She may be young, but Mia Mason doesn’t play life safe. Until her quest for answers puts her in harm’s way. Already reeling from unexpected news, being attacked in a place she considers a haven rattles her.

Filled with secrets only his two best friends are privy to, Bodhi Lawson heads to Seaside Pointe to help his friends and chosen family unravel a mystery before another innocent person is hurt. As questions mount and Mia’s safety is threatened for a second time, Bodhi takes matters into his own hands.

And as secrets from the past are revealed, the Harris and Lockwood families discover the high price of their longstanding feud.

The agonising wait (realistically it wasn’t that long but it felt long okay) is finally over!!!
Bodhi’s story has been the one I have been waiting for and oh how worth the wait it was!

Bodhi stole a little piece of my heart right in book 1 and successfully stole the remaining pieces in this one. When I say it’s a damn shame that he’s fictional, it’s the biggest understatement of the century.
He is Kip and Hayden’s third musketeer in the brotherhood trio. He’s fiercely loyal; tall, dark, mysterious, incredibly handsome, and will stop at nothing to be there for those he loves.

Mia is Brynn and Kips surrogate little sister. She’s a whole 5ft ball of sass and fire. She’s incredibly strong and resilient; she’s fierce, she’s brave, she’s beautiful and like Bodhi, she will fight hard for those she calls her family.

Bodhi and Mia find themselves thrown together under certain circumstances and from there on, they begin to really lean on each other. Bodhi wants to protect and cherish Mia, whilst Mia wants to show Bodhi that even he can find happiness and contentment.

Book 4 is the last book in this series which means, those million and one unanswered questions about the Denton and James feud are FINALLY answered! And oh boy when I tell you 💩 hits the fan!

This book had me on the edge of my seat the WHOLE TIME. There are so many twists and turns that you are left truly flabbergasted. Not only that, it had me balling my eyes out too, because let’s face it, it’s the last book and that’s emotional.

I usually hate the end of a series as I’m always left with wanting more. And I mean, I would never say no to a little novella updating us on the Seaside gang ‘hint’ ‘hint’ 😉. However, with that being said, this book really was a good and happy ending to the series.

Mindy and Michele you truly are a great duo! Thank you once again for this incredibly story and for the many more to come.

This book is an amazing way to finish up there series. With the storyline taking you on a whirl wind ride of adventure. They keep you guessing on what happens next. With a different type of love story and you end up falling in the love the characters. But get ready to question what's happening. You also find the end of the story thread that has twisted threw all four books. These books are a definite read over the winter months. Curl up on the sofa, under a blanket and get lost in the world of Seaside Pointe.

Where to start? Raven and Ice was the perfect ending to the Seaside Pointe series. It has it all. A dash of romance and loads of history for many of the characters we’ve met along the way. All the secrets come out.

Would I be mad if there was a novella about Bodhi and Mia? No, no I would not.

[Kristy · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is swoon plus sass and wraps the series up perfectly! Raven and Ice is the last book in the Seaside Pointe series and I received and ARC. This book was a great finish to the series and added some suspense to keep me on the edge of my seat and sneaking in a chapter every chance I got. If you haven't read the first 3, I HIGHLY encourage you too to get the full story and to get to know these great characters. I have read everything these two have written and each one continues to get better! Read this book. Read this series. You won't be disappointed!

Raven and Ice by Mindy Michele a five-star read that will warm your heart. This is number four in the Seaside Pointe series, and they are best read in order, I have loved the whole series, and this was like the icing on the cake, it brought all of the other three stories together and culminated a story that has been building in the background since the first story. I do not want to reveal any details of this story, as there are so many points that are weaved through the whole series that come to conclusion in this story. Do not miss Mia and Bodhi as they melt the ice around everyone’s hearts.

[Valerie Cooper · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a great way to end this series! Bodhi & Mia just might be my favorite couple. I enjoyed their journey, as well as the wrap up of all the storylines. Seeing all of these characters mature and grow closer as a family was very satisfying. Great job!

[Jenine Reads · Rating 5 out of 5]

This series is perfection. Each book is unique (no cookie cutter romances here) and culminates in Raven & Ice that was the perfect mix of romance and thriller. The last chapter jumps ahead a year in the future so we get a glimpse of what our favorite Seaside Pointe couples are up to as well. I would not be mad if Mindy Michele decided to revisit Seaside Pointe in the future.

[Amanda Louder · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this story. Love Bodhi and Mia. I live the mystery and intrigue. I thought the series wrapped up so well but hope there will be more stories in the future because I love these characters and all the characters in the series.

[Amy · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is not a standalone, so I (highly) recommend that you start at the beginning of the Seaside Pointe series (Blossoms & Steel is book one.) Each book focuses on one couple, with a complete storyline for each, but woven throughout is a family mystery that doesn’t resolve until book four (Raven & Ice). The mystery is inextricably woven throughout this final chapter in the series, so although you can reasonably get away with reading books one through three as stand-alones, this one begs for the backstory.

Raven & Ice focuses on Mia and Bohdi. To this point in the series, both have made appearances in the previous books, but we haven’t really learned too much about them. Until now. Mia is a new young adult trying to navigate the waters of seeking out her family history while surviving several attacks and near-attacks. Bodhi is a late-twenty something man with a complicated and secret job who takes over the role of Mia’s bodyguard. Their attraction, although immediate, is a slow burn, but in no way does that make it less steamy. Decades old secrets resurface and wreak havoc on our friends in Seaside.

This final book is a perfect ending to the series. It was a rollercoaster ride. I barely had time to breathe before another thing hit, and then another. I was shocked by the family secrets that finally came to light. They far surpassed any of my own theories. The romance between Mia and Bodhi had just the right amount of steam for a girl who was 19 and pretty sheltered. The supporting characters were perfect in their support for one another. A few tears may have leaked through as I finished the final pages of this book and series. I felt all the feels and loved it all!

This author duo always gives me something to love in each of their books. If you haven’t read a Mindy Michele book yet, what are you waiting for? Start one-clicking, because this is a team you don’t want to miss!

Perfect ending to series! All those unanswered questions that have built up with so much suspense over the books are finally answered. This book is from Mia and Bodhi’s POVs as they work to unravel who is behind her attack at the farm. He tries to remain in the body guard role, but the more time he spends with her the more he realizes how much he is drawn to her. Danger is always nearby, but so are friends and family.

This group of friends are the perfect reminder that sometimes family isn’t blood. Thanks ladies for such a darn good series with memorial characters.

Raven & Ice was a perfect fourth and final book in the Seaside Pointe series. This one had me on the edge of my seat the whole time! The twists and turns kept me coming back for more and although I’m sad to see the series end, I loved it! The structure of the plot, the characters, I’m here for all of it! I felt like I had become part of the Harris/Lockwood clan. My only question is..when can we expect the next Mindy Michele book?!

[Karmin · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a beautifully wrapped ending to a perfect series. I was in love from the first page. The chemistry between Bodhi and Mia is insatiable. I wish there was more.

[Taylor Hardy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Raven and Ice was amazing and answered all the questions that built up over the first three books. This book takes you through all the emotions, at times I felt sad, happy, angry and everything in between. Bodhi and Mia are the duo you didn’t know you needed, but fall in love with effortlessly. Mia goes through so much throughout the book and Bodhi is there for her every step of the way to protect her and cherish the woman that she has become. Mia also helps to transform Bodhi into someone he didn’t think he could be. I fell in love with them and this book. Seaside Pointe has been such a great place for me to escape to, and while the book wraps everything up well, I would love to see more of the characters that I have grown to love. I definitely recommend this series.

What in the lifetime movie was this… I loved every second of it

[Callie Baldridge · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow! I did not think that they could do it, but this last one is seriously my favorite guys! I didn't think anyone could beat Kip and Chloie but it just got better and better! These two characters are so complex, but mesh so well together! The mystery that unfolds throughout was not at all expected, but just made it that much more!

[Jennifer · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great ending to the series

WOW! I wasn't sure after the first book, which took me a bit to get into and I felt like it ended rather abruptly. But by the end of the four books, I am totally hooked! The interconnected story kept me reading, while each HEA gave me the satisfaction I needed. I can't wait to read more by Mindy Michele!
