Fire On The Ice
By: Tamsen Parker
Synopsis
Welcome to the snow and ice games where competition is not the only thing that is heating up! The fourth book in bestselling Tamsen Parker's romance series continues with two female skaters from the opposite sides of the rink.
Blaze Bellany is the bad girl of the short-track speed skating world. Looking like a roller derby bruiser when she's not in her Team USA uniform, she's an unlikely American heroine. She's got a punk attitude to match her provocative dress and her dyed hair, and she's determined to get onto the front pages of the papers regardless of how she has to do it.
Maisy Harper is the workhorse of the Canadian women's figure skating team. Serious, modest, and above all, polite, Maisy would prefer to win her victory on the ice rather than in the press and is exasperated by Blaze's antics. When she's not lusting after her anyway. After they both failed to make the medal podium at the last Snow and Ice Games, they drowned themselves in gin - and each other.
Despite their hookup being drunken, they both harbor fond memories of their night together and are keen for a repeat. But they've got different ways of going about getting what they want, and Blaze's willingness to go to any length for the spotlight could ruin any chances she has with Maisy.
