Fran's guest on January 23 at 4PM EST 3PM CST  will be Stephen A.Enna and Dennis J Wooten. When authors Stephen A. Enna and Dennis J Wootten penned their wildly successful political thriller, Aloha in 2011, about a gay American president who brokers a deal to sell Hawaii to China to pay off the national debt and raise 13 trillion dollars, little did they envision that the book would spawn a popular trilogy and that it would eventually lead them to publish the second half of the series.  Shalom! Is the first book in the new series and follows with the familiar themes and story lines that made the Aloha! trilogy so popular with readers. Shalom! also revisits favorite characters from the first trilogy as America heads into an uncertain future...sound familiar?
