Britt is forced to guide the men off the mountain, and knows she must stay alive long enough for Calvin to find her. The task is made even more complicated when Britt finds chilling evidence of a series of murders that have taken place there and in uncovering this, she may become the killer's next target. But nothing is as it seems, and everyone is keeping secrets, including Mason, one of her kidnappers. His kindness is confusing Britt. Is he an enemy? Or an ally?
Black Ice is New York Times bestselling author Becca Fitzpatrick's riveting romantic thriller set against the treacherous backdrop of the mountains of Wyoming. Falling in love should never be this dangerous.
I surprisingly really enjoyed this book, even though many of the plot twists were very obvious. It was great. I rate this a strong 4.11 (random number I know). The plot was great as basically two teenage girls decide to go on a trip to one of the girls parents cabins, and on the way their car breaks down and they become stranded in the middle of the woods where various girls were murdered.Although I have to admit it, the plot does sound like a lifetime movie, but I enjoyed it all the same.
Spoilers Below
There was a lot of rivalry between Brit and her best friend, and that rivalry went alot further than it should off, there is a difference between jealousy and rivalry to girl/girl hate. After that all Britt ever talks or thinks about is her best friend's brother and her ex-boyfriend Calvin. Even though they broke up over 6 months ago.
I really didn't get the ending as even through everything, when Mason kidnapped her and held her at gunpoint, even then she still wanted to see him again and for them to be together. It's possible she could have a case of Stockholm syndrome. Although I am glad she left her best friend behind and stopped speaking together, because that was not a healthy friendship.
