Island Lover — Patt Bucheister

A Hot-Blooded Hunk in Paradise...

Judd Stafford had fought hard and lost, finally agreeing to take two weeks off from running his family's corporation and go to Hawaii for a vacation. But nobody could make him relax, or distract him from wondering how business was going...until the night he sneaked into the company building and fell hard and fast for the artist painting his lobby! Erin Callahan had deep blue eyes like the sky at the end of a storm, tantalizing the driven executive who hadn't had a good night's sleep in months. Erin soothed and excited him, and kissing her was like riding a roller coaster -- all ups and downs and stomach-twisting joy -- but the exquisite painter had fought hard for her independence, and she wasn't going to make it easy for Judd to win her over. If courting her meant moving into her artists' co-op, he'd do it, savoring every touch and taste of his lady's lips. But once he'd helped Erin make up for lost time and shown her how hot her passion burned, could he make her believe he'd stay for keeps?
