Lady

Terran Times Second Wave #7

by Viola Grace

Mistress of chills, a true ice queen, she journeys to find a man who makes her burn and a world that needs some cooling off.

Roxelena has inherited her family talent for cold. On Earth, it is useless, but there is a request for a woman with talent on a world she has never heard of.

Marriage is a condition of her travel, so she agrees. She has yet to find a man who can withstand contact with her, so his unconditional agreement to her comes as a surprise.

When she meets her husband for the first time and feels the heat of his body and his talent for fire, she understands why he doesn’t feel the cold. He craves her cooling as she wants his heat, and they exchange their talents gladly.

The story was not what I had expected maybe because I had high expectations of it. I felt that the story was plain, not bad but not good as well. The world building and the characters just didn't click with me. It was an arranged marriage and pretty much of physical needs because she was ice and the guy was fire. I felt that their love and romance was lacking.

This short story was pretty blah for me. The romance never really got of the ground. Ir was an arranged marriage of con and physical need and never got emotionial. The world building felt very ... meaning you go ahead and fill in the blanks.

Not the best in the series but not awful.
