About the Book Fire and Ice

Title: Fire and Ice
Series: Northwest Ice Division #1
Author: Carolyn Miller
Publisher: Independently Published
Release Date: July 10, 2023
Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance

Hannah Wade loves sports, so when an injury is swiftly followed by an opportunity to be one of Calgary’s first female sports analysts, she jumps at the chance. The trouble is, some of the old dinosaurs she works with think she’s nothing but a fluff piece, there to add ratings and stir controversy among the fiercely loyal hockey fans. She longs for the chance to prove herself, so when an opportunity comes along to interview newly traded defenseman Franklin James, she meets him, with disastrous effect.

Growing up with three sisters means Franklin thought he knew something about women, but nothing had ever prepared him for the sparkling firecracker that is Hannah. And yet her vibrant personality holds a sweetness and soft side, something that draws his interest and protectiveness when an interview goes south.

Can these two overcome prejudice and see a way forward? And what has faith – or the lack of – got to do with anything? Fire and Ice is the first book in the new Northwest Ice hockey romance series, a sweet and swoony, slightly sporty, Christian contemporary romance series that continues the legacy of the Original Six, and is perfect for fans of Becky Wade, Courtney Walsh and Susan May Warren.

My Thoughts on Fire and Ice

Can I first start by saying that not once ever have I ice skated?  I always look at people doing it on TV or in movies or the Olympics and think how wonderful and strong and graceful they are, but in our area, there really isn’t anywhere to try it out.  Now, we have slid around in mud boots on our pond before and that was fun.  

Why would I mention ice skating?  Because this book features ice hockey as a sport within the pages.  Hannah loves sports but with an injury, she can’t participate any longer.  So she gets to do the next best thing and become a sports analyst.  Now, you can imagine what people say about that.  She’s just in it for the guys.  She really doesn’t know what she’s doing. 

But what if she does?  And what if they’ll just give her a chance?  And what happens when more than ice chips fly between her and a hockey player?

This was a quick read.  I enjoyed it.  It read swiftly and the characters were engaging.  I loved that it is focused and centred around faith and finding faith for yourself as well.
