My Review:

 As You Ice It is the final book in Emma St. Clair and Jenny Proctor's Appies series. While this book could stand alone, having read the Oakley Island series helped me better understand Naomi and Camden's relationship.

We first met Naomi and Liam in the Oakley Island series, and I was thrilled to get their story. Liam is just as precocious as he was then, and super smart. I love that he got into some mischief in this book. Camden has been a peripheral character for the whole series, so it was fun to get to know him better.

Synopsis: (Amazon)

If at first you don’t succeed, DO NOT try, try again. At least not when it comes to dating a hockey player.

When Naomi met Camden Cole on Oakley Island, she assumed he would be gone in a week or two like any other tourist passing through.

Perfect for a fun summer relationship. A temporary one.

As a single mom to ten-year-old Liam, she’s not holding out hope for husband material and is way too skittish about commitment to consider more.

So when both Naomi and Liam start getting too attached, she cuts Camden loose. Better to end things before either of their hearts could get broken.

But the joke’s on her—they broke anyway.

As an added punchline (and gut punch), her job relocates her to the town of Harvest Hollow—where Camden plays for the Appies.

It’s FINE, Naomi tells herself. He’s a professional hockey player with a busy career. Their paths will never cross.

And they probably wouldn’t have—if not for Liam’s newfound hockey obsession.

Now, Naomi is right back where she was last summer—with the same feelings and the same desire to protect her and Liam.

But when Camden wants to go all-in with her and Liam, is Naomi ready to stop running?

  2. I'm so far behind in this series. All the books sound so good though! Hopefully I can get caught up one of these days. :D
