An island of secrets. A girl on fire. An epic battle of the elements. The book that started it all…
Leila Folger escapes the stifling misery of life with her American grandmother and goes to Samoa searching to connect with her mother’s family. All her efforts to learn more about the mother she never knew are met with hostility. What really happened eighteen years ago when her father fled the island with his infant daughter? Why is everyone afraid to even talk about the woman he once loved? What is a ‘telesā’ and why does even the mention of her name strike such fear in everyone Leila meets? And why is Leila having vivid nightmares about a mother she can’t remember? Her quest for truth takes a thrilling turn when she meets Daniel Tahi, irresistibly compelling with his island-warrior tattoos, breath-taking jade eyes and golden smile. What is it in Daniel’s mysterious past that binds him and Leila so closely? When Leila discovers she is heir to a fiery birthright, she must choose between the Sisterhood and the boy she loves. Can they overcome all that divides them, even the very elements?

Only $18 USD (approx currency conversion). Includes postage.
What you can’t say – owns you. What you hide – controls you. Scarlet knows the truth of these words all too well. As the stress of a family wedding builds, her resolve to be a #GoodDaughter wears thin and toxic truths begin to take their toll. Scarlet’s epic humor carries her through everything from (more!) forbidden croquembouche, to uku infestations and melon-like wardrobe malfunctions, and more of her family’s barbed idea of love. Sometimes you just have to laugh through life’s pain, or else you’ll cry your heart out. Right? Can Jackson be the strength that helps Scarlet break through the lies? Or will her secrets destroy them? Experience the tropical heat, humor and heartache that is Scarlet’s trip home to Samoa.

Scarlet Lies
Lies are beautiful – when the truth hurts. Sixteen years ago, Scarlet’s family sent her away in disgrace. She’s been back once – with disastrous consequences. Now, her little sister is getting married and Scarlet’s headed home once more. Will this be the reunion she’s always longed for? Or will the lies of her childhood entangle her once more in their beautiful embrace? More than ‘just a romance’, this poignant story about the tangled connections between mothers, daughters and sisters – speaks with compelling insight and humor, of inherited trauma, and of desire and deception.
Only $10 USD.

Pisupo Pacific
This print features a favourite food in Samoa: Corned Beef or Pisupo.
Like artists for centuries, I teach myself about painting by doing my own versions of the great masters and modern icons.
Personally, I’ve never been attracted to the artwork by American artist Andy Warhol (1928-1987), but corned beef cans gave me the perfect opportunity to explore his work. Step into the experience of studying the minutiae of mundane objects and products.
It was interesting and it gave me a new appreciation.
Suga Skull by Pele Loi
Pele paints a contemporary visualisation of icons of Samoan culture. The tanoa becomes a crown, a tuiga made of tatau symbols, flowing ribbons of elei, and flowers adorn a skull.

Small paintings inspired by the 7 metre by 2 metre works (pic 6) I created for the VIP Terminal Lounge at Faleolo International Airport.
The cinquain poem was invented by an American poet, and she drew inspiration from Japanese forms such as haiku and tanka, which are arranged in five lines. The cinquain has a syllable count of 2- 4 – 6 – 8 – 2.

Villanelle
Playing with poetry structure and paint using Samoan markings.
These small paintings about poetry are inspired by the huge paintings (pic 6) I created for the VIP Lounge at Faleolo International Airport.
The villanelle originated in Italian and Spanish folk songs and in the late nineteenth century, the French began to form the villanelle into a more fixed poetry structure of nineteenth lines: 5 lots of 3, and concluding with a set of 4 lines.
Pretty Crabby
This print by Lalovai Peseta features his signature style of tatau patterns and the monochromatic palette he does so well.
