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.

One plane ride could change your life. SOPHIA RANDALL likes her routines. She plans everything, down to the very last second. And Sophia is content to stay in the radius of her hometown in Brookline, Massachusetts forever and ever. Change is not a word that exists in her vocabulary. Sophia doesn't take risks. She doesn't see the point. That is, until her free spirited sister, Abby, convinces her to take a trip to Hawaii. Then everything changes, because Sophia meets Jake... JACOB SULLIVAN JONES doesn't know who he is. His estranged parents have tried to control his entire life according to their plan. He has two options, and picking one would be like picking a parent. Jacob knows what everyone else wants with one glance. Hawaii is his last chance to find out what he wants, not anyone else. It seemed like the perfect solution to his problems. One whole summer on his own, no parents, no impending responsibility. Enter Sophia, who Jake falls in love with the moment he lays eyes on her. Spending a summer in Hawaii, even if you do have to work at a tourist excursion company, is every eighteen year old's dream. Surf, sand, and crystal clear waters, there isn't much more you could ask for. Sophia's goal is to steer clear of any present danger, and Jake's goal is to jump headfirst into it. What could possibly go wrong? WARNING: This book may cause bouts of nausea, anger, and loneliness. You may also experience sudden outbursts of excitement, and/or an overwhelming urge to squeal. A sweet, coming of age story, covered in a thick helping of comedic relief, adorable moments, and summer vacation nostalgia.

Luke Utah didn't expect to get stationed in Oahu, Hawaii for his first FBI assignment. He also didn't think he'd meet Blake, a beautiful local cafe owner as part of his assignment. When a biker gang in town continues to terrorize her place, Luke is put on the case to find out why. The only catch is; he has to be undercover. Blake didn't know what to think of Luke Utah, all she knew is one thing; he's a tourist. And tourists never stay. Which makes him off limits. But when he arrives as a notorious biker gang comes around to terrorize her place and offers to help, she's doesn't know what is harder, trying to save her shop or keeping Luke Utah at arms length.
