Book #1 of Kalehua Bay
Sienna Hale has spent every summer traveling the world with her picture-perfect family. But when they arrive in the small Hawaiian town of Kalehua Bay, she's searching for something real, something that isn't staged for her mother's Instagram or planned down to the last detail. What she doesn't expect is Evander Sterling: a local who's spent his whole life in Kalehua Bay, a guy who knows every hidden spot and unspoken rule of the island. He's reckless, stubborn, and everything her parents would disapprove of.
Evander has always disliked tourists who treat his home like a backdrop for their vacations, but there's something different about Sienna. Beneath her polished life, she's lost, craving a connection she's never had. Against his better judgment, he agrees to show her the real Hawaii, the one beyond the resorts and tourist traps. What begins as a simple challenge soon turns into something deeper, something Evander knows will only lead to heartbreak.
Because summer always comes with an end.
And when Sienna's time in Kalehua Bay is up, they'll have to decide if what they've found is worth the risk or if their worlds were never meant to cross.

Aloha Lila || Milo Manheim
While in Hawaii on vacation after graduating college, Lila Howard discovers that a show is being filmed on the island her family is vacationing on. Exciting, right? Well, what's more exciting is that Lila literally runs into one of the people playing in the show, the young actor Milo Manheim. And he's staying in the same hotel she is! "Aloha, Lila" is one of the first things he says to her, and it's on from there. She didn't really want a romance in Hawaii, just a chill break from life, healing from a bad breakup and maybe prepping for more college. Well, fate had other plans. She never fathomed that she could befriend and possibly have a Hawaiian romance with a tall, hot Disney heartthrob with big beautiful brown eyes, a killer smile, and a heart as big as he is. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FYI: There will be spoilers for the show Doogie Kamealoha, so I recommend watching it (on Disney +, two seasons) before reading. Of course, you don't have to, and this will just be a cute love story in Hawaii between a girl and goodhearted star. Also, I own no pictures used in the story. They're all from Google Images, YouTube and Google Maps.Complete
