Reviewed by: AprilBook provided by: publisherReview originally posted at Romancing the BookAwakened From Ice by Marisa Chenery is a rather unique story with a plot line that has not been visited overly much, as some paranormal plots have been. Within this story, we meet six chiseled and hot guys who have been asleep in an ice cave for thousands of years. This is no typical type of sleep, but one that allows each of the men to intuitively know what is going on around them and the changes that the world has been going through. When placed in this sleep, they were told that they would not awaken until they were needed in the world - needed to fight a dangerous evil.When Cassidy goes exploring and discovers a hole in a wall of ice, she works her way through until she finds herself within the cave and facing six very strangely dressed men who she worries are dead - that is until they suddenly begin to stir and awaken. From that moment on, Cassidy experiences things that she never thought remotely possible or within in the realm of her beliefs.Though the story is fairly far-fetched (hey, it is a paranormal fiction story), it is very enjoyable and engrossing. I loved the uniqueness of it, the characters are all incredibly likable, there are tons of steamy scenes, humor and a good dose of suspense. The chemistry between Cassidy and Edensaw is palpable and spicy and his devotion to her will bring many hearts thudding and pulses racing. In addition to wonderfully developed characters, Awakened From Ice has a vivid setting, created and written in a way that brought me directly into the story. Another aspect that I enjoyed was the idea that this story took me back to the history and the very beginning of the first breed of werewolves - later expanding to how they have revolutionized over thousand of years.I recommend this to anyone who loves spicy chemistry, hot alpha males, loyalty, devotion and the rockin world of the paranormal and werewolves. I truly cannot wait until the next story in this series and the next brother to find his mate, as well as delving deeper into the suspense of the good vs. evil aspect of the story. Awakened From Ice has the perfect ending to leave the reader wanting more and anxious for the next story!
