What a beautiful Story that spans over 1000’s of years. Combining childhood fantasy’s and magic too bring us this gorgeous Christmas Love Story. I absolutely loved it and I loved the little surprise that Zane mixed into this story as well….5 stars from me all the way.
I am a sucker for sweet love stories and Zane Michaelson gave me exactly what I was looking for in his new contemporary romance, Ice Queen. Christmas magic and love, what a great combination.
I devoured this book, only stopping a few times to grab tissues. Yes, a few happy tears ran down my cheeks. Santa’s heart is as golden, kind and full of love as I’d always hoped. I’m such a softie.
Mr. Michaelson has a knack for adding special hidden gems within his books for his devoted readers. He did it again in Ice Queen and it brought a huge smile to my face. I’m waiting to hear if my friends caught on to this wonderful easter egg that’s been planted between the pages.
Ice Queen is a heart warming, sweet story that reminds us that love and romance is all over the world and has many sides. Sometimes love stories are super steamy, and sometimes, just like this book, love is honest, precious and timeless.

This is the best Christmas book I have read this year. The story is phenomenal and takes you on a heartfelt journey. The story takes you through a variety of emotions: sadness, happiness, humor, tragedy and surprise. Loved the characters and the way the story flowed. This is a must read Christmas book.
Zane michaelson has done it again!!
Wow! what a truly magical story beautifully written, and i couldn’t put it down. Absolutely brilliant!! Loved it!
I found this story really moving, i had tears and a lump in my throat, also it made me laugh at the banter between the characters. What a brillant christmas story you can share with your children or grandchildren. I will definitely be reading it to my grandchildren.
I really enjoyed the mention of one of my favorite character’s from a earlier book of Zane’s, it worked seamlessly into this story!
I can truly recommend this special book and this very talented author.
Magical and Romantic
Kylie Winter is a reporter who is following her story on a woman that was found washed up on Christmas day. This starts Kylie’s journey to the unknown.
This is a perfect holiday romance, which makes you want to believe in Christmas. Nicholas had the perfect life as Father Christmas, only to have tragedy befall him. Will time heal all? This is a great story, filled with magic, and love.
“Where there is magic, there are endless possibilities.”
I had high hopes for this story. I have read most, if not all, of this author’s other works and have really enjoyed them. They’ve run the gamut of sweet and romantic to downright erotic. While this one was meant to be on the sweet side, it fell a little short for me.
The pace of the story was rushed. I really had no investment in or connection to any of the characters, and the plot was thin. It’s definitely an insta-love story and there are some good emotional parts.
It pains me to write a so-so review for this author. I have been a staunch supporter of his work, and still am, but I would have liked to have seen it be a longer story with more depth.
This is such a sweet, magical story perfect for Christmas time, but really can be read at any time! It tugged at my heart, giving me the warm fuzzy feeling I was looking for. The little surprises were unexpected, but I loved it!
This was a sweet and quick fantasy read. Loved everything about this story it started sad but then turned into a sweet story about a fantastical love that had a great ending.
Zane Michaelson takes the folklore of the season to a whole new level. He writes a tale of life, love, salvation, and preservation. In true Michaelson style, he infuses sweet twists of fate, which mark this work with his most notable talent as an author. He centers the Ice Queen around the central theme of people do not always know makes others tick, but they do know what it takes to survive and navigate best for themselves. This tale does not come free of struggle, with a glimpse of heartache, a sprinkle of what-ifs, and a handful of surviving change over time, but it does come packed full of a sweet rejuvenation, a shine of fate, and a delicious spoonful of love. Grab your hot cocoa and snuggle in for this timeless holiday read.
Oh. My. Days! I am speechless right now! What a beautiful, heartwarming whimsical story. This hit me right in the feels!
Don’t ever let anybody tell you that you are too old for fairy stories! Or Father Christmas!
What a beautiful fantastic wonderful story. You need to read this wonderful book and feel all the love and sadness I felt. You will come away believing in the magic of Christmas and love. A must read. Enjoy
Oh what a beautiful story!
Aww, Zane has smashed it again with this wonderful Christmas love story, which I would actually re-read at any time of the year.
It has the ‘feel good’ factor in bucket loads, but not without some sadness; resulting in me crying, laughing and smiling at so many parts.
There’s a very clever nod to one of Zane’s previous stories along with a Welsh element that, being a Welsh girl myself had me melting, smirking and laughing out loud at some of the references.
I don’t re-read many books, but this is now one of my ‘go to’ books that I know will make my heart happy! Highly recommended!!
This story has the perfect amount of Christmas Magic. For me it started out with tears, then had me laughing, then left me with feelings of hope and love. Zane delivers pages full of emotions in this release. Oh and what a surprise – I won’t give it away, but here’s a hint: I do love unexpected visits from past characters.
I would definitely recommend this story to anyone that loves the Hallmark Channel Christmas movies, those that enjoy a sweet and funny read as well as those that look for an HEA. It is beautifully written and just perfect for a Christmas release.
