Carrie had come to Hawaii determined to enjoy herself. After all the years of raising her younger sister in Kansas, did she remember how? On Waikiki's moonlit beach, in the arms of a mysterious stranger, she let herself go with a wild and reckless passion. But Asa made it perfectly clear they had no future -- only the present.
