Yes, this is a vampire book, but it brings enough new and/or underused ideas to the table that it is refreshing. The character development is well done, and we get a good insight into the main characters in the shorter length if this novel. The book is around 200 pages and moves along quickly with very little material that I would consider superfluous." ―Amazon reviewer ★★★★★ "Broken Ice had a very savvy, intelligent female protagonist. From the opening chapters, the storyline is riveting, and the action non-stop, as Mina moves from assignment to assignment as an undercover operative. Interesting world building." ―Amazon reviewer ★★★★★ "Catches you at the start and leaves you wanting more. Get it you will LOVE IT " ―Amazon reviewer ★★★★★ "This is a fresh new take on Vampire fiction and it really hooked me I love the world and the characters so much I truly can't wait to read more of this series Or even this world " ―Amazon reviewer ★★★★★ "Great new series about a feisty vampire who works for the CIA, her human colleague/boyfriend and an older sister who is a spy for the bad guys.
