In the loud Santini family, I've always been known as the quiet one. It works well with being a SEAL. Living in Hawaii is a dream come true, and the fantastic rental I get is amazing. My only problem is my infatuation with my landlady Alana Kailikea.

Gorgeous and independent, Alana is a happy woman, but every now and then, I see shadows behind her smiles. I live a difficult life, one where I fight my attraction until my idiot brothers show up for a visit, and one little flirtation from my older brother has me taking that chance.

From our first kiss, I know she's the one for me. Only Alana isn't sure she believes we can work. We might heat up the seats, and we can't keep our hands off each other, but she resists the idea of forever. So, I have no choice but to pull out all the stops to woo the love of my life.

Thankfully being raised a Santini has taught me not to give up without a fight, and I won't walk away until she knows we were made for each other.
