"Great characters, fun storyline - and a hot, scientifically enhanced Navy SEAL"

Miki's afraid that she's just tanked her first real opportunity to be a success as a fashion photographer. Nothing's going her way -- from the plane crash that killed the man who hired her to do the fashion calendar to the waterlogged camera equipment to the desert island where she's stuck with an unfriendly Navy SEAL.

Well, maybe the fact that the Navy SEAL looks damned good is a little her way. But everything else is a loss -- and she can't figure out what Max Preston is really doing, anyway. It takes her awhile to realize that he suspects her of dirty deeds, and she finally begins to understand that Max is on the island after some really bad guys. Can she help Max and his dog, a truly unusual animal named Truman, fight the bad guys and stop whatever is happening from happening? Gee, she really would like some more information... Including an idea of why Max makes her heart stop and other parts, well...ummm, weak.

Max is determined to do his job and that means trusting no one -- particularly not a gorgeous woman whose plane happens to crash land right next to the island where he's hiding out. Knowing that Blondie could be part of the group he's trying to stop, Max is determined to keep his distance. Unfortunately, his definition of distance seems to be adapting to the circumstances.

The genetically altered hot babes are back and wreaking havoc in CODE NAME: BLONDIE. Max is a great character and Miki is a good partner for him. She knows there's something different about Max and Truman, but can't quite put her finger on it. A fun book that will leave you hoping someone out there is researching a way to scientifically turn out some guys like Max.

SUMMARY

Miki is living every woman's fantasy -- stranded on a desert island with a rugged navy SEAL. But little does Miki know she's a suspect in an international high-tech robbery, and her steely-eyed companion is ready, willing and able to do anything to make her talk.

Navy SEAL Max Preston doesn't buy one word of his gorgeous captive's rambling story as he carries her up the beach. Yeah, she's got curves in all the right places, but Max has a nose for a con -- and there's no way he'll let his iron control waver.

Now a hurricane's headed their way, and for Max and Miki time is running out fast. Can they team up as friendly forces -- and use Max's amazing canine companion to escape before a deadly villain takes his twisted revenge?
