Faced with an imminent layoff and no prospects for employment in their rural Connecticut town, Elise Brady's family decided to take a leap of faith and leave everything behind to live in paradise—only to find themselves trapped on an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Like swimming in the powerful waves that pound the Hawaiian islands, the journey was filled with excitement, anxiety, fear and a fight for physical and emotional survival, leaving the family wondering if they'd made a huge mistake moving to paradise, and if they were any match for the power of the Gods above.
Hawaii is one of the most beautiful places in the world, and non-locals have a persistent fascination with what it would be like to call the islands home. In Moving to Maui: Trapped in Paradise, readers will learn that paradise isn't always what it seems.
