Valentine's Knight by Renee Roszel
Quaid Perrault has returned to the place that changed his life four years ago. Valdez, Alaska and Death Scream. The frozen waterfall that he fell from while climbing. The monster had left him scarred inside and out. To start moving forward in his life he had to face and conquer Death Scream. What he didn't expect to find was his temporary landlord and her beast of a protector.
Helicopter pilot Valentine Larrabee remembered Quaid before his accident. A self-assured, arrogant and very handsome man. She also knew what he looked like when she had to fly in for his rescue. Now that he's renting a room from her she is learning that this new Quaid is nothing like the old one. She's also finding how attractive he is whether scarred or not. Only she has some deep scars of her own that prevent her from letting anyone in her life.
Renee Roszel writes a clear picture of these ice monsters, you feel the bitter cold wind and the sound of the ice axes. The strain of muscles as they climb. Definitely all the ice climbing I'd ever want to do was in this story. These two people have bigger things to conquer, such as fear and overcoming guilt. And realizing that love is bigger than proving who you are by climbing up a mountain of ice. I really enjoyed the story. If you are a visual person like me, you can look up Valdez, Alaska's waterfalls, there are also pictures from the ice festivals.
