Freezing is the third book in the Melted Series by Tarrah Anders. In this book, we get the answers as to why Bradford Maddox did what he did. I wasn’t Brad’s biggest fan at the end of Froze but halfway through this book, my heart broke for Brad. Mika is the perfect match for Brad, never held his past against him, and just loved him unconditionally. Like his brothers, Brad and Mika knew how to steam up a bedroom too. Tarrah, this was a beautiful story about second chances and forgiveness; the perfect ending for the Maddox Brothers.
Highly recommend and this is a MUST read series!

Freezing
By Tarrah Anders
5 stars!
Absolutely amazing third book in this series! I have loved every book and this one was no different! I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next – especially with it being Brad’s story. I loved Brad and Mika! They just fit! I admit I wasn’t a 100% Brad fan especially at the end of the second book but I warmed to him during this one. Although he has done wrong in the past I definitely think that Brad deserved a second chance to prove himself.
I really liked Mika! She had me laughing so many times – that girl certainly has no filter!! She was a really lovely, strong character. I thought that she was kind of perfect for Brad!
I have really enjoyed this series, the author has such a wonderful writing style that all three books have been a joy to read! I definitely recommend that they are read in order to fully understand the development of the characters. I am definitely looking forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Freezing (The Melted #3)
By Tarrah Anders
Rated 5 stars
This is an amazing book for beginning to end! The characters are engaging witty and funny. It is a delight to read this because it it so well written. Everything just flows so nicely. I loved the change of POV between the Brad and Mika. Both were lovely to read but I think I liked Brads better. It was interesting to be able to read his thoughts...you know things from a guys PoV. Seems like a REAL guy now a woman writing a guys thought. Well Done!
There is much humor in the thoughts of each of these characters. One thing I love in a book is the ability for it to make me laugh, smile and chuckle. These characters completed all of the above many times over.
Reed, Mika’s brother, seems like a great guy. I enjoy his relationship with Mika. They have such fun together and are smart-mouthed to each other. They are fun to read!
This is the third book in the Melted series and I have not read the other two in the series. I am sure reading them would have enhanced the experience but I did not feel like I was missing anything. I didn’t know Brad before and I can’t say I would have liked him much. The new and fresh out of prison Brad...I like very much.
Tarrah Anders does such an amazing job entwining the story of all the characters. Everything flows and it sucked me in and kept me interested during the whole book. No boredom here!! I look forward to reading more of her stories!

Freezing (The Melted Series Book 3) by Tarrah Anders
This story is a great story about second chances. Tarrah is an amazing author. She develops her characters in a way that is refreshing. With her characters it is easy to see friends or family in the same situations as Brad and Milka get into. Brad is not a perfect person. He has found himself in trouble with the law. On the hand he has paid his debt and now he is trying to get on the straight and narrow. He has some issues with trust but who doesn’t these days. Milka is at the right place at the time and meets Brad. I should mention that Milka is the sister of Brad’s parole officer. Through the story you see their relationship grows and slowly which is good for both of them. The one interesting things with this story is that Tarrah does not hide anything in the characters. She makes sure you understand everything as it is happening in the story. I would recommend this story to show you that there are ways to have a relationship and how to take it slow.

Freezing (The Melted Series Book 3) by Tarrah Anders is the third book in her The Melted series. I would highly recommend reading this series in order. It will help enrich your enjoyment of this series. I enjoyed the previously two books in this series and I enjoyed this one just as much. This author's writing skills are easy flowing and the plot she has created is amazing. I enjoyed her attention to details as well. They just pulled me into the story with ease and help my attention until the last page. Her characters are well written, connectable and lovable. In this book we get to see Brad's story. His story is about getting second chances and showing that just because you make a mistake doesn't make you a bad person or that your life is over. He is just being released from prison and is determined to do three things with his life, one – get a job, two – follow the law and three – get his life together. He would like a family but is determined to get the other three things done first but what will happen when fate has something else in mind for him? Then you have her! She was not in his plans but he just can't seem to resist her. Will she show him that goals can have two different meanings? She seems to give him new meaning to life but will he go back to old ways? Both of these characters are so lovable and their attraction is off the pages. He is trying so hard to change and make his life better but when he realizes that he needs her to keep it together, what will happen? They will take you on some twists and turns that you won't see coming but they will keep you wanting to know what will happen next. He has some trust issue and is a little insecure but I enjoyed seeing him grow with this story. At first, I wasn't quite sure what to think about him but by the end, he made me change my mind. I highly recommend this book as I know you will want to see what Brad's story is and if there is a happy ending!

Freezing the third novel and conclusion to the Melted series by Tarrah Anders. I just love this author’s work, having read all her books so far, she never disappoints. This series is incredibly good, and each instalment seems to be better than the one before. I didn’t know how I would feel about this book, as I didn’t particularly like the main character after the events of the last book…. But I was intrigued enough to find out what made him tick, and I am sooo glad that I did, because WOW- what a story he has!! I have to say that he completely won me over, because this is now my favourite read of the series. If you haven’t read the previous two books, I really recommend that you do because there is valuable backstory and character information that will help you better understand the events that led to this situation, as well as other important facts. Reading this book was both a joy and yet bittersweet at the same time- the story was superb, but I knew that the series was coming to an end and I didn’t want to say goodbye. But, I am a little excited to see what Ms. Anders does next though!
Bradford Maddox, has just spent the past three years in jail, paying for his mistakes that have cost him so much. He has to get his life back on track, and that means setting goals, finding work and getting back to being an upstanding citizen. After everything he went through he is definitely not looking for a relationship, he has trust issues and can’t afford the distraction. But the best laid plans can come undone, which is exactly what happens to Brad when he finds himself drawn to a beautiful woman who he keeps seeing at various places around town. He desperately need to keep his sights firmly on his brand-new start, but he can’t stop thinking about her. She intrigues him, and he soon begins to wonder if there could be a place for her in his future after all?
Mika Crutcher is a busy cardiac nurse who loves her job, and helping people. Her life is a little complicated, and she has a little baggage left over from a past relationship. She isn’t interested in starting a relationship, until she lays eyes on Brad. Their worlds collide and neither will ever be the same again.
This story is told from multiple POV’s that gives this book quite a lot of appeal. The story is funny- with lots of witty quips, banter and a few gaffs. But there are also some very tender, touching and moving moments that gave this book a lot of emotion, and made it a very heart-warming read. A superb way to end the series.
Another feather in Ms. Anders cap!
Thank you, Ms. Anders!

5 Stars
I absolutely positively loved this series! This, the 3rd book was the perfect addition to this story. I couldn't wait for this and now that I've read it I want to go back and read them all again.
I knew that there had to be more to Brad's story than how it was left in Book 2, and oh what a story it was! Brad spent the last 3 years in prison for a crime that ruined his life, he lost who he used to be and the family he loved. Now that he has been released he has new goals in life and needs to stay focussed on those goals. What he wasn't expecting was to meet Mika. I loved Mika, she was quirky and had no filter on the things that would come out of her mouth. The attraction these two felt for each other was immediate but being attracted to someone, then trusting them is what got him in the mess he is in and even though she seems like a good person, how could he ever trust another. He just needs to stay on track, but everytime he turns around he is running into her again...Could he trust another? Can he get past what happened to him causing him to lose everything that mattered?
Having the characters from book 1 and 2 show back up in this book was awesome, I missed them, and this a second chance story was written beautifully, and I will be rereading this series more than once. I loved the style of writing and how the stories all just flowed so that before you knew it you were done.
I highly recommend these books be read in order to be able to appreciate Brads story completely, but in order or not you have to read these books, they are AMAZING!!
Another favorite author to add to my collection :)

Freezing is the third book in The Melted Series by Tarrah Anders and I think her best in the series. Sadly it is the last book in the series but what a great ending. Tarrah’s writing is easy and her attention to detail is what helps make her writing flow. I enjoyed the world and the plot she created and her characters are heartfelt, lovable and so easily connectable.
This is a wonderfully beautiful story about second chances forgiveness and reconnecting with family and love.

This is the third book in this series, while it can be read as a standalone, as it does recap some of the details of previous books, I highly recommend reading the first 2 as they were amazing reads!
Brad is getting out of jail and starting over. Meeting Mika, throws him for a loop. He's not looking for a woman, as he doesn't trust his judgement anymore, but fate has other plans as they run into each other quite often.
As Brad and Mika become closer and their pasts get laid out to each other, will it bring more trouble, or will they be able to weather through the storms that come?
I loved this book and seeing previous characters. I'm so sad this was the final book in this series, I really enjoyed every book.

I have said this about so many series, books and authors, but I will say it again. This series, these stories, these characters, this author, just continues to blow my ever lovin mind! Each story is original in it's storyline, but also a continuation of previous stories. The intertwining of the lives these characters lead is flawless, and the content gripping and addictive.
There are so many facets to each of the books in the Melted series, but you never lose your way, as the author keeps to the topic perfectly. There is heaps going on but it just flows so smoothly, a reader simply cannot get enough.
I lost a big chunk of my heart to the quirky and crazy characters of the Melted series, but Freezing just dazzled me beyond words. My heart was heavy, then it was light. It moved me to tears, then blinded me with the brilliant way it was presented. Tarrah Anders just blew me away, and for that I am eternally grateful. 5 stars
