As Hot As It Gets (Blaze)

Rating:
Summary: heated passionate tropical romance
Review: 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.
