Samantha wants a job, although she really doesn't need one, and is surprised when she receives a phone call regarding her resume. Against her better judgment she accepts a dinner invitation under the guise of a job interview. Once she hears that she will be working for a famous author on a secluded ranch on the island of Molokai, how can she say no? Especially when the author looks just like her favorite actor. Sparks fly from the moment Samantha meets Alex and soon she is whisked away on what turns out to be the most romantic adventure she has ever experienced.

Once she gets settled in she finds herself unable to focus on work with the enigmatic and handsome Alex around. Then things go from bad to worse and she just can't figure out why Alex seems to be shutting her out. By turns hot and cold, he is facing demons in his life that he needs to resolve before he can even begin to give Samantha what she wants. She is also trying to forget her past and that recipe might spell disaster for their future. However, when they do succumb to their 'tropical temptations' - watch out. Their hot passionate affair begins on one unforgettable night. But can they sustain their ardor in spite of their past turmoil?

Although I don't normally read 'romance' novels, I found this one to be extremely readable and interesting. The characters are written in such a way that I wanted to know more about what would happen to them. Highly recommended for those who enjoy romance novels, especially in a tropical location....… (meer)
