Miki is an underpaid photographer doing the photo shoot from hell. Her boss is an asshole who sends everyone off the island and then wants to have sex with her. To cap things off, as they are finally (after she sets the boss dude straight) flying toward home, a storm sweeps in and crashes the plane.
She and the pilot are rescued by a mysterious stranger, Navy SEAL Max Preston, and taken, with his dog, to a cave. Now, Max is on the island to capture and uber-baddie and he's not sure if Miki...more

This book was a bit underwhelming. It was more action and "special ability" development than character driven. I think it could have been a more complete book with more character development. I just felt like the author barely touched base on referring to the heroine's back-story, and there was the same lack of depth for the hero. How can two people fall so deep on such weak grounds?! It was too superficial.

The military has been souping up their SEALs and service dogs with genetic alterations and microchips that enhance their natural abilities and make them unstopable. Unfortunately, one of these SEALs has gone rogue and is being hunted by a former teammate. Enter Blondie, who mysteriously ends up in a plane crash in the ocean, smack in the center of it all. The usual suspicious behavior and battles again the outside ensue before it all comes to a head.
I thought that this romance was less rushed, and more realistic. If that can be applied to a book about a secret government sect of the Navy SEALS. I liked at the end, when there wasn't a marraige proposal, I thought that was a nice end to the story. It made it feel more real.
full of suspense and a fresh approach to blonde guts in a mystery story. This is the second book in the series but if you choose to read this one first you will be fine because the characters are new and when the previous characters are brought in it works.

I really like Christina Skye... And I enjoyed this book too... the reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars? Izzy Teague wasn't in it enough and if you read Skye's books you know why people love Izzy!!!!
Code Name: Blondie, Miki is a photographer on location in a remote Island when her boss make a disgusting pass at her. He tries to blackmail her telling her that if she doesn't do the dirty with him she will loose the rights to the pictures she has taken in the last week, when he precedes to put his hands on her again she simply breaks his nose by giving a great round kick. Awesome. While flying back the plane looses an engine and dives into the ocean. Mike is saved by a Navy Seal Max who is on ...more
Generally entertaining, although neither main character made much sense to me. Will give the series another try, but not holding my breath. I've already forgotten what kept me interested enough to finish (other than it was a relatively short book).
pretty good. I like the whole agent getting genetically modififed to save the world and the girl who gets stranded on the island with the guy. I relly like the dog that was trained to help the agent find whatever he need on the island.
I'm never dissapointed with a Codename: book by Christina Skye. Loved it!
torn between 3 or 4 stars. Fun book.

Weird.
Desert island fantasy of the first degree. I'd say there were parts that were unbelievable but that would be a little ironic considering the overarching plot. It was pure escapist fun.
Pretty hard to believe the circumstances, but hey, its a story. This was entertaining. The hunk is definitely worth reading about.
Again, I'd give more stars on a beach read scale -- but not in comparison to "serious literature". :) Fun book
This was another book with Foxfire which I don't particularly like but the rest of the story was pretty good.
This was a really quick read! I started it Saturday night and finished it Sunday morning.
