Spotlight and Book Review on Love and Ohana Drama by Melissa Baldwin


Love and Ohana Drama by Melissa Baldwin

Love and Ohana Drama is a romantic comedy that explores the challenges of family dynamics and reminds readers that there is always hope for a second chance. Sometimes the most challenging situations bring the most happiness . . .

Twenty-something Cora Fletcher is a book-loving public relations executive who lives with her overly Zen best friend and attention-loving cat. Newly single and focusing on her exciting career, she feels like she’s in a good place. She's even been invited on an all-expenses-paid Hawaiian vacation! The only catch—it’s a family reunion . . . and her family can be a lot to handle.

Cora vows to not let that get in the way, but even before the family has boarded the plane, the ohana drama begins. As usual, there's the sister-in-law who is bent on causing friction, the self-centered cousins, and the aunt who loves to party a bit too much. Her mother has filled the itinerary with endless activities, and she's even invited Cora’s ex-boyfriend in an attempt to get them back together.

Although she feels overwhelmed, Cora gets a blast from her past that could impact her life forever. This is one welcome reunion she did not expect . . .

Will Cora make it through a week of family togetherness? And will she be able to say aloha to someone she thought was out of her life forever?

For newly single Cora Fletcher, a paid-for family holiday to celebrate her parents' fortieth wedding anniversary...sounds perfect! Only it's not because she knows she will have to spend time with some people she'd rather avoid, like her sister-in-law. However, her best friend Fran convinces her to must go and besides the fact she hasn't got a convincing excuse not too. Therefore, she accepts the generous offer…. Sounds perfect, right?

The narrative is busy with a huge cast of eclectic characters as the Fletcher family and friends fly to paradise for the celebration. Packed full of fun and frivolity, it's escapism full of laughter as the antics of this dysfunctional family unfold.

My first Melissa Baldwin is a delight to read. The novel lifts the spirits with up-beat plot-lines, distractions and an overwhelming sense of feel-good vibes. Just like the title says, there's drama, love and of course a happy ending.

Overall, Love and Ohana Drama is an entertaining novel and a perfect distraction for current events affecting us all.
