Aloha

by Colleen Coble, Carol Cox, Denise Hunter

Beautiful, romantic Maui is home to the four Harrigan brothers, who, since taking over Harrigan's Cove resort from their father, spend their days focused on work. There are endless details involved in keeping the business afloat - but love can't help checking in. As manager, Barnabas thinks he's figured out his snobby rich clients, but one high-class woman doesn't fit the usual mold. Will Barnabas let God use her..to teach him a few things about appearances - and love? Connor can't understand why a pretty client would rather follow him on his maintenance rounds than join the other vacationers. Could revealing his status as part owner destroy their budding friendship? Alex feels for a woman alone on what should have been her honeymoon and is sure the activities he directs would be the best medicine for her broken heart. But is it too soon to expect her to return his growing affections? Steve the logical accountant, thinks his brothers have become lovesick pups - but working with an old girlfriend to clean up an IRS mess could land him in the same boat. Can he keep his focus? With love perfuming the tropical breeze, can the four brothers balance their romantic interests with the hard work of making Harrigan's Cove a success?

3.5⭐Cute stories that were sweet and funny. Although predictable and somewhat annoying at times they were still enjoyable.

[Shannon · Rating 2 out of 5]

OK. Clean romance. Very predictable. Easy read after a busy day.

This is a G rated Christian romance. I picked this book because of the Hawaii subject matter and I like the way that 4 different writers composted 4 stories that involve 4 brothers that own and operate an upscale resort on Maui. All 4 stories flow together well and tell how each of the brothers found the love of their life.

Four single brothers are now running their family high end resort in Hawaii with no thought of getting married. Well that is until 4 ladies, a rich and spoiled one, one who wants nothing to do with a man with money, one who was jilted at the alter, and an old college friend arrive at their resort.

Cute but very predictable after the first story

[Lori · Rating 3 out of 5]

This novel is about the Harrigan brothers. There are four different stories by different authors in this book. I found it interesting how well the authors combined their work and the background of the characters. I felt like I was reading a book by one author. That was how well blended this book was.

I don't know why, but this is my go-to book when I want a 'make me smile', no need to think book - and I don't mean that in a bad way! I love the characters and the setting - an easy read for a lazy weekend.

there were a few male characters, tho, that make you jealous of their female counterparts! 8^(

Good book for an easy read. Four novellas in one book, all rotate around a family of four christian brothers finding their lifetime loves.

[Erika · Rating 3 out of 5]

A very easy read... good book for a lonely rainy day.

[Heather · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have several of these books with 3-4 short Christian stories in them...I love them! They are so great! This one is great because all of the stories are slightly connected.

[June · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read this a long time ago but now the stories are being released again as individual short stories by several of the authors.
