5.0 out of 5 stars
Highly recommended, March 14, 2003
This review is from: Ice Under Fire (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)
Omunique Philyaw was a figure skater. That, in itself, was amazing since her coaches had told her that she would never make it to Pro. But she did! She triumphed over childhood illness and less than zero encouragement! Skating pro was the only thing Omunique had ever wanted in her life. Now it all hinged on getting the sponsor of the athletic-wear company. Kenneth Maxwell, Jr., had begun on the wrong foot. He had thought Omunique to be a temporary employee that he had been waiting for. And every second he pushed his foot a bit deeper into his mouth. The family company was all that mattered to him. His whole life was put into the company. But his father dumped the US Olympic Skater contract in his lap only two hours before the figure skater was due to arrive and flew out of town! Hot sparks flew the moment they met! Two hot heads that are attracted to each other, yet unable to let go of their own troubles. WOW! This book has it all, Readers! Omunique is one classy and sassy lady! Kenneth is no slouch either! This story has a powerful message behind it of reaching for your dreams, yet still comes across with the softness of love. Highly recommended!

WOW, October 28, 2000
This review is from: Ice Under Fire (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)
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.
