An excellent first novel. You learn to enjoy the characters---not only Keely, but that cad of an ex-husband and that rogue boyfriend, because she beautifully balances the positives with the negatives. I'll be on the watch out for more of Jill Smolinski's novels.
Nice beach read--especially for a former kamaina! Fun, witty heroine.
THis was a pretty good book. Light reading, great for a beach read! This was her first novel and I would read more by her.
Keeley lives in Hawaii, which is not necessarily an island of romance. Her husband has just dumped her for a hula dancer and is now demanding custody of their young son. Her job involves studying an extinct volcano - no wonder it's called a "dead end" job.
Easy read about a woman going through oneof the hardest times in her life. Great weekend read.
A light little romp on the beach, full of salt and sunshine. Easy, pleasantly engaging reading.
