Summary: One of the Best Category Romances I've Read in a Long Time!
Review: I've read many of Merline Lovelace's books and this is a new favorite for me. She writes great heroines and this one is no exception. I love a woman who can take care of herself! Charlie is such a sexy hero. The chemistry between them. It's been so long since I've read something really different and fascinating from Silhouette like this. Hot as Ice was such a treat! The plot was original. The hero-adjusting-to-modern-life plot has been done to death in the time travel romances Silhouette and Harlequin published in the mid 90s. It was nice to see Lovelace concentrate on the action and adventure that makes this line special. This story requires some suspension of disbelief but the author made it ring true for me. I haven't been reading as many SIMs in the last few years. I got so sick of babies and cops and cowboys and amnesia. This one didn't have any of that, just an original romantic story. More like this and I'll have to start up again!

Summary: Romantic Times Review
Review: TIME TRAVEL ROMANCECODE NAME DANGER SERIES When a pilot from a 1956 plane crash is discovered encased in ice, Dr. Diana Remington comes in undercover from a secret government agency to find out what happened on that plane many years before. Major Charles Stone doesn't know who to trust when he's told he's been frozen for the past 40-plus years, but Diana is there for him to lean on as they work together to uncover decades-old secrets. In HOT AS ICE (4.5G), a wonderfully innovative tale, Merline Lovelace delivers a story worthy of the "keeper shelf," with thrilling adventure and wonderful romance in perfect measure.

Summary: not the author's best
Review: Unlike some of Merline Lovelace's longer books, this story lacks interest. The premise--pilot frozen in the 1950s is thawed out now--seems to promise readers an interesting look at the hero's adjustment to modern values, but in fact he makes the adjustment fairly easily. His sexism, etc., is all on the surface. The heroine isn't terribly interesting either--she could pass for the heroine of several other romances without trouble. If you're going to start with a sci-fi premise, you should DO something with it--not hang the same old romance plot on it and expect it to be enough.
