\f0\fs26 \cf0 This novel is the story of three half-white, half-Hawaiian girls (in the parlance, Hapa) as they make their way in the world in the year 2000 before the widespread availability of smartphones and before the 9/11 terrorist attack, now widely thought to have been a government sponsored false flag. 9/11 will play no part in the story nor will politics of any sort. This is a Christian romance novel.\
The novel is fundamentally Christian and much of the tension in the story is driven by the conflicting themes of Christianity and feminism. These three girls have been regular church-goers since birth, all three baptized at birth and confirmed into the United Methodist Church. In addition to his job as a jet aircraft repair technician, Andy Hayes is a deacon of their church. His wife Elikapeka, a native Hawaiian of a proud and prominent family on the Big Island, is a devout Christian who is a stay at home mother who enforces Christian morals and is a fierce anti-feminist.\
The style of the novel is in the style but not substance of Ken Follett. Each scene is in third person from the perspective of one of the characters.\
Care must be taken to give each character a distinctive voice. Andy Hayes is an alpha male, gregarious, a natural leader, always aware of his status, good looks, and natural attraction from women. He speaks with a distinctive Florida cracker accent. He has a tendency to flirt with women but has not strayed from \
His wife is a charming and charismatic woman, who speaks with a vaguely Hawaiian accent. The three girls all have a similar mix of Florida cracker accent with just a touch of Hawaiian.\
At the start of the novel, none of the three girls has ever had a boyfriend and it isn\'92t until Emma\'92s sweet sixteen birthday party that the girls would have ever had boys in the house who weren\'92t relatives of Andy\'92s large extended family, all of whom live nearby. Only rarely do the Hawaiian relatives of Elikapeka visit.}
