Best technical writing I've read in years.

Hawai'i! Enviromentalism! Pseudo-adultery! And somehow this is one of the most boring entries in the FD series. Basically, Lauren's parent shove a bunch of money at her (as they do), and she decides that with the stress of her friends

1. losing a parent
2. overcoming drug addiction
3. dealing with an obnoxious room mate
4. getting married

I think I might have gone with therapy. Anyway, it's a nice gesture on Lauren's part and the girls join up with an enviromental group for students and shenanigans occur.

This includes Winnie and Faith almost getting blown up by dynamite, and still! The book was boring!

I think it need an evil doppelganger. Yeah, that's it!

Lauren takes KC, Faith, Josh and Winnie to Hawaai where they get involved with the environmental causes on the island. Winnie suspects Josh of having an affair, KC falls for the handsome owner of half the island, and Faith for the sexy amateur surfer, Davis. Lauren is also coming out of her shell after her relationship with Dash, but is her handsome new friend deceiving her?
Crooked developers, endangered wildlife, bombs and the Hawaaian surfing scene make for an enjoyable read
