Need a title for book two

Only Uni

That's the working title of book two in my Sushi Series. I don't think anyone even knows what uni is. And those who do probably think it's one of the grossest things ever eaten. If you haven't figured out by now, I'm hopeless at titles.

So that's where you come in! Any ideas for my new title?

Since the series is the Sushi Series, the name should reference Asian food or Asian food utensils.

Here's the story 411:

Book Description:



This is the second book of a proposed four-book series about four cousins: Lex, Trish, Venus and Jennifer. This is Trish's story, while each of the other books focuses on the other cousins as heroines. The cousins appear in all four books. They are all Asian American, fourth generation. Lex and Trish are full Japanese ethnicity, while Venus and Jennifer are half Japanese and half Chinese.

Sushi Series Overview



Four cousins—Lex the Jock, Trish the Vamp, Venus the Swan, and Jennifer the Oddball—commiserate their single status in the San Francisco Bay Area. As the only Christians in their large extended family, they vow to fight the stigma of the infamous family title, Oldest Single Female Cousin. But they have very different ideas about not acting as desperate as they feel about their bleak love lives. Who knew God would have His own plans of true love for each of them?

Book 2 story blurb



Flirty biologist Trish Sakai has alienated her best friends and her family because of her wild behavior with her artist ex-boyfriend, Kazuo. Then she finds her father kissing another woman, and her mom suffers a heart attack. Convinced God is punishing her for her sexual promiscuity, Trish comes up with three rules from First and Second Corinthians: 1) Stop looking at guys, 2) Only date Christians, and 3) Persevere in hardship by relying on God. If she follows them, God will restore her life to the way it was before her mistakes. If she can somehow regain her chastity, she won't feel as dirty and unworthy as she does now. They're only three rules. How hard can it be?

Spenser Wong finds himself attracted to his coworker Trish, but his dinner invitation gets slammed down with a lame excuse about Corinthians and rules. That cools his ardor pretty quick. But then Spenser discovers that his old enemy Kazuo needs Trish as the "muse" for his unfinished masterpiece painting due in a few months for a gallery show. Kazuo pursues Trish with everything he's got, but Spenser decides to throw a wrench in Kazuo's plans by pretending to pursue Trish himself.

Trish is going nuts trying to stand firm against two hunky guys. Her three simple rules aren't so simple anymore . . .

Well??? Any title ideas?

Well I am bad at titles too...so I will be praying for some inspiration for you :o)  I did think that Trish seems spicy so is there some spicy sushi that would maybe describe her...and then maybe something to describe her change  Like Wasabi and then something more boring like a California Roll or rice....hmmm I hope some of this made sense. Just an idea I suppose...

 I also wanted to tell you I read your short story about Martha, Mary, and Lazarus...amazing.  It was beautiful.  I am so glad you share your amazing gift of words with us :o)

Blessings to you.
