"5 Stars!...A well-written book that kept me glued to my screen, and up to the wee hours of the night trying to finish it! Ice Princess is a Five Star winner and comes highly recommended. But do yourself a favor, read these books in sequence, pick up Always Faithful first!"—Charlene Smith, Simegen

"Very highly recommended. The plot twists itself inside out, there are interesting characters galore. A fascinating story with believable characters and a mystery that only gets more twisted as it unravels. Ice Princess takes romance books to a new depth. I would very highly recommend this book. Lovers of romance and fans of Catherine Snodgrass will not be disappointed!"—Jennifer Macaire, Wordweaving

"5 Stars! Catherine Snodgrass and Bryndis Rubin take the classic elements that make us fall in love with a good story and twists them into something new and exciting. It's a keeper!"—Word Museum

"This is a wonderfully written and charming book. Sexy, too, but not in an offensive way. A fast read—it goes from action to action, but doesn't scrimp on the character development either. Excellent read!"—Bea Sheftel, Writers Club Romance Group on AOL

"Ice Princess is a fast-paced romantic suspense novel. Watching Claudia and Zach trip over their feelings for each other provide a bit of fun along with the seriousness of the plots. The solution to the murder is an ending filled with tense moments. I highly recommend this book, it is one of the best romantic suspense novels I have read this year."—Hattie Boyd, Reader To Reader

"Ice Princess is a fabulous read about a love that is stopped before it can even begin and then coaxed out again when Zach and Claudia are thrown together by their own 'mistake' and long-suffering passions for each other. It's a story to warm your heart and send hivers down your spine, and would not be complete without the words of wisdom from good ol' Mom."—Laura Drewry, Romance At Its Best

"4.5 Stars!...I can't say enough about the authors' remarkable compassion and insight in detailing the events surrounding that plot point from the outsider's point of view. The action scenes were exciting and I particularly loved the way they let Claudia be her own hero and show some 'girl power' along the way. This action-packed thriller is a definite must-read that will touch your heart and open your eyes. My compliments to Ms. Snodgrass and Ms. Rubin."—Amy L. Turpin, Timeless Tales

...Claudia crept forward, waving aside clouds of dust. Tire tracks made it easy to find the spot. There in the dim light cast by the full moon, she found a military sleeping bag, and inside it the body of a man.

She sucked in a gasp. Screaming was for sissies. She was an investigative reporter, for crying out loud. But nothing could prepare her for this blood-soaked package.

Claudia stood there, trying to decide if she should get closer. Doing so might destroy valuable forensic evidence. But if there was a chance he was still alive, how could she not help?

A muffled groan came from the bag. Claudia hurried forward.

“It’s okay.”

His bloodied hand fumbled for hers, but he couldn’t lift it. Claudia curled her fingers around his.

“Help—”

“Just relax. Help is on the way.”

“Allison...secret...” He struggled to say more, then was gone.
