Surviving Ice - Tour teaser 3

About SURVIVING ICE: The USA TODAY bestselling author of the Ten Tiny Breaths series and Burying Water—which Kirkus Reviews called “a sexy, romantic, gangster-tinged page-turner”—returns with a new novel packed with romance, plot twists, and psychological suspense. 

Ivy Lee, a talented tattoo artist who spent the early part of her twenties on the move, is looking for a place to call home. She thinks she might have finally found it working in her uncle’s tattoo shop in San Francisco. But all that changes when a robbery turns deadly, compelling her to pack up her things yet again. 

When they need the best, they call him. That’s why Sebastian Riker is back in California, cleaning up the mess made after a tattoo shop owner with a penchant for blackmail got himself shot. But it’s impossible to get the answers he needs from a dead body, leaving him to look elsewhere. Namely, to the twenty-something-year-old niece who believes this was a random attack. Who needs to keep believing that until Sebastian finds what he’s searching for. 

Ivy has one foot out of San Francisco when a chance encounter with a stranger stalls her departure. She’s always been drawn to intense men, so it’s no wonder that she now finds a reason to stay after all, quickly intoxicated by his dark smile, his intimidating strength, and his quiet control. 

That is, until Ivy discovers that their encounter was no accident—and that their attraction could be her undoing.  

And don’t miss the previous titles in the Burying Water Series!

“We’re closed!” I yell, whipping my head around, my anger at myself for not locking it launched.
A man I’ve never seen before stands motionless in front of me, amusement in his eyes as he stares. Nothing else about him betrays his thoughts, though. His stance is still and relaxed, his angular face perfectly composed.
My heart begins to race with unease.
“I’d like some work done.” His voice is deep, almost gravelly, his tone even and calm.
I climb to my feet, because I don’t like anyone towering over me. And because his piercing eyes unsettle me. Unlike the two-hundred-and-fifty-pound biker who just left, this guy makes me nervous. The wrench is still in my fist, and I grip it tightly now. “I’m not working today.”
“Tomorrow.”
“I’m not working tomorrow either.” The corner of his mouth twitches as we face off against each other. “When will you be working again, then?”
He’s patient. It’s annoying. But he also seems very interested in this tattoo, which makes it less likely that he’s here to hurt me. I relax my grip on the wrench. “I won’t be. Not here, anyway. Black Rabbit is closed for good, or at least until it opens under new ownership.”
He pauses, his shrewd gaze weighing so heavily on me that I finally have to look away from him. I feel like a sophomore year science class dissection—the unfortunate amphibian donated in the name of education. “That’s a shame.”
Either he’s not from around here or he hasn’t read the news. Or he’s one of those sickos who gets a kick out of crime scenes. “It is.” What’s really a shame is that this guy didn’t come a few weeks ago, because I gladly would have agreed to mark his entire body with my hands then.
On first-glance impression, he actually reminds me of Jesse Welles, the love of my teenage life, though I’d never admit that to anyone. This guy’s eyes are lighter—a cool chocolate rather than near-black—but they have that same intensity; a similar smirk sits atop his full lips. He, too, has dark hair coating his hard, masculine jaw; it’s just sculpted to a perfect short beard. He’s taller and broader than Jesse. Harder looking, not just by a few years of age but as if by life itself. That’s a little concerning, given the kind of life that Jesse Welles has already lived.
But there’s something distinctly different about this guy, too. I can’t quite

place it, but I can feel it. Something slightly “off.” Or maybe it’s just this place 

that’s making everything in my life feel off—after all, my mind is still in a haze 

over Ned’s death. The last thing I should be thinking about right now is this guy 

or Jesse or getting laid.


Why This Story Really Worked For Me


I have been a Tucker fan from the beginning. Her stories are filled tender moments and comic relief, heartbreak and redemption. What makes this series different from the Ten Tiny Breaths series is the sharp edge of danger, and Surviving Ice pushes the limits with Ivy dancing with peril at every turn.

Surviving Ice is the story of Ivy, a girl left on her own after she listened to the brutal murder of her uncle from the back room of his tattoo parlor, The Black Rabbit. As she decides what she wants to do about her future, she begins looking for evidence that might lead to the people responsible for taking her uncle's life.

Sebastian Riker is investigating the murder as well, only he is looking for a video that could cause problems for his employer. He comes into the Black Rabbit under the guise of  wanting a tattoo. He sweet-talks Ivy into inking him, as he spends his spare time searching for the tape.

Sebastian is lying outright to Ivy, but his attraction to her is very real. Sebastian tries to fight it because he knows that he won't be sticking around town after his job is done. When Ivy begins to succumb to Sebastian's draw, Sebastian tosses his conscience out the window and gives in to seducing Ivy. 

Their flame burns bright and hot, but Ned's murderers know that Ivy has some evidence that could link them to the murder. The closer they get to Ivy, the more Sebastian sees a connection between his past and the men attempting to get rid of her. Can he keep her safe while protecting the secrets that could very well destroy them both?
