It's a nice, quick read. I read it whilst traveling and the story threads were easy to pick up after pauses for flight boarding, etc. It's a romance rather than racy story, which is an added bonus for travel reading. Although a novella, the characters are fully developed and the crisis believable. I'd continue with another Elizabeth Harmon book, but I've already read them!Tags : Buy Heating It Up: A Red Hot Russians Novella: Read 12 Kindle Store Reviews - Amazon.com,ebook,Elizabeth Harmon,Heating It Up: A Red Hot Russians Novella,Fiction Romance Military,Travel Polar Regions
Heating It Up A Red Hot Russians Novella eBook Elizabeth Harmon Reviews
This novella romance takes place in Amity Bay, Antarctica and will certainly warm you up! Both main characters have suffered losses and are struggling to come to terms with their loss or to trust again. Alexei Zaikov is in charge of the small community and loves life with the mismatch of people and personalities living there, though as the ‘boss’ he feels it precludes him from any close relationships with the other residents.
Glacier Ridge Lodge is the new self-sufficient building in the area. It was designed by Nora Bradford who put her whole focus on making it the very best possible, a great distraction after tragically losing her fiance in a diving accident two years ago. Her boss, however, instead of living up to his promise to ensure she was recognised for all her innovative hard work chose to promote a male colleague who had actually hardly done anything towards the concept or building. When she challenged him about this, he immediately sacked her. Now she’s chosen to hide out at the lodge, but she hadn’t counted on the red hot Russian finding her. The attraction between the two is rampant but the lies force restraint. As the Amity Bay community, researchers and everyone else now face losing their roles because of her innovative design, will discovering this alienate him from her? Can love find a way?
I’d thoroughly enjoyed other books in this series and generally did this short novella too, as long as I suspended my belief that no way would the boat have left without finding where she was. They really couldn’t leave someone stranded in the Antarctic like that, I hope! I would assume some for of health and safety procedure would prevent it happening really. If you disregard that - it is a story, after all - then it is a story of resilience, overcoming what life has thrown at you to move on to a more promising future, keeping love and hope alive. I really want to know if they succeed in their endeavours discussed at the end of the story. It is these two aspects the caused me to lower my rating. It is still a great read and heartwarming romance in a cold climate. I would have liked an epilogue at least to share how things worked out - or there to be a sequel in the pipeline! I’m not sure if there will be on to continue this story, but certainly hope so.
Just amending my review within hours of posting it. The author tweeted me to say that a sequel is in the pipeline . . . that ups my rating to 4/5 - can't wait to read the sequel, I want to know what happens to this couple and the community!
Many thanks to the publishers for gifting me a copy of this novel, via NetGalley, with no obligation. This is my honest review.
Nora is heartbroken. After losing the man she loved she put everything she still had to give in her job and designed a beautiful house in Amity Bay, Antarctica. The guesthouse is mostly self-sufficient. Nora is an architect and has done the largest part of the work, but someone else took credit for it and stole her promotion in the process. Now Nora also doesn't have a job any longer. There's no reason to leave Amity Bay together with her ex colleagues, instead Nora wants to be on her own and hibernate.
Alexei is head of Amity Bay. Because of the luxurious guesthouse he might not be able to stay though. The lodge threatens the existence of his beloved town. He thinks it's empty, left behind by the people who built it with no consideration for others, and is surprised Nora is still there. Alexei doesn't know who she is and as Nora likes him she doesn't tell him the truth, but when they become closer it's bound to come out. Will she be able to heal in Amity Bay or will it bring her more despair?
Nora is kind and talented. She works hard, she cares about what she does and she's good at making plans. I immediately loved her. She's sad, but she also still has hope and is taking baby steps towards a better future. I admired her strength and think she has a great personality. Alexei is a gentle man. He's passionate about his village and he loves the cold climate. There are plenty of sparks and a beautiful connection between him and Nora, but he has to be careful with her as she's still fragile. I liked his good and understanding nature. I really enjoyed reading about this unusual couple and couldn't wait to find out if they'd have a future.
Heating It Up is an original romantic story. I loved the brilliant cold setting. Antarctica is an interesting place to read about and I was spellbound Elizabeth Harmon's descriptions of the cold, the isolated life and the inventiveness of the people who are living there. Amity Bay is a fantastic mix of cultures. While outside it's brutal inside it's cozy and warm. I liked that contrast very much, it's special and it adds extra charm. I instantly fell in love with the stunning setting, the unpredictable weather and the warm-heartedness of the story and think Heating It Up is a terrific unique winter read.
Elizabeth is a good writer, with well thought out and different plots and interesting characters. None of her books have been carbon copies, it is easy to see she puts much time and effort in each of her books.
I enjoyed reading this. The Icy setting was different and informed me of aspects of living in such a place I would never have thought of. Also having the main male character being a relatively ordinary Russian was interesting. I am looking forward to reading more from this author in hopes of finding more unique characters.
Alexei, Nora and...the Antarctic. A truly sweet hero, a struggling heroine and an unusual setting that I very much enjoyed. I can't complain about Chicago winters anymore! ) A lovely novella.
It's a nice, quick read. I read it whilst traveling and the story threads were easy to pick up after pauses for flight boarding, etc. It's a romance rather than racy story, which is an added bonus for travel reading. Although a novella, the characters are fully developed and the crisis believable. I'd continue with another Elizabeth Harmon book, but I've already read them!
