Kauai Internal Affairs informed workaholic Police Chief Kane Travers that he will take a three day involuntary vacation. Unhappy, Kane figures he has two days of fixing the house up and one day of total boredom and considers cleaning the beach as ten minutes less of idle time. Thus unsurprisingly he is not relaxing on a beach when Annie Parks comes ashore looking like a beautiful redheaded driftwood.

Annie is on a mission in Hawaii to avenge an affront. However, she finds the local hunk distracting. As they share their desire, his cop instincts warn him whoever tried to drown her retains a vigil to insure she is dead. In spite of her amnesia claim that he knows is a sham, he thinks if he can only kiss the truth out of her, he might keep her safe from everyone except his desire for her.

Readers will appreciate this well written heated romantic suspense with numerous twists, red herrings, kisses and a shocker of a finish. The story line is driven by Kane and Annie supported by beastly chickens, as he tries to get her to confess why she came to Hawaii and how his lips seduce her. Readers will appreciate this deep thriller as the lead pair turns the tropics even hotter one clue at a time.
