Return To Paradise
Mason Caldwell is a luxury resorts tycoon, a busy, determined man with goals to meet:
-- build a perfect art studio in their beach house so she'll see the wisdom in staying with him
-- lure his wife back to Hawaii by commissioning his sexy, estranged wife (through a third party) to adorn the walls of his newest resort renovation with massive canvasses.
-- find proof that he's innocent of adultery, and
-- get his short-lived marriage back on track even if it means encouraging the sparks flying between them to burst into flames.
Still feeling betrayed and manipulated by Mason, Leilani returns to O’ahu with her own agenda:
-- ignore her attraction to her handsome estranged husband
-- finish the paintings commissioned by him
-- earn the money to pay for her mother’s medical care, and
-- get Mason’s signature on divorce papers.
Resenting his deceptive methods, Leilani struggles with conflicting messages from her heart and her head, especially with Mason’s casual touches and heat-filled gazes tugging at her heart.
Can they fight the love and passion that rages between them long enough to rebuild trust in their marriage, or will their relationship implode once again?
This book is the second in the Tropical Heat series, which includes Sunset Beach Sizzle. However, each book is a standalone title and can be read out of order.

About the author
Carol Burnside
16 books80 followers“Sizzling romance with heart and humor.”
Carol is an award-winning author of contemporary, small town romances with serious sizzle and usually a generous dose of southern charm. She enjoys a second-chance-at-love story with her husband of over forty years.
A native Texan, Carol's love of travel, coupled with a history of living in her share of small towns and metropolitan areas, gives her a broad range of settings to choose from. She admits that as long as she has her hubby and dogs with her and a generous supply of sweetened tea, she can write almost anywhere, even in their RV.
Writing as Annie Rayburn, she produces alternate reality, soft sci-fi and lite paranormal erotic romances featuring Crainesians, a humaoid race of people living here on Earth.
While Carol/Annie enjoys the adoration she receives from her three spoiled dogs, what she really loves is hearing from her readers. Visit her at www.CarolBurnside.com for excerpts, review snippits, news and more about her irresistible characters.
Happy reading!
