The Barber brothers know their way around a football field--but can
they succeed on the basketball court? Find out in this slam dunk
with "lively basketball action and life lessons aplenty ("Kirkus
Reviews")" from NFL superstars and bestselling authors Tiki and
Ronde Barber.
As Tiki and Ronde count the days until the start of football
season, the basketball coach approaches them looking for new
recruits, and Tiki and Ronde sign on.
While Hidden Valley Junior High has always been a powerhouse in
football, the school has never done as well in basketball. Ronde is
a good passer, but he needs Tiki to get free to sink his shots.
Tiki doesn't feel the inner confidence he felt on the football
field: it's one thing to play in the driveway, but it's another to
sink one on the court, when so much is on the line. The brothers
need a winning attitude--and they need to bring everyone together
to win. That is their only way to victory. Can they do it?
From NFL superstars Tiki and Ronde Barber, a story of teamwork and
determination--in the classroom as well as on the field.
The eighth-grade season couldn't be going better for the Barbers'
team, the Hidden Valley Egales. Everything is off to a strong
start--until one of the key players on the team is benched for
academic probation. Without good grades there is no playing time.
No exceptions. Ever. Will the team's hopes for the season be
demolished, or can they find a way to help their teammate get his
grades up? Fortunately for the Barber brothers, it turns out that
the team that plays together can study together too.
Tiki and Ronde were the stars of their Pee Wee football team, the
Cave Springs Vikings. But middle school is much bigger than
elementary school and it's a whole different game--on and off the
field. When Coach Spangler takes a job coaching for the high school
team and Tiki's old science teacher Mr. Wheeler is tapped for the
middle school coaching job, the beginning of the school year and
the football season is off to a bumpy start. But through working
together, the boys discover that the whole team is bigger than any
of its parts.

after being discovered by the crew. After making his way to shore,
he meets a female Menehune. He is amazed to find out that she has
similar abilities to his own. Along the way, they form a love for
one another that goes beyond their differences and discover a

pictures that young children can color, while following along with
the story. We invite you to explore a world of joy and wonder with
the adventures of Kawila and Seamus, the Menehune and the
Leprechaun. Enjoy their journey together and see the special magic
that happens when Irish Charm meets the Aloha Spirit.
Murder, Sex, Exotic Cocktails and Exotic Women. And of course, some
very eerie phantoms... Volume II in the Bill Riggins Mystery Series
NOTE: This murder mystery/ghost story deals with adult themes,
horror, violence and language, and is not intended for children. If
it were a movie it would be rated NC-17. You've been warned. Set in
New York City and the Florida Keys in 1956, Murder on Tiki Island
is a noir-style murder mystery which follows Detective Bill Riggins
(Murder Behind the Closet Door) through a journey of strange,
unexplained events surrounding a murder and paranormal phenomena on
Florida's world-famous Tiki Island Resort. Influenced by the style
made famous by pulp fiction's greatest authors from Raymond
Chandler to Mickey Spillane, Murder on Tiki Island weaves an
intricate web of lies, murder, and the occult shaken with a shot of
hot dames and a chaser of cool tropical breezes. Penned by "Tiki"
Chris Pinto, author of the noir mystery ghost story Murder Behind
the Closet Door, this 1950s style thriller will keep you hanging on
edge from the first sentence to the last. Swing back to 1956, when
jazz and rock 'n' roll both ruled the airwaves, giant finned cars
ruled the roadways and Tiki Bars were the hottest spots on the
nightlife scene. Riggins, a New York City detective, takes a
'forced vacation' to Tiki Island in the world-famous Florida Keys
and Key West. Once there he gets mixed up with the seductive
daughter of the resort's wealthy owner; gets taken for a wild ride
by a beautiful blonde bombshell; and gets himself suspected of a
brutal murder. Skeletons, mermaids, Mai Tais, Exotica music,
fishing and phantoms all come together to make this Key West murder
mystery a fun, old-fashioned pulp noir novel with a modern edge
that's sure to please anyone who digs the mid-century scene, or
just loves plain old fashioned noir-style detective novels. Tiki
Chris Pinto's Florida Keys murder mystery will have you spooked and
guessing throughout the entire story, with a few twists that will
get you saying, "Wow, daddy-o Dig that crazy scene " Excerpts from
Review by Everett Peacock, Author & Hawaiian Culture
Ambassador: "I read the previous work by this author, Murder Behind
the Closet Door, and was an automatic pre-sold reader of whatever
he might do next. I was not disappointed, in fact I like this novel
much better....Character development is ensured and rich and that
alone would sell me on this book...Lastly, being a Tiki fan of the
first order, I enjoyed the weaving of that theme throughout the
book. This book frames quite a picture: the tropical heat, the
thunderstorms offshore dancing with the sea and a little island
beneath it all. It fit very well with the islands of Florida, a
favorite place of mine since the late 1950s..."
Isabelle has a desire: One she can't meet even with all the riches
in the world. She starts on an unsafe journey,looking for that
special something to fill her need. Will Isabelle find the wish she
hopes for or a nightmare she can not escape.
Tiki Barber, former running back for the New York Giants and
current Today show correspondent, has seemingly led a charmed life.
Whether on the field or in front of the camera, the Smiling Giant
makes everything look easy. But it has taken a lot of motivation,
hard work, and help from those around him to get where he is today.
Here, he recounts his extraordinary life to date-being raised in
semi-rural Virginia alongside his twin brother, Ronde, by a strong
single mother who made every sacrifice to make sure her boys had
all the tools they needed to succeed in life; getting drafted in
1997 by the Giants, where he eventually became a standout running
back after overcoming injuries and flaws in his game with the help
of his coaches and teammates; his stellar 2005 season, when he
finished the year with 2,390 yards from scrimmage (the
second-highest total in NFL history); and the controversies that
marred the Giants' 2006 season, including the surprise announcement
of his retirement at the age of thirty-one. As much as Tiki takes
you into the locker room, past the sidelines, and onto the field to
give you the view from inside the huddle, this book is also an
inspirational look at his arduous evolution from ordinary player to
elite-on the field and off-and at the amazing people along the way
who have helped him achieve his goals. Tiki takes on the role of
both the interviewer and the interviewee in special "Tiki
Interviews Tiki" sections, as he asks and answers the really tough
questions. Tiki is a riveting, inspiring read for all who want to
know what really goes on behind the scenes, and for anyone looking
for the strength to step up and follow his or her dreams.
