Publisher's summary

Angel Smith is finally ready to leave Antarctica for a second chance at life. But on what was meant to be her final day, the remote-research station she's been calling home is attacked. Hunted and scared, she and irritatingly gorgeous glaciologist Ford Cooper barely make it out with their lives...only to realize that in a place this remote, there's nowhere left to run.

Isolated with no power, no way to contact the outside world, and a madman on their heels, Angel and Ford must fight to survive in the most inhospitable - and beautiful - place on earth. But what starts as a partnership born of necessity quickly turns into an urgent connection that burns bright and hot. They both know there's little chance of making it out alive, and yet they are determined to weather the coming storm - no matter the cost.

A great combo of romance, thrills & action!

Angel Smith is just about to end her time as the cook for Burke-Ruhe research base at the South Pole in Antarctica. Winter is about to start and instead of all days they’ll switch to all nights and only a skeleton crew will be staying on, but before she can get on the plane the base is attacked leaving her and Ford Cooper stranded. Now they must get to safety and survive in the harsh elements before their food runs out and before the bad guys hunt them down and finish them off.

Ford Cooper tried to keep his distance from Angel because of his intense attraction to her, because nothing could come of it, but now that they’re thrown together and on the run for their lives he doesn’t have much hope he’ll be able to resist her.

This was a thrilling, fast-paced, action filled read, and I loved every minute of it! At the beginning of the story Angel and Ford have a bit of an antagonistic relationship. Angel’s attracted to Ford, but thinks he hates her as all he does is scowl and avoid her as much as possible. She doesn’t realize that he’s attracted to her as well and has some fears about getting together. Of course, when all hell breaks loose, and they’re thrown together under life and death circumstances they get close and the sparks fly! Very steamy when they weren’t running for their lives! I was just worried about them surviving long enough for the relationship to go anywhere and let me tell you it was pretty intense and shaky there for a while!

Adriana Anders is a new to me author, but I had a strong feeling I’d love Whiteout after giving her a try with Deep Blue, the prequel novella to Whiteout. The story features Zoe and Ford’s brother, Eric. It isn’t necessary to read before Whiteout, but it was a lot of fun and a quick read! It’s still free on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, part of a bundle of novellas in Turn the Tide.

Really enjoyed Coleen Marlo's performance. Both her male and female voices were excellent!

Great Narration, and story line. Wow, this was a surprise. I really loved the book. Only one problem, where's the next one? We need more of Whiteout!

Not Bad, but a bit all over the place

This is a story I could’ve liked more than I did. There is a good story in there, but it got a bit lost in the execution.

A good portion of the book really dragged. The trek across Antarctica was a slog. The romance had charm, but some of the romantic tension seemed artificial - added just to draw it out.

The last quarter of the book was faster paced and more engaging, until you realized a lot of it was to set up subsequent books. In that, I found the ending unsatisfying.

New “players” got added later in the story that had me scratching my head, a bit. But again, I think that was more about future books in the series.

And lastly, I get a bit annoyed when stories involve massive conspiracies. They require a bit too much suspension of reality, or encourage folks to think they are believable.

On the narration: Colleen Marlow did a nice job, although I wasn’t personally fond of some of her “male” voices.

The tale of the Iceman!

Dr Ford ‘Iceman’ Cooper is a research scientist in the South Pole. The night before the ‘summer crew’ head back, he becomes slightly suspicious when he can’t find his best friend. The next day all he!! breaks loose and Coop realizes that someone is after some virus samples that he had discovered in the ice. The only other person at the camp is the cook, Angel, whom Coop has been avoiding all summer because of his attraction to her. Now Coop and Angel are on the run with the samples and a prayer that they can make it 200 miles to safety…over ice and snow! Enjoyed this story and looking forward to the next book.

Adventure and romance

This was a good story about unlikely allies in close proximity. The story gets more entwined with subplots as is evolves. Love the budding relationship, dislike the cliffhanger.

Suspenseful, Exciting, Delightful

I love a grumpy, closed off hero dealing with a ray of sunshine and this story delivers that, plus a man-against-nature adventure across Antarctica as two people run from murderers. Good pacing, beautiful descriptions of scenery and developing admiration make this a satisfying story. I enjoyed the narration.

Can’t wait for the next book in this series! BTW - it ends in a cliffhanger.

Boring and predictable

This book is just 2 dimensional and boring. I could predict what was going to happen and everything worked out very conveniently.
