Rebecca Hathaway let her friend Erin talk her into participating in a charity auction. She was raised by a mother who constantly groomed her for high society. Rebecca wasn't allowed to do anything and she appeared to be non-feeling. That is the reason the man of her dreams had broken up with her three years ago. He thought she had love only for book clubs and tea parties. He wanted more.

Mark Passmore came to this auction with Rebecca's brother. He had no intention of bidding on a woman until he saw The Ice Princess. He didn't know it was Rebecca. Even when she left his apartment in the middle of the night, he had no idea who she was. He wished this woman and Rebecca were combined into his perfect partner.

This is a very interesting quick read by an author who is new to me, Clarissa Yip. I like her writing style. Her characterizations were very realistic and entertaining. She made this reader identify with her characters by making them realistic, emotionally-charged and witty. The sensuality was high—the sexual encounters hot.

This storyline flowed so that there never seemed any lull in the manuscript. I was constantly turning the pages so as not to miss anything. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a great romance with blazing passages. I will certainly look for this author in the future.
