About this ebook
Abbey came to Hawaii to get over her ex—not fall in love again.
Between a growing business, a painful breakup, and the endless demands of family life, Abbey desperately needs a break. So when her two lifelong best friends suggest swapping their annual girls’ trip for a Hawaiian escape, she says yes without hesitation.
Their plan is simple: cocktails, sunsets, laughter, and training for a half marathon.
No drama. No complications. Definitely no men.
But paradise has other ideas.
When Abbey meets the charismatic Kaleo, she finds herself feeling something she thought she'd left behind. As sparks fly beneath Hawaiian sunsets and her confidence begins to return, Abbey must decide whether this unexpected connection is simply a holiday romance—or the start of a whole new chapter.
Because sooner or later, every vacation comes to an end.
And when reality comes calling, Abbey will have to choose between the life she left behind and the future she never saw coming.
A heartwarming story of friendship, fresh starts, and finding love when you least expect it from bestselling author Anita Heiss.
