January 02, 2002: Lara Gladstone is a woman who likes to play games. When Daniel Savage steps into the role of hunter and she the prey, the chase is on! Only, for the first time in his life, Daniel is looking at his sexual partner as something more than just a playmate. He begins to see his life as a nothing more than a schedule, and it bothers him more than he can say. When Lara sets the rules for their relationship (just sex, nothing more), he sees the challenge, and sets out to show her that there IS more to life than just fun, and staying on the outskirts of commitment. As these two strong personalities both at once mesh and clash, Daniel?s sense of fair play is skewed by his own new outlook on life. Lara makes him feel what no other woman has. Isn?t it right that he pursue her with all the vigor he?s only ever felt when he wheeling and dealing on Wall Street? Will he use Lara?s own body and desires against her to get what he wants? And will she resent him as he chips away at the walls she?s built around her heart? Playing a game of hide and seek has never been this intense, or as risky to her own identity! Lara is so against marriage that Daniel must use every one if his skills to change her mind. But dreams of love and forever are so new to HIM. Can what skills he possesses be enough catch his quarry? Ms. Alexander?s story of love vs. lust is age old, but told with a twist that keeps you guessing, and rooting for her characters call it a draw and find satisfaction with each other without losing the individuality that drew them together. The sexual tension is wonderfully written, and had this reader anticipating each encounter. An intense, passionate tale of cat and mouse. Only you hope that the capture will be welcomed and pursuer and prey can find what they both desire most: happiness. Congratulations to Ms. Alexander. PLAYING WITH FIRE is a sensual, exhilarating read!

December 19, 2001: This book is why the Blaze line was formed - a hot and heavy fantasy between two people who believe they only want an affair, then realize they've lost their heart. Amazingly sexy, the best Blaze I've read.
