Burning Up The Rain (Hawaiian Heroes) - Plot & Excerpts
Jack surveyed the crowd behind his second-row seat. All of Hilo Town and half the island must be crowded in here, all talking at once. Even the Hawaiian bailiffs looked harassed as more people crowded in the doors, peering around for possible seats. Since there were none, Jack was glad the Ho’omalus had known to get here early. Most of the crowd wore island casual—shorts and shirts for the men, shorts and tops or sundresses for the women. Having exhausted his own suitcase, Jack wore a new pair of dark slacks and a turquoise Tommy Bahama shirt. Lalei had chosen the shirt for him the day before in Kona. She sat beside him, cool and lovely in her brown pearls and a new little coral flowered dress he’d bought her. He happened to know that underneath she wore a pair of barely there panties that he’d chosen as well. She hadn’t wanted him to buy her clothes, but he’d surprised himself and her by being stubborn, and insisting. Maybe it was the memory of what had remained of her white dress after that weird lightning strike.
