The first book, "The Parrot Talks in Chocolate" has been richly reviewed and loved by many thousands.

"Tiwaka Goes to Waikiki" highlights big adventure between the Hawaiian islands and cultures that find themselves there.
The 4th in the series will focus back on the island of Maui and Tiwaka's Tiki Bar and Grill, home to Tiwaka, of course, the Bartender, his beautiful Tahitian wife, Sandy, and a host of other wonderful characters.
This book will be at least 50,000 words and is expected to sell at least 10,000 copies.
