We both love the mai tais, poke, and Spam musubi! My husband appreciates the fresh air and panoramic views. I enjoy the beach and the warm ocean with no seaweed like there is near my home in Northern California. We love old Hawaii, like you find in Hanalei on Kauai or Lahaina on Maui, and historic businesses like Matsumoto Shave Ice, Leonard’s Bakery, and Rainbow Drive-In on Oahu.

My husband and I love vacationing in Hawaii. She was born on Kauai and grew up in Honolulu. The main character of my recent novel, The Aloha Spirit, was inspired by my husband’s grandmother.
