Rule Breaker — Kat Bastion; Stone Bastion

Racial Tensions Flare as Hot as the Passion in RULE BREAKER, a Modern-day Romeo and Juliet Story

Leilani Kealoha wants to be set free. Of family expectations. Of generations of prejudice.

Chafing at rules made by the proud Hawaiian men in her family, she yearns to discover herself and hungers to explore the world. Her adventuresome heart? Longs for something even greater, deeper.

The last thing she expects is an East Coast haole surfer to hold the key to everything.

Mason Price is done walking his parents' path. Done with social acceptance--with cold politics.

On a surfing quest to reinvent himself, Mase finds an exotic beauty standing on his towel. But it's her feisty bargaining that catches him off guard. When he challenges her with a "Truth or Shots" drinking game, she unwittingly reveals more than she'd intended about herself...and him.

The raw truth stuns him: She's suffered like he has, is lost like he is--keeps secrets like he does.

But will young love and shared situations be enough to conquer racial and cultural divides?

Lines in the sand...were meant to be crossed.
