Customer Reviews

Hot indeed

I haven't read a lot of Blaze books, mainly because most read like reject scripts for porno movies--and the accepted ones are bad from jump. But Sobrato manages to develope-not only a hot, steamy love scene, eye-widening bravado, and funny situations-but fully developed, realized characters. The only flaws I would say were the transparent prostitute ring, and the motivation behind the antagonist's reasoning for the crime. I think it needed to be something deeper than what was presented. Over all, I highly recommend this book.

From Back Cover

One steamy night can change everything... She needs to get him into her bed. And once Claire Elliot has had her way with Mason Walker, she'll be able to stop obsessing about him and move on. There's no way he can be as good as she imagines. But he's not cooperating and is showing surprising resistance to her naughty suggestions. Guess she'll have to try harder to convince him. After their one disastrous date, Mason isn't sure he'll survive another round with Claire. But when she shows up at his adults-only resort wearing only a raincoat, ready to act out all her sizzling fantasies, he wonders if being burned a second time might be worth it! [Follow-up to Some Like It Sizzling.]

Very fun and fast paced sequal.

Phoenix travel agent Claire Elliot manages Sunny Horizons Travel, but she can't seem to get Mason Walker (her best friend's brother in-law) out of her mind. Though both times they have some face to face have been disasters. The first time she leaved him stranded in the Arizona desert when she drives off with his Porsche. The second time at her friends and his brothers wedding in Hawaii it is like mixing oil and water. But, why can't she get him out of her mind. He has opened a new resort get away and while she is driving her car, Claire fantasizes that she is making love with Mason and runs a red light that leads to an accident. Claire decides she all she needs to do is to sleep with the man to get him out of her system. So she drops everything and heads off to his new resort "Escapade". To her shock, Mason rejects her even though she tries to seduce him and though he wants her badly. But, as she turns up the tropical heat, he starts to melt. She is also able to help him determine what is happening at his resort when she overhears a "woman being hired". She helps him break up the ring and further endears her to his heart.

heated passionate tropical romance

Phoenix travel agent Claire Elliot manages Sunny Horizons Travel, but mostly lusts over Mason Walker, whom she met and was stranded with for a week in Hawaii. She learns that he has built a successful adult only Caribbean resort, Escapade. While driving her car, Claire fantasizes that she is making love with Mason and runs a red light that leads to an accident. Claire decides she needs to get the hunk out of her system so she travels to Escapade. To her shock, Mason rejects her even though she tries to seduce him an though he wants her badly. As she turns up the tropical heat, he melts and knows he will never get enough of this woman who raises his blood to AS HOT AS IT GETS. This torrid sequel (see SOME LIKE IT SIZZLING in which this lead couple played a secondary role in Hawaii) stars an interesting male protagonist who at first feels Claire is a stalker as she never leaves him alone in spite of his asking her to do so. Fans will agree with Mason on that point. However, once he joins her in making her obsession their fixation, readers receive a heated passionate tropical romance. Harriet Klausner
