Book excerpt: Samson Ahiga Madeira has money like Midas, a mind like a steel trap, and a body like OH DAMN But for everything he does have, he doesn't have a woman that would tempt him to give it all up. While vacationing in the South Pacific, he literally stumbles across the path of his destiny. Mariana may have been the type of woman that Gaugin's canvases were made for, but to him she was simply the woman that he'd spent the last thirty odd years breathing for. Mariana Alofe Semisi is an inferno waiting to happen. Vacationing at the exotic resort, she hopes to make peace with the woman she is and say good riddance to the woman she'll never be. In the process she finds the one man that makes her feel like all woman. Mariana is drawn to Samson...then again Samson is not simply a man. He is the only man.
