great

Almost Paradise: Aloha Series Book 2 is by Chris Kineston. This is the second in the series on Kona Island. This time, it is about Billy and Angela.Billy had been injured in Afghanistan and had come home to Hawaii. Here, he ran a tour boat operation that he bought from his Father. He was home to stay; but he stayed out of the boat and out of the water. No one seemed to be able to get through to him. His best friend, Nick, worked for him and took up the slack. However, the business just kept growing.Angela was Billy’s manager’s friend and came into the shop at various times. She really was beautiful, said Billy to himself”. As he gets to know her, he falls in love with her. Can he change, even for her?

A really good series.

I loved reading about Billy & Angela's journey. I have always loved this author, so it's no surprise to me that this series is just as good as all of her others. Her characters are always complex & very well developed. I*n this story the plot takes unexpected turns here & there, but makes the story at that more interesting, at least for me. I can't wait to read more of this series.

Fear of memories

Chris Keniston shows us how our memories affect us and determine our actions. Romance is abound, live, and well. Throw in a group of Navy Seals, and their is bound to be action of all kinds.

Sweet (in all senses of the word) and awesome.

Loved it. It is great to find wonderful romance without explicit sex and WONDERFUL it is. . Some authors just know how to make characters touch us and become important to us; Chris Keniston is definitely one of those authors. The characters in the Aloha Series own my heart. They feel so real that they could be friends and other people I know. Romance the way I want to see it. Life isn't easy and people serious face problems, but there is always support and hope and love.Angela had never paid much attention to ex-Navy diver Billy because he spent most of this time in his office hiding from guilt. Once they discover each other, her pain draws him to her even though he does not believe he deserve anything good. Even before she gets to know him something about him draws her. The fact that he is hot and fit has only a little to do with that. Well maybe more than a little since her biological clock has hit a short timer and that man has some great genes.
