Mary Connealy's books are always an
adventure. Fire and Ice is no exception.
This novel is part of a series about sisters in the old west. Bailey
Wilde likes to dress and act like a man but she doesn't like men especially
Gage Coulter. Gage has a problem. He needs Bailey Wilde's land but the man
would rather shoot at him than talk. Bailey is a small homesteader seeking to
make a living in a wild and lonely land. Gage Coulter already owns 5000 acres
and lives to manage and build his empire. His ways are fair but tough.
When Gage discovers that Bailey is really a
woman sparks begin to fly. Add to the mayhem, someone is trying to kill Gage;
and he thinks it's Bailey.
Over the lonely winter, Bailey learns that
she doesn't like being alone and she misses her sisters and family. When
Gage surprises Bailey with a visit
despite the icy conditions of winter, she warms to his visit; but then Gage
makes a crazy proposal stating he needs her help because his mother is coming
and expects to find him with a wife, Bailey must make a crazy decision of her
own.
I highly recommend this read for the humor,
suspense, and romance. Fire and Ice very appropriately describes each character
and their relationship as well.
