Teuila is a daughter of Samoa returning home after ten years away in New York where she is a brilliant sculptor taking the art world by storm. According to the critics, "her hands give life to everything she touches" but only a few people know how true that statement really is, the secret of her Fanua Gift. Even fewer know the troubled past she has worked so hard to move beyond. She's returned finally to give back to the Nafanua Center, with an international auction of her art. It should have been a straightforward charity fundraiser - until he walked in.Keahi Meredith. MMA world champion turned Oscar-winning movie star, and this year's People Magazine's 'Sexiest Man Alive'. Teuila hasn't seen him since he abruptly left Samoa fourteen years ago, without even saying goodbye. She'd thought they were friends and he'd proven her wrong, breaking her teenage heart. He's come back with grand gestures and an offering of fire. Can she trust him?But there's more than romance in the air. Someone - or something is preying on unsuspecting victims. People are missing. There's whispers of Aitu, Teine Sa, curses and blood vengeance. Are the stories of Saumaeafe and her sisters true? And who has dared to challenge them?

Wil Wheaton--blogger, geek, and Star Trek: The Next Generation's Wesley Crusher--gives us five short-but-true tales of life in the so-called Space Age in Dancing Barefoot. With a true geek's unflinching honesty, Wil examines life, love, the web, and the absurdities of Hollywood in these compelling autobiographical narratives. Based on pieces first published in Wil's hugely popular blog, www.wilwheaton.net, the stories in Dancing Barefoot chronicle a teen TV star's journey to maturity and self-acceptance. Far from the usual celebrity tell-all, Dancing Barefoot is a vivid account of one man's version of that universal story, the search for self.

In the process of uncovering his true geeky self, Wil Wheaton speaks to the inner geek in all of us. The stories: Houses in Motion - Memories fill the emptiness left within a childhood home, and saying goodbye brings them to life. Ready Or Not Here I Come - A game of hide-n-seek with the kids works as a time machine, taking Wil on a tour of the hiding and seeking of years gone by. Inferno - Two 15-year-olds pass in the night leaving behind pleasant memories and a perfumed Car Wars Deluxe Edition Box Set. We Close Our Eyes - A few beautiful moments spent dancing in the rain.
