"A phenomenal second book!!!!"

If I wasn't a huge fan of Stephanie Tyler's before, I am now! I thought her debut Blaze was fabulous but her second Blaze is equally as fabulous! In the first book, COMING UNDONE, we met John "Cash" Cashman and I was intrigued, to say the least.

Cash is undercover in Hawaii supposedly on vacation trying to take down a drug dealer. He cannot risk being recognized and definitely can't risk having his picture taken as he also is a Navy SEAL. Rina Calhoun is in Hawaii trying to work on an X-treme documentary about surfing so she can get a grant to go to Africa. She is having problems with one surfer because he won't sign a release form so she can use his footage for her documentary. Of course, the surfer in question is Cash.

Cash hasn't been attracted to a woman as much as he has Rina in two years. They have an unbelievable night after which he disappears and takes the footage with him. Rina just writes him off as a bad decision.

When Rina asks her favorite Uncle Mac if she can do a documentary on the Navy SEALS under his command, who does she come back into contact with but Cash? She cannot believe her rotten luck. Now the light goes off in her head why she couldn't use his footage. Cash can't believe his rotten luck that the gorgeous babe he slept with in Hawaii and can't get out of his mind is none other than his CO Mac's niece. Mac will absolutely kill him if he finds out. What to do?

Oh my goodness! The interaction between Rina and Cash is like an accident waiting to happen. They butt heads at every turn but are so denying their fireworks of an attraction they don't know what to do! I enjoyed every word of this book. It took reading to the very top level of enjoyment for me!

Summary

What is it about extreme surfer John "Cash" Cashman? Ambitious documentarian Rina Calhoun has filmed risk-taking sports enthusiasts before, but she's never made a private tape of one of these bad boys... And it turns out the daring, hot movie version's got nothing on the real thing!

But Rina's X-treme documentary is turning into an X-asperating docudrama, since Cash won't sign her release form. No paper from him, no big break for her.

Cash wants to help the fiery little number behind the lens, but he can't because his secret life as a navy SEAL has him deep undercover. Yet as Rina stumbles into the line of fire, all bets are quickly off. He's risking everything to save her. But will it be enough?
