Maddie Saunders has a plan.

Her philosophy: « Life’s a beach, and then you have sex on it. »

Maddie lands a joint magazine assignment to Hawaii with the man whose kiss could singe the eyebrows of a mannequin, her friend, Alex Donovan. She’s packing a new attitude to match her new erotic lingerie. She plans to turn her triple-X fantasies into reality for a no-strings-attached situationship.

The impossibly gorgeous Alex Donovan has secrets. 

His philosophy: To live by the four-date maximum rule.

Alex enjoys Maddie’s playful wit and values their platonic relationship. He shipped her into the friend zone years ago. He knows firsthand how sex destroys friendships. But since arriving in Hawaii, her continuous flirting and guerilla seduction tactics make it hard—literally—to keep her in the platonic zone.

Spoiler Alert: He resists until an encounter of the steamiest kind drowns his resolve into the Pacific.

Complicated? Absolutely. Especially when his investigative reporter’s sixth sense flares up. He discovers the truth about the Hawaiian assignment. He also uncovers deep secrets that take his and Maddie’s lives down drastically different paths.

Will their newfound relationship and trust in each other shatter into irreparable damage once the secrets are revealed?
