Publisher's summary
He was really about to lose it.
Phaedra Jenkins feels used, abandoned and utterly alone--until she meets her new boss, Ashton Nagakura. After her long-term boy-friend breaks up with her, stranding Phaedra in the small town of Hilo, Hawai'i, she takes a job at a smoothie shack called Papaya or Die on the lovely Hamakua Coast. Her first day introduces her to the most beautiful man she's ever seen: Ash, a surfer and die-hard local boy.
Ash has never been serious about much; he runs a smoothie shack, catches decent waves, and his bed is never cold. What could be better? Sure, he has some issues, and he misses his twin brother every day, but nobody wants to think about that--least of all Ash himself... Until something about Phaedra twists his heart and his tongue, and he can't shake the sudden need to tease her, take care of her... And touch her.
Are they meant to be? Is it just the old island magic, or something a little more like... Aloha?
Enjoy your trip to Hawai'i in this sweet, sexy contemporary--this is a typical Jorja Tabu contemporary romance, in that it explores real relationship issues between people from different cultures. There is a sneak preview of the sequel, SAVOR included at the end and a look at the beautiful landscape that will also host HARD: Pearl of My Bones, an AMBW finale for the ages coming out in December.
This is a stand-alone, although the companion book focusing on Ash's twin, Alix, will compliment it nicely. No cliff-hangers in this one and always safe. It is part of the long-standing MC/IR Series How Do You Want It, with eleven delicious tales of interracial love. Deeper (BWWM), Wetter (WWAM), Farther (WWNAM), Louder (BWWM), Harder (BWWM), Hardest (short story continuation, BWWM), Thicker (AWWM), Hotter (WWAM), Smoother (BWWM), Sweeter (BWAM), Savor (BWAM). All of my BWWM novellas are contained in one volume: Deeper, Louder, Harder: A Compilation of Multicultural Love, available in paperback and on Kindle Unlimited.
My BWWM romantic suspense novels are collected, in order, in the Blackstone Dynasty Anthology.
Blackstone Fire (BWWM)
Blackstone Fever (BWWM)
Blackstone Forever (BWWM)
Stand-alone romantic suspense: Galaxy of Scars (BWWM) and Snowfall (BWWM)

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of best-selling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.
