Buckle Up

Most books I have read use the first 50 pages or more setting up the plot. Not CRUSHED ICE. From the first page you are deep into the story. I really appreciated this. It was a fast ride strategically sprinkled with key names and nuances throughout. I love the flashbacks. It reads like a movie. Get snug and fasten up because you are definitely in for a ride!

A TRUE THRILLER

Crushed Ice tells the story of Truth, a character who lives in the shadows and operates outside the law. Because of his chosen profession, very few people know his real identity. He is a master of disguise and manipulation. He's fascinated with a woman who was blinded in a horrible accident caused by him. This book is a thriller. It has murder, suspense, schemes, cons, and lies. It leaves readers on the edge until the very end. Eric Pete fans will enjoy seeing their favorite characters from previous novels. I hope Truth will make an appearance in future books.

Mr North

Very good book. It made me look for other books by him but I didn't find any. It was on time and in excellent condition.

Loved it !

Just finished reading what Im calling a "grown folks read". Erotic thriller with enough twists and turns to make it into my top reads for 2010. LOVED Crushed Ice by Eric Pete. I HOPE this is a character that has many more stories to tell.

(RAW Rating: 3.5) - Master of Disguises

Who is Truth? Raised by a single mother struggling to make ends meet, Truth is introduced to the world of manipulation by Jason North. In Truth's profession, no one knows his identity, wearing many disguises to bring havoc to the lives he's being paid to destroy. But someone is out to kill him and now it's a race against time to get them before they get him. Utilizing one of his many disguises, Truth pretends to be an author to gain the affection of Collette, a frequent visitor of their neighborhood bookstore. Despite being blinded from a horrific accident, Truth finds her beautiful and captivating. Their unique attraction is more than meets the eye. There are many questions: why is Truth's life in danger? Who is determined to unveil his true identity? Who can he trust? Is it because he knows too much or is it because of the many lives he's destroyed? As I was reading CRUSHED ICE, I thought I knew what was going to happen next, but as soon as I turned the page, a new twist had taken place. Although, I enjoyed the suspense of not knowing, I would have like to see just a little bit more action. With an impressive story line of murder, schemes, and suspense, CRUSHED ICED will leave readers caught up until the very end. Reviewed by Sharon Lewis of The RAWSISTAZ(tm) Reviewers
