I enjoyed Fire and Ice. It's an action romance, with a VERY strong h. The h is a female style James Bond - except that she works for a private contractor in the U.S. But she definitely has a license to kill (so, warning, the heroine/book is kind of cavalier towards violence and killing). She's also gorgeous and amazing at getting herself out of difficult situations against huge odds.  To a James Bond-like unbelievable extent.  And, like James Bond, she uses her sexuality in furtherance of her job.In fact, the h is so kic-a$.$. and in control of her emotions that some people may find the book to be too lop-sided; although the H originally thinks that he only wants to hook up, he is clearly way more invested in their relationship for most of the book. In contrast, she treats him like a three-week stand for most of the book. I don't mind this kind of lop-sidedness, especially because most books have the opposite type of lop-sidedness.  In fact, I enjoy this type of reverse sexism.  ;-)  But I think some people won't like her "male-like attitude." The H is possessive and protective and alpha, despite the unequal relationship.I will read this author's next book, if there is one.  I hope there will be!
