It’s Halloween in Hawaii. Those sexy hula dancers Kimo and Lopaka are hiding their endangered children in the secret, mysterious Kahuna (high priest) Village on the Big Island. Most Hawaiian residents think this ancient village is pure myth. But it is very real. For hundreds of years, it has been the refuge of the sick, the injured…and those in mortal peril.
While Kimo, the Keeper of Secrets of the old Hawaiian way has managed to protect his family from the living, he hadn’t banked on the hundred year old obake (ghost) of a lost, murdered female Japanese obon dancer. Taking refuge in the body of his beloved husband Lopaka, Aoi refuses to leave. Kimo and the residents of the Kahuna Village must help her find her way to what she calls The Pureland…except that Aoi’s starting to like being alive again. Featuring all the lovable, familiar characters from the sexy and exciting Phantom Lover series, Beguiled lifts the veil on some of the old ghosts of Hawaii’s plantation past and often turbulent cultural history.

ISLAND MAGIC, FASCINATING LEGENDS, SACRED TRADITIONS AND HOT, HOT, HOT LOVING!!rnIf you've not yet picked up one of AJ Llewellyn's "Phantom
Lover" books - shame on you! I have just finished reading all 10 of the current releases and can thoroughly recommend them all. I'd suggest
reading the titles in order (although each story is a stand alone adventure) as this will enable you to become a member of Kimo and Lopaka's family.
This is truly how it feels once you get drawn into AJ's world. His stories will have you laughing and crying, as well as introducing you to the
intense love between Kimo and his wife Lopaka - and make you a riveted voyeur to their hot sex life too! :o) All of the stories contain a very strong
sense of family ties and friendship, as well as a true appreciation for the ancient gods and goddesses of the Hawaiian culture. I've learnt so much
about this fascinating place and the Hawaiian Glossary at the back of most of the books is a font of information. Thanks AJ! Each book shows such
incredible attention to detail that the scenes come alive to the reader, and your attention is captured from the first page and held till the very
last. The Legends and traditions of Hawaii are shown the respect they deserve throughout the series by this talented author and all I can say in
conclusion is that this series is awesome and you won't regret adding it to your collection.
