| Meridia Hancock is a side-show freak… at least she was. She is a firestarter and her body heat is so high that no one can touch her without getting third degree burns. When the side show disbands Meridia is left alone and lonely. Everyday her sexual urges grow and the desire for a mate consumes her. When she meets Dr. Jonas "Iceman" Anderson it becomes clear that he is the only man for the job. Unfortunately, he believes he is from another planet and she is their mythical Firesnake destined to save his world - and she must remain pure until she gets there.
They say opposites attract and what could be more opposite than fire and ice. Meridia has a fiery and emotional personality that goes with her superheated body. Jonas has the coldly logical reputation that fits his iciness. The author’s creativity really shines in this short story and it is a true delight to read. It’s so great the way these two characters balance each other out. She warms not just his body but his heart and he soothes the fires that rage within her. And when they come together it’s definitely, well, steamy! This beautifully crafted story just begs for a sequel. And I can’t wait!
