Review: This is book two of this series and to get into it you must start with book one. Malakai, also known as Kane was once a Hawaiian god until he pissed off his lover Kanaloa. Kanaloa was a very nasty and bitter god, and with his powers, he banishes Malakai to live out as a shape-shifting vampire. Malakai had fallen in love with Jepoi. Jepoi was a human and a very sexy nurse. After catching a deadly disease, Malakai had saved him. However jealous of their relationship Kanaloa kidnaps Jepoi and turns him into a vampire.
Jepoi has to learn what it is like to be a vampire and he must find his way back to Malakai. Their tempers are flaring hot in this story as is their feelings for each other. Kanaloa once again gets angered and sends out the demons and monsters on the island. In most stories, a jealous god would have just killed Jepoi, but I think Kanaloa realizes if he did that then he would definitely loose Malakai. I love the fact there is so much love and passion between Malakai and Jepoi. You can tell it is there with their words and their actions. How Malakai would have done everything in his power to get Jepoi back. He would have searched the world and brought his mate back. He would have also killed Kanaloa.
This story has a lot of twist and turns that make it interesting. I love the dangers that are coming at them from all the directions. I love the way each character shows their feelings so easily. Whether is love, lust, passion, anger and you can tell the strengths that comes from each other. I am not really sure about this story though. I just couldn’t get my attention to stay on it. I want a book that can capture my attention from the start and keep it all the way to the end, but this story was just too bizarre and too hard to follow. I just didn’t understand parts of it.
I would recommend this story because even though I could not really get into it, it is a good story. It has Hawaiian gods, sexy men, dangers from all directions, hot sex and some major quirks. I can’t wait to read the next book. Even though the first book and this one was a bit difficult to get into it is a really good story.
