Ash Levenson is the coach of the women’s SIG hockey team. His primary responsibility is to keep his team happy, healthy, and primed to win. Though he’s close in age to his players, he’s been doing this for a while and mostly, it’s easy to keep his eyes on the puck. He’s always been able to discard any crush he might have on any of the women he’s coached…until Bronwyn.
When Bronwyn and Brody’s romance comes to a very public and very ugly end, Ash has to get his star player’s head back in the game and ready to dominate on the rink. Which may mean spending a little time off the ice…
What I thought about On The Edge of Scandal
Hockey player Bronwyn is dedicated to her sport and when her long time boyfriend Brody encourages her to take out an oppenent, she listens to her against her better judgement. This initiates a series of events that leads to a break-up right before the start of the games.
Coach Ash has tried to hide his feelings for Bronwyn but when she needs his support, he's there to help. And even though he tries, his true feelings for Bronwyn come out and things take off from there. But coach-player romances are also potentially scandalous, and Ash and Bronwyn deal with the press, while sorting out how they really feel.
I liked this story. It was believable and a very sweet romantic story between two athletes.

Welcome to the Snow and Ice Games where competition is not the only thing that is heating up! The fourth book in bestselling Tamsen Parker's romance series continues with two female skaters from opposite sides of the rink.
Blaze Bellamy is the bad girl of the short track speed skating world. Looking like a roller derby bruiser when she’s not in her Team USA uniform, she’s an unlikely American heroine. She’s got a punk attitude to match her provocative dress and her dyed hair, and she’s determined to get onto the front pages of the papers regardless of how she has to do it.
Maisy Harper is the workhorse of the Canadian women’s figure skating team. Serious, modest, and above all, polite, Maisy would prefer to win her victory on the ice rather than in the press, and is exasperated by Blaze’s antics. When she’s not lusting after her anyway. After they both failed to make the medal podium at the last Snow and Ice Games, they drowned themselves in gin—and each other.
Despite their hookup being drunken, they both harbor fond memories of their night together and are keen for a repeat. But they’ve got different ways of going about getting what they want, and Blaze’s willingness to go to any lengths for the spotlight could ruin any chance she has with Maisy.
What I thought about Fire on The Ice
In this fourth book in Snow and Ice Games series from Tamsen Parker, short track skater Blaze and figure skater Maisy rekindle their passionate encounter from the last SiG competition. Maisy only has one condition -- she doesn't like to share and so she asks Blaze to be monogomous while they are together.
The first half of the book is mostly sex, and it did make it hard to feel a connection with these characters. I did love the sexual freedom and openness to this story, but if f/f sexual relationships aren't your thing in romance, this probably isn't the book for you.
I did like this book much better in the second half when the characters took it out of the dorm room and there was more dialogue.
Overall, I loved the sexual expression in Fire on The Ice although it was quite a generous helping, but needed a little more story to believe this couple.
