Love Hawaii Time Genie Joseph

A driven New York artist's rep has no time for love or even her own life. She is sent to Hawaii to convince a local painter to license his images for an international corporate campaign, and has three days to get him to sign the lucrative contract that would catapult her career. But Kaikoa insists: "I am not for sale." She's derailed by his commitment to his artistic integrity, and his infuriating refusal to follow any schedule -- he wears no watch, has no cell phone -- he is devoted to living in "Hawaii Time." Nothing matters to him more than being fully engaged with the present moment. His soulful deep brown eyes see signs everywhere, in the pattern of the waves, the movement of birds, and he has no use for her New York logic or timeline. Without guidance from the spirit world of his ancestors, he won't make a move. Knowing that they live in two completely different relationships to time - and against all her better judgment, she senses she will never know love like this ever again. Will she get on the plane and go back to her life in New York City - or follow her heart with abandon into his mysterious world.
