Book Description
After losing her husband, she’s not about to lose this race. But if she doesn’t drop out, she could lose her family. When Michele Lopez Hanson quit her law practice to become an author, she was looking forward to spending more time at home with her triathlete husband and her teen kids. But when a tragic biking accident claims her husband’s life, she finds herself with nothing but free time and painful memories. Drowning in grief, she pledges to honor his memory by competing in the Ironman he’ll never finish. But as she follows along his old training routes, she discovers that if she pedals hard enough, she can sense him alongside her. Her single-minded focus on the race leaves little time for her children, but when her teenage son is accused of murder, she has no choice but to get off the bike seat long enough to track down the real killer. With the Ironman fast approaching and the charges against her son heating up, can she cross the finish line and hold her family together or will everything she loves crash and burn? Going for Kona is the first standalone book in the adrenaline-pumping Michele trilogy and book #8 within the What Doesn’t Kill You romantic mystery super series.

Book Description
One universe, nine planets, 204 countries, 809 islands and 7 seas, and I had the privilege of meeting you." -Unknown When Tessa Talman meets Simon Fremont for the first time, not only is she attracted to him, she's intrigued by how different their lives are.

Book Description
KONA WINDS is a hard-boiled noir murder mystery set in Honolulu in 1953, when Hawai'i was changing from a racially stratified, near-feudal plantation colony to the multi-ethnic 50th State. This debut novel by Japanese American author Scott Kikkawa was written with the firm belief that Hawai'i is more than just a pretty backdrop for the mischief of tourists. It can be, and was, a terrifying, sodden place whose social realities were ugly not so long ago and continue in some respect to go unresolved. In addition, the novel provides a glimpse into the police work of postwar Honolulu, which has been rarely written in this way before. Fiction. Asian & Asian American Studies.

Book Description
This book is for all those who have a dream. Many people leave this earth without realizing the full potential they have within. It's easier to be content. It's easier to avoid failure that's always a possibility when taking a risk. Yet, what are we if we risk nothing? We miss out on the pure exhilaration of success. We miss out on the realization of discovering just how remarkable we are once we unleash our true spirit within. This is the story of Sam. He's out of shape, overweight, and smokes and drinks too much. His life is on a downward slide as he enters middle-age. He lives his life vicariously through the sports stars he sees on T.V. He knows it can never be him on the highway of outstanding achievement and glory. He is destined to always be on the sidelines. In one fortuitous moment in time, that suddenly changes. While watching a telecast of Wide World of Sports in 1982, Sam witnesses a race going on in Kona, Hawaii. He watches exhausted, jubilant athletes cross the finish line as darkness settles over the finish line. Sam is mesmerized but these seemingly ordinary people doing something extraordinary. They swam 2.4 miles, biked 112 miles and ran a marathon all in the same day. It was called the Ironman Triathlon. Sam is moved by it and it haunts him for days. Some unseen force is calling to him. Despite not having run since he was a kid, not knowing how to swim a stroke, or not knowing how to ride a road bike, Sam decides he's going to Kona, Hawaii. He just has to cross that finish line.Despite all odds, Sam finds himself arriving in Kona two years later. Once there, he crosses paths with Morgan. Morgan is a teenage girl with a fierce competitive spirit. She's in Kona to beat as many people as she can, and Sam is there just trying to survive. This is the story of their unlikely alliance. This is the story of how they took on what was at the time, the most challenging endurance race in the world. It was a time when there were no coaches, no special diets, no training books, no triathlon specific equipment, and just your basic road bike. It was a time when emotional strength, desire, and the spirit within were the deciding factors that determined the final outcome of Sam and Morgan's date with destiny.
