review 1: THE ICECUTTER’S DAUGHTER by Tracie Peterson is a warm romance with characters you can’t help but like.Merrill Krause has been outnumbered her entire life.

Spending time helping her brother’s bring in the ice ... moreharvest is his excuse to be near Merrill and soon their attraction for each other grows. But when Rurik’s previous fiancée comes to town making outrageous claims against Rurik, his relationship with Merrill is threatened.I thoroughly enjoyed THE ICECUTTER’S DAUGHTER. Merrill is a strong character and Rurik is genuine and kind. I loved watching their relationship develop. The secondary characters in the book added to my overall enjoyment of the story. As some have said, the story might have been predictable, but there were a few twists I didn’t expect. Next up, THE QUARRYMAN’S BRIDE.
