About this ebook

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 opposite sides of the rink.

Blaze Bellamy 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 lengths for the spotlight could ruin any chance she has with Maisy.

Ratings and reviews

As a reader almost exclusively of MM romance I've been keeping my eyes open for an FF story to try. I know the author and thought the premise of the story was a great one, so I thought this might be the book for me. Well, safe to say FF is never going to be my genre of choice and the erotic scenes (many and creative) didn't add anything to the story for me. I did end up skimming them and thinking, 'wow, two world class athletes, preparing for medal events, they sure have a lot of energy to burn off'. Heh, heh. So if you're a fan of FF sex then this is the book for you! The descriptions of the sport were pretty good. They're alternating pov's and they comment on both their own sports and the other MC's as well and I enjoyed that. The author also puts a very interesting spin into the story with Blaze's sexuality. She's polyamorous and is upfront in explaining her needs and desires; likewise, Maizy also is truthful about how she feels so these two mature, confident women work it out - and I liked that. There's a whole other element going on about each athlete and issues in their sport and performance, so that adds depth to the story as well. Honestly, it was well written and there were parts I definitely liked about it - if you're a fan of explicit female/female sex with a decent little story thrown in, then this is the book for you.
