How SEAL Team Hawaii Began
Susan Stoker, a New York Times bestselling author with a knack for crafting alpha heroes, launched SEAL Team Hawaii in 2021 with Finding Elodie. Inspired by her love for military romance and her time living across the U.S., including coastal states, Stoker set out to create a series that paired the high-stakes world of Navy SEALs with the vibrant, romantic allure of Hawaii. Her goal? To deliver standalone stories that blend danger, emotional depth, and happily-ever-afters, all while showcasing the strength of her characters.
The Heart of SEAL Team Hawaii
The series kicks off with Finding Elodie, where chef Elodie Winters, on the run from a mob boss, finds herself aboard a pirated cargo ship. Enter Scott “Mustang” Webber, the SEAL who saves her and sparks a tender yet fiery romance. In Finding Lexie, international aid worker Lexie Greene reunites with her high school crush, Pierce “Midas” Cagle, during a daring desert rescue, igniting a love that defies danger. Finding Kenna brings humor with Kenna Madigan’s attempt to “save” SEAL Marshall “Aleck” Smart from drowning, only to face real threats together. Finally, Finding Jodelle, the series finale, follows Baker Rawlins, a former SEAL, as he protects a kind-hearted woman from a dangerous stalker.
SEAL Team Hawaii shines through its themes of trust, healing, and resilience. Each book explores how love can bloom in the face of trauma, whether it’s Monica’s journey overcoming childhood abuse in Finding Monica or Carly’s battle with fear in Finding Carly. The Hawaiian setting—think golden beaches, lush jungles, and vibrant culture—adds a dreamy contrast to the intense action, while Stoker’s authentic military details ground the stories. Her signature style balances suspense, witty banter, and emotional depth, making every novel a page-turner.
Why SEAL Team Hawaii Resonates
