After watching my cousins and siblings fall in love, I'm happily avoiding that insanity. no longer on active duty, I'm thrilled to get a job with NCIS in Hawaii. Better yet, my cousin and his wife have their rental house open for me.

Only problem is Lalani.

After we go out on the worst blind date known to man, it should be easy to forget about her. Only, we keep running into each other. Every interaction pulls me further into her orbit, and soon I can't even think of life without her.

Lalani's not convinced that she's ready for happily ever after, but once a Santini man loses his heart, he will do anything to prove his love.
