Fire and Ice Collections, Book 3

De: Tara Conrad

Narrado por: Simon Dornet

Love can heal even the most fractured souls—but not without a fight.

Svetlana has spent her life running—from her past, from her pain, and from the guilt that refuses to let her go. Brandon, a Dominant with scars of his own, is determined to show her that she’s worth every struggle. Together, they navigate a fragile connection built on trust, passion, and the hope of a better future.

But love is never simple.

As their bond deepens, the weight of their unspoken fears and hidden truths threatens to tear them apart. With danger lurking in the shadows and their pasts refusing to stay buried, they’ll have to face their demons head-on if they want to build a life together.

This is the story of a love forged in vulnerability, tested by loss, and redeemed through resilience.

Spanning three powerful novels, this collection brings together Shattered Dreams, Fractured Lives, and Mended Hearts—a gripping, emotional, and unforgettable journey of love, redemption, and healing.

I love this whole series!!

This was so worth a credit. It’s 3 books for 1 credit!

Each group of books tells the story of a couple. There are multiple POV’s in each book. The stories are interconnected and should be read in order in my opinion.

This set is Brandon and Lana’s story. Lana and Brandon are in a BDSM relationship. The book discusses contracts, safe words, smex club, safe words, and does a great job of touching on and focusing on striving for healthy relationships. Both have trauma in their past and the book does talk about counseling and dealing with trauma. They are not perfect people and I love that dose of reality.

There is plenty of 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ and I would check trigger warnings because SA, miscarriage, human trafficking, and kidnapping are discussed.

I know everyone loves duet narration, but for single narrators, Simon is one of the best. He does a great job and I have no problem listening to him. I just found Tara Conrad a few months ago and have listened to this whole series on Audible. She’s now one of my favorites!
