Hawaiian hula dancer Bobby Kikawa has deep fantasies about the dark, mysterious, Kimo Wilder, especially after Kimo poses for an erotic painting called Phantom Lover. He plans to seduce Kimo even though Kimo is straight, married and known for his extreme loyalty to his wife.

Alone on a hot night after dance rehearsal on the big island of Hawaii, Bobby manages to persuade Kimo to let him service his hot, neglected, extremely hungry passion.

The two men soon become embroiled in a red-hot fling that threatens not only Kimo’s marriage but Bobby’s sanity when he discovers Kimo is a ‘Keeper of Secrets’ in the Hawaiian culture…a man born of fire and hidden, taboo dark magic the ancient Hawaiians called Loa.

Phantom lover wasn't at all what I expected but I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. A.J Llewellyn has weaved a beautifully, orgasmic tale of forbidden love on a sensual island. A.J has mixed highly erotic pleasures with history that leaves you hanging on to every word of the tale.  This story is rich with an energy  that leaves you hanging on to every word of the tale. Phantom Lover is rich with history and Hawaiian culture that is breath-taking in its perfection. It is eveident that the author has down thorough research which is a breath of fresh air.  The characters were highly flawed and were real with emotion that emanated off the pages. Hot sex, beautiful scenery, conflicts that pulled me to the eadge of my seat and pulled at my heart, then add a dash of magic and you get a wonderfully delightful experience.

For writing a tale that makes me ache to visit Hawaii, and a piece of art that is so well thought out, highly erotic and delicious, I give Phantom Lover a French kiss.
