When Juliana fled Boston for a fresh start in tropical Nalu, she thought she'd left her painful past behind—until her supposedly dead fiancé walks through the hotel doors with a new wife in tow, claiming he has no idea who she is. Enter Keanu, a charming local pilot who rescues her from public humiliation with a fake relationship that neither expected to feel so real. As the chemistry between them sizzles under the Hawaiian sun and a genuine mystery about Ron's identity pulls Juliana deeper into the truth, she's forced to confront whether she's ready to finally close the door on her old life and open her heart to something authentic. Set against the lush shores of Hawai'i, this engaging romance perfectly blends small-town charm, simmering chemistry, and an intriguing mystery that will keep you turning pages.
