Aloha!
With summer in full swing, my friends in the Destination Billionaire Romance series are busy taking kids to swimming lessons, lacrosse, camping and rodeos, tending chickens, prepping kids for college, attending family reunions, making popsicles, riding bikes, watching fireworks and reading! Summer is excellent reading time. Just like you, I read in by the side of the pool, in the car, and in tents. 🙂 I hope you enjoy this sweet summer read set on the beaches of Hawaii! Have a wonderful July!

Hawaiian Masquerade
by Rachelle J. Christensen
Excerpt
Lexi closed her eyes. The waves rolled in slowly, rhythmically, with a dependability that would never be doubted. Shawn had been her rock and they’d worked together with a rhythm that had kept their jobs and life in sync. Before Derek, she might’ve entertained a future with Shawn … but the dark-haired man with a camera bag slung over his shoulder had changed everything.
Story Summary
When Lexi Burke escaped the remnants of a cold winter in Chicago for the beaches of Kauai, it wasn’t a random vacation. She left the hectic pace of Burke Enterprises behind with enough money to retire at age thirty-two, intent on settling into the idyllic existence of island life. Until she met local photographer Derek Mitchell—a talented man with a grudge against rich tourists.
From art night to snorkeling lessons, hiking, and chopping coconuts, Lexi can’t talk herself out of spending time with the handsome, hardworking man who knows the value of every dollar. She also can’t find a way to tell him the truth about herself. But then Derek is selected to help in a benefit at a masquerade ball as one of the eligible bachelors up for auction. Lexi must decide whether to wear a mask or unveil her true self and risk losing Derek’s trust and a chance at love.
