"Scorching hot and beautifully emotional."—Lori Foster, New York Times Bestselling Author

With a storm coming and a killer on the loose, every step could be their last...

Angel Smith is finally ready to leave Antarctica for a second chance at life. But on what was meant to be her last day, the remote research station she's been calling home is attacked. Hunted and scared, she and irritatingly gorgeous glaciologist Ford Cooper barely make it out with their lives...only to realize that in a place this remote, there's nowhere left to run.

Isolated with no power, no way to contact the outside world, and a madman on their heels, Angel and Ford must fight to survive in the most inhospitable—and beautiful—place on earth. But what starts as a partnership born of necessity quickly turns into an urgent connection that burns bright and hot. They both know there's little chance of making it out alive, and yet they are determined to weather the coming storm—no matter the cost.

Very action packed. Ford and Angel worked at a science station in Antarctica. But they get mixed up in a heist of some ice samples that contain a deadly virus. Next thing they know. They’re in a race across the continent for their very lives. They have only each other to depend on. It was an interesting story and it was stressful and harrowing watching the two run for their lives. But in the process, they fall hard for each other. I liked both characters. They were so different and kind of at odds at the beginning of the story. But the longer they spend out on the ice together, the closer they get. I liked their story. But beware, the story with the virus doesn’t end here. It picks up in the next book with a new couple. ( )

Whiteout by Adriana Anders
Survival Instincts #1. Contemporary romantic suspense.
Angel is a chef on temporary assignment in Antarctica. She’s wrapped up her final day when she inadvertently witnesses a murder. Ford Cooper and Angel pair up and end on the run from killers across the frozen whiteness of Ice and snow.

Gripping, intense, and chilling as their adrenaline helps power the romance. An unfeeling villain, and a secret organization to the rescue.
I can’t imagine such a cold temperature that would require 5 layers or more of clothing just to get out of bed. Grateful the U.S. Midwest doesn’t have those extremes!
An exciting adventure. I look forward to reading more by this author. ( )

The time has come for Angel Smith to leave Antarctica and return to the US after spending months as head chef for Burke-Ruhe Research Station at the South Pole. Angel doesn't know where she will go or what she will do since coming to Antarctica was a means to get away from a difficult situation in Pennsylvania which had been her home. It doesn't help that her attraction to glaciologist Dr. Ford Cooper has gone unrequited. Ford has purposefully isolated himself from anyone and anything other than his work ever since his arrival at the station. When Angel's departure is interrupted and she is left behind, she discovers that there is more going on at the station than research.

Whiteout is an enjoyable, if unrealistic, romantic adventure/survival novel with underdeveloped but likable characters. The beginning of the book is exciting and draws the reader into multiple possible scenarios surrounding the mysteries of the research station, but when the story moves out into the wilderness and becomes all about survival, the pace slows considerably causing interest to wane. Excitement picks up again in the last third of the story, salvaging the book and making it an enjoyable novel. Overall, Whiteout has enough action, suspense, and romance to make it worth the read. 3 1/2 stars. ( )

I read the prequel to this story in an anthology. It focused on Ford's brother but was nice to have that sort of preview when reading this story. Ford and Angel work at a research station in Antarctica. Ford isn't very friendly but then the two are forced together to fight against the bad guys. I liked the book but wasn't as enthralled with it as other people. I found it to be a little too long and I was bored with the descriptions of the weather. I get why there were included, I just wanted more smexy times and less weather reports I think. Overall it was a fun story and I would read more from this author but it just solidifies that romantic suspense is not my jam as much as contemporary is.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy. ( )

As a summer worker, Angel is about to leave Antarctica and return to the mainland. However, when she misses her plane, she is left behind with murderer's, intent on stealing ice core samples from the station. Ford Cooper, a scientist, is also left behind. Coop finds Angel, and together they piece together what is happening, and make the decision to trek across the ice over 200 miles to the nearest station.

This book was a complete bust. Although it was set in one of the most interesting places on earth, and had a fairly decent conspiracy theory plot, I quickly grew tired of the relationship between Angel and Coop. The two were attracted to one another yet determined not to like one another. Most of their scenes were spent describing each other in their heads. They acted like pre-teens who couldn't think of anything else but sex. Seriously, you are fleeing for your life across the Antarctic, and can't focus on anything but the other persons hair, sounds, looks, movement, etc. This completely killed the book for me. ( )
