Acerca de esta escucha
Lani has lived in Hana, Hawaii, for five years. She's learned to surf, fish, dive, and manage her grandmother's bed and breakfast. She's also learned to take one day at a time the way it should be taken - relaxed and unrushed, savoring every moment.
But, like a large wave on the brink of breaking, her life is about to crash out of control. A proposal of marriage, a conniving grandmother, a cryptic Asian woman, and a handsome guest, and suddenly everything calm begins to churn, everything clear becomes confused, and all that was normal segues into peculiar.
As Lani struggles against the current to hold her ground, she realizes that she can either continue to fight and eventually lose, or take a leap of faith, hold her breath, and ride the wave wherever it takes her.

For as long as Prudence can remember, it has been understood her sister will one day wed the eldest son of their nearest neighbor. Prudence, an aspiring romance novelist, believes her sister is mad to consider marrying a man she hardly knows, even if he will one day make her a countess. Unable to stand by and do nothing, Prudence sets out to help the awkward couple discover the best in each other with the hope they will eventually find love. What she neglected to foresee, however, was the possibility she might fall in love with Lord Knave herself.

Inspired by Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew, Miss Sarah Meacham has always behaved circumspectly, until an emotional outburst directed at a well-deserved gentleman earns her the nickname of Miss Shrew. As a result, she vows to never trust - or love - again. But when her father decrees that her younger sister cannot marry the man of her dreams, until Sarah has secured a suitor of her own, she is faced with a dilemma: deny her sister marital bliss or feign an interest in the next gentleman to come along, at least until their father relents.

When her sister decides to throw an impromptu summer house party, Sophia reluctantly agrees to help. What she doesn’t realize is that her sister has plans of her own — plans that would bring a certain childhood friend back into Sophia’s life. It’s been nearly a decade since Sophia has seen Hugh Quinton. He’s grown into a handsome, charming, and successful — yet completely unacceptable — tradesman. Her mother looks down on him, her father detests him, and society would snub him in an instant. Sophia shouldn’t even consider him.

A third son to an earl, Adam Gillensford knows his only hope of an inheritance is through his great uncle. But when the Will is read, Adam learns most of the wealth has been left to a complete stranger, and a seamstress at that. If he hopes to salvage any kind of funds for himself, he has two choices: adhere to his late uncle’s wishes and assist the new heiress in finding her way, or sabotage her so the courts will find her unfit to inherit. Deciding his course would be easier if the heiress wasn’t so enchanting.

Douchebag love interest
The writing for this book was nice, it's a sweet story and a relatively stress-free read, which is exactly what I was looking for. However, the love interest guy is a total douchebag. He lies to the main character, Lani, and all her friends for months, tries to gaslight her when she calls him on it, then when he does one "redeeming" (read: decent) thing we are supposed to supoort Lani when she flies across the world to get him back? What?

Clean Romance at its best!
Rachael Anderson has done it again! One of my favorites from her. Great characters, fantastic setting descriptions, great story line that kept me ignoring all other responsibilities for the day. A great, clean, contemporary romance.

Sometimes you just want to slap them...
I loved the storyline but at the end I was so frustrated with the Female MC and how the male MC adjusted his work to please her. I thought his justification was right on spot. I wish it was written so the female recognized her narrow mindedness and not make him seem selfish. Otherwise it was great.

Aloha!
A sweet story with beautiful Maui for its setting.
I really liked the mysterious Pearl. She was so wise and always had the perfect words to say at just the right time.
A secretive writer that leaves without saying goodbye (he has commitment issues). A girl that manages a bed and breakfast with her grandmother and is in a long term, long distance relationship. Not the likeliest of people to find out what real love is. No spoilers, you have to read/listen for yourself to find out if they do or don't
This was a fun story to listen to. I loved it!

hmmm
The beginning you find out the male main character goes from place to place breaking hearts. I found it hard to like him. Then he meets girl main character and she will have none of that--getting involved and then him leave. They have a chemistry and like each other. They have to each work out their "stuff" and they go through a few bumps. He ends up doing a sacrificial act and she responds. HEA.
