5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended
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.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Mystery!
Ice Under Fire was a great mystery, but in my opinion had no fire. Even though it was a sweet love story, Ken struck me as a softy, and yes there is a such thing as being to soft, and Nique as a person that did now know exactly what she wanted! But I must say the suspense and mystery was the bomb! The story started out good but quickly slowed! This book did not keep my...

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!

5.0 out of 5 stars 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of a Kind!, January 20, 2000

West (Macon, Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ice Under Fire (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It was a very good story and I enjoyed reading about Omunique and Kenneth. Kenneth was one of a kind. He was so good to Omunique; loving and considerate and always looking out for her. He was all these things and still very supportive and understanding about her career. I don't understand why it took her so long to see it. I was kind of upset with her at one point in the book. However, she finally saw the light. This story is worth reading and you want to finish it in one sitting.
