A story about family, set in the 1990s, and told through the sardonic voice of Valerie Kjos. She's a Midwestern Gen X'er whose life is just barely coming together with her live-in boyfriend when his Iranian mother, Goli, comes for a visit that seems to never end. Valerie will have to decide what's more important--doing everything her own way, or her beloved Naveed and his mother, who might not approve if she knew everything about her. But as she's about to learn, Goli has secrets of her own.

Sea, Sun & Taraipo is an adventure story about escaping the rat race on a sailing boat. John Jameson set off on a Polynesian catamaran, Taraipo, to cross the Atlantic and survived losing the mast in a storm, a mugging in Brazil and a collision in the night, and saved a drowning man at sea. He tells the story of what it is really like to share life in a very small space, in constant motion, with nowhere to hide. His dream of crossing an ocean became a 'decade out', with a back-to-basics, zero-carbon lifestyle full of adventure, challenges and romance, while sailing around the world.
