Doctor Lily Monroe dreams of winning the Iditarod sled race again.  Having cared for her dying husband, a man who lied to her more than once, she is determined to enter and win this year.  There is nothing standing in the way of her goals -- except for Derek Wright.

Derek and Lily's husband were partners in a ranch.  Now Lily holds the interest in the ranch, and she fights her feelings for Derek.  He is all man; a gorgeous, mysterious man at that.  He also is the one person who can beat her in the Iditarod.

Shortly into the race, it becomes shockingly apparent that someone wants Lily dead.  Barely escaping a sniper, Derek fears someone is using Lily to get to him.  He has made plenty of enemies, but who would use an innocent woman as a pawn in their deadly game?

Cherry Adair never fails to both thrill and chill her readers.  Set in Alaska, the combination of romance and fascinating Iditarod race are sure to please readers looking for an unusual setting.  It also becomes apparent that Ms. Adair spent plenty of time researching the Iditarod race.  Her verbal portrait of the race is packed with realistic detail -- at times I could feel the freezing air chilling my face.

ON THIN ICE is a must read.  The romance, action and setting make for an entertaining and unforgettable reading experience
