seeker until death claims them. Cort's the last man she
wants to feel sexual attraction for.
The feeling is mutual. Cort feels that no woman
from 'below the 48' belongs in the severe northern Alaska
territory. He sees her jewelry accessories and fine clothes
as values like his ex-wife, and look what a disaster that
turned out to be. Knowing it is so wrong doesn't stop him
from appreciating her feminine curves against his better
judgment.
Before Cort can leave her at the airport for other
transportation, Kaylie checks her voice mail. There's a
hysterical message from Sara. They fly through near
blizzard like conditions only to find Sara and Jackson, her
husband and Cort's good friend, brutally murdered. The
wounds inflicted upon them indicate a crime of passion by a
deranged killer.
They return to Cort's place. With the aftermath of
witnessing the scene, she leans into Cort's magnetism, and
they have sex. Once was enough to let her know that he
could easily become a habit she doesn't want to form. Once
isn't enough to banish the nightmares coming from the
anniversary of his parents tragic death in an accident that
nearly took his life. Kaylie is great for sex, but that's
it.
The next day they return to the cabin with the police
only to find that all evidence of any crime being committed
has been cleaned up. The cabin is spotless. Without the
bodies the law won't help. Kaylie is determined to find her
best friend's murderer even if she has to put her life on
the line, which is exactly what the killer wants. If the
weather doesn't kill them, then the killer will.
Stephanie Rowe's, ICE, is a romantic suspense that
will keep you up at night turning those pages. Just when
you think the stakes of life and death couldn't be any
higher, she does it.
Most people find beauty in Alaska’s austere mountains. To
Kaylie Fletcher, there is only death—her whole family gone
after a disastrous climbing expedition. Then again, maybe
not. A raspy call in the middle of the night leads Kaylie
to believe her mother might still be alive. For now…
SOMEONE IS WATCHING
A strange message in a bar. A bloody knife. A fiery
explosion. There’s a killer inching closer, but Kaylie has
nowhere to run. Except straight into the arms of Cort
McClaine. The rugged bush pilot is too much of an
adrenaline junkie to be considered safe, but Kaylie can’t
resist the heat of his touch amid the bitter cold.
SOMEONE WILL DIE
Caught in a high-stakes race against a murderous madman,
Kaylie and Cort know that with one wrong step they’ll be…
iced.
