Logan (Preacher) Bishop, retired Navy SEAL, flew tourists on helicopter rides over the mountains of Montana and occasionally rescued skiers from snowy slopes. With the threat of biological terrorism at the next Olympics, he jumped at the chance to run a mission in Alaska, monitoring the activities of a newly established ISIS cell. Moving into the property next to the terrorists, his intent was to monitor their activities.
Vivian Sanders, a security specialist with the International Olympic Committee was tasked with finding out all she could about the activities of terrorists working on biological warfare. Assigned to monitor a cell in Alaska, she was stunned to find she was being paired with another security specialist and their cover—being a married couple living next to the terrorist location. Precise in his planning and executions of missions, the impulsive Vi drove Preacher to distraction and of all his missions, he was certain this one would fail. When the chemicals created by the terrorists next door threatened to be tested on the small town in Alaska, Preacher and Vi worked together to neutralize the threat and discovered opposites do attract!
The Sleeper SEALs are former U.S. Navy SEALs recruited by a new CIA counter-terror division to handle solo dark ops missions to combat terrorism on US soil.
Each book in this multi-author branded series is a standalone novel and the series does not have to be read in order.
Thin Ice is part of the Sleeper SEALs but they don’t have to be read in order! This is a series of books written by different authors that have 1 connecting character, a retired Commander who finds SEALs to go on covert, single man missions. In Thin Ice, that retired SEAL is Logan, a helo pilot who was injured saving a teammate. He agrees to take this mission because his life feels like its missing something and he does miss the excitement and service! He is tasked with investigating a terrorist cell that could be making a biological weapon. He is teamed up with a scientist from the Department of Homeland security. He and Viv have to work in close quarter and pretend to be married…what could go wrong?!
Viv is obviously not a trained field agent, so this is new to her. She was an interesting character who was way out of her element! Viv’s backstory was really interesting as well with her unique heritage! Logan is so used to being alone and never interacting with people that he struggles with Viv for a bit early on. Add is the suspense of the possible terrorist threat and you have compelling story!

This sounds like a pretty good read. I’ve always been curious how a series done by different authors works. I might have to check out this one! 🙂
