Have you ever read a series where the first book was good and enjoyable, the next one even better than the first but then a third one comes out and that even better than the first two, and you are a giddy little kid at Christmas?  Well the Fire on Ice series is truly that.  I really enjoyed Kate and Ryker's story in Bound but loved the rest of their story in Captive.  I really enjoyed Luke's character in Captive and was looking forward to getting his story in Edge, partly because I would see more of Ryke and Kate.  What I didn't realize is that I was going to fall in love with Ryke even more so that Ryke.Luke Hudson is a hot NHL hockey player that plays center for Chicago team.  He takes a bad knee to knee hit and is now out until he gets himself back to good health.  Part of his rehab to get back to playing with his team is to play with a minor league team to get back to 100% good health and back to playing with his NHL team.  He meets Dell, the trainer for his rehab team, and working together in one on one sessions she works him back to where he needs to be to get back to playing in the NHL, but neither of them planned on is during that short time to have feeling develop.  Problem is, there is absolutely no fraternization allowed between anyone that is on or affiliated with the team.  Dell tries to fightoner feelings,  she is a single mom who has not allowed any type of male relationships since Kyler came along and letting a smooth talking hockey player into her life, in her mind, is not a good idea.  She let it happen in the past and vowed to not let it happen again.I really loved Dell, she such a great character.  She has a true love for the sport of hockey, having grown up with it all around her and truly holds her own being a women in a man's world.  Luke, OMG LUKE!  I loved him in the prior books, he was such a great supporting character being Rykes best friend and teammate.  I knew I would enjoy his story but I didn't realize how much I would fall in love with it and his character to the point of loving him more than I loved Ryke.  He was such a fresh and "real" character, he was a typical hockey player, single guy loving hot girls throwing themselves at him and him loving every minute of it.  That was until he got hurt, and when he lost hockey, even though temporarily, it made him realize,  that hockey was all he had and if he didn't have that he had nothing.  From that moment on his perspective changed, he saw what Kate and Ryke had and he was envious.  In walks Dell and feelings he had never felt before started happening.  Luke had his moments, no one changes completely but what he did after those moments truly showed that he had changed and made me love him even more and was what made him "REAL".I absolutely loved the chemistry between these two, it started of fun and flirty but it started to build when they realized there was more happening between them and really helped build the sexual tension.  I loved the banter between these two and truly enjoyed their "texting" and fun conversations.  And when they two finally get together, they were off the chart HOT!I am just new to reading Brenda Rothert's work but I must say I am in love with her writing and her fabulous men she has given us, she definitely has a new fan in me for sure.  I can't wait for more of her work to come, especially if they are hot hockey hunks, but in the mean time, going to be definitely checking out her other books.
