Why Readers Love Kealohilani’s Stories
Spotlight Reviews From A Few Of Kealohilani’s Readers
“I rarely read fiction novels but since I was living in Hawaii at the time and the author was a local, I decided I would buy a copy for my daughter. However, after reading the synopsis on the back cover, my interest was peaked so that as soon as my daughter finished reading [The Half-Hearts Chronicles book one and book two], I started reading it and to my surprise, could not put [them] down. I read [them] in four days and only because I did have to eat and sleep and cook for my family. The storyline is fascinating, and the author uses such detailed descriptive writing that the imagery comes alive in your mind as you read so that you are drawn into the story and feel like you are there, a part of their world. You are on the edge of your seat as you experience the joy, the pain, the heartache, the love, and you find yourself aching for more at the end of [each] book. I seriously cannot wait for the next book to be released and I want to be at the Premiere when this becomes a movie and Hunger Games is forgotten!”
~Anette C. (About the novel, The Half-Hearts Chronicles books one and two)
“This book is great! I am sure by the title, you could tell that it is a spin-off of Romeo and Juliet. But please don’t let that fool you. I promise this 100% original idea will keep you guessing until the very end! A true page-turner.
The plot is full of twists that fully complement the exquisite development of the characters.
I am waiting for more from this author!”
~Daniel K. (About the novel, Romeo Killed Juliet)

In this literary masterpiece of… [Heaven] only knows how many words – four of them jumped out at me: “magically prepared” & “gastronomic nirvana.” These two pairs sum up the whole succinctly.

Never in my life have I eagerly anticipated Books two and three of any series which such ferocity. ~ Veronica Grey, popular TV guest and critically acclaimed author.
