“Zanetti is a master of romantic suspense.” –Kirkus Reviews Enigmatic. With a wildly gifted mind, and an untamed head of hair to match, petite powerhouse Millicent Frost is brilliant when it comes to gadgets and electronics—less so with people. After an attempt to bust a bank scam goes awry, Millie is in hot water with Homeland Security and targeted by lethal enemies. In the midst of the trouble, she heads home to help out with the family hunting and fishing business. But when their rival competitor and Millie’s ex is murdered, she’s the number one suspect . . . Irresistible. Former Marine turned lawyer Scott Terentson devotes himself to getting his clients out of tricky binds. A loner, the last thing he wants is to belong to any team, yet the Deep Ops group considers him one of their own—and he pays the price by getting shot at by their enemies. Now Millie is seeking his help—just as he’s dealing with a brutal fail regarding a recent trial. Both are a headache, yet he’s drawn to Millie in spite of himself. They’re opposites, but maybe the old adage is true . . . Electric. Working together, Millie and Scott soon have more on their hands than they bargained for as the danger escalates—along with the sizzling heat between them. And when a disappearance is thrown into the mix, all bets are off . . .

Former marine turned high-profile lawyer… say no more!

You can always expect an exciting page-turner from Rebecca Zanetti, and Frost Bitten is the 6th book in the Deep Ops series that proves just that. Scott Terentson is definitely what kept me turning the pages. There’s something about a man who fools you with a calm demeanor and a fancy suit, only to be a highly skilled (and very sexy) fighter. His training before settling down behind a computer desk definitely comes in handy when Millie ends up being framed for murder in her small home town.

Millie is reminiscent of a real-life Tinkerbell.

I say Tinkerbell as in the evolved 2008 inventor. Millie makes things happen. Her brain is wired to see a problem, and come up with a very innovative solution. She enjoys taking things apart to learn how they work, and then fix them better than how they started. So she’s cute and quirky. She is very much not a murderer even though someone went to great lengths to frame her. Admittedly, the evidence against her for her ex-boyfriend’s death is pretty damning… enter Scott!

Of course there’s the back and forth banter between Millie and Scott. Scott basically forces Millie to accept his help fighting this case. Neither of them expect that it would lead to threats against Millie, and attempts at taking her life. This is where Scott enters marine mode and gives readers the steamy shivers. The great thing about a romantic suspense story from Rebecca Zanetti is that the romance is never boring, and the murderer reveal is always surprising!

You do not have to read all of the Deep Ops books to appreciate Frost Bitten, but there will be references to the Deep Ops team (and their loving pets) in the story. You might start here, then work your back!
