This book is like no other. I have a husband and two children and it was hard for me to concentrate on them as long as I was in the middle of this book. I read it in two days (Record for me). The characters were greatly detailed as far as attitude and emotions. Mrs. Hudson-Smith had to feel the characters to write such a great book. I loved the mystery as well as the romance. Just a great book. She has encouraged me to continue my dream to write.
Great Job

ICE UNDER FIRE was a wonderful and entertaining read. I really enjoyed the chemistry between Omunique and Kenneth. I found the story to be well plotted and well written. Anyone looking for a good book should definitely give ICE UNDER FIRE a try. You won't regret it!
