Paradise

PARADISE GETS A MAKEOVER

Fashion-hound and spa devotee Kelly sees another perfect LA summer stretching before her—shopping The Drive with her trendsetter friends, then rejuvenating with that new reverse reverse manicure. Then Kelly’s parents drop a bombshell: they’re shipping her off to stay with a daffy aunt she barely remembers.
On the only Hawaiian island without a spa.
Beside a bay that’s never heard of a chaise-longue.
In a town whose only boutique displays hand drills next to Kmart wear.
And where misfits are the norm—from the bookmobile librarian who suffers motion sickness, to the skateboarding mailman who misdelivers every letter, to the slobbery monkseal who singles out Kelly for his new BFF. And let’s not forget that gorgeous, brooding surfer—the one who’d make ideal boyfriend material, if only he didn’t despise all things haute couture.
How can any self-respecting fashionista survive three months in this so-called paradise?
Kelly will simply have to do what she does best: Give this backwater town and every resident in it a makeover.
