Kaikilani

“I wanted nothing to do with the war between Kohala and Hana but I had little choice… or did I?” Kaikilani becomes queen of Kona in the midst of war. She promises to send troops to help in the war, but the people refuse her call to arms. To them, she’s nothing more than the “stuttering queen.” Even more frustrating, Kaikilani is betrothed, a marriage that will compensate for her father’s survival in war. And while she tries to stay positive about the upcoming marriage, her heart yearns for Lono, her betrothed’s brother, a young man she knew in the past. Kaikilani knows she must make a change… Because the more she tries to follow the war traditions of previous rulers, the more conflicted and chaotic she feels. But standing up for herself comes with the cost of losing her parents’ approval, something she fears to lose more than anything else. Kaikilani is inspired by the Hawaiian legend “Lono and Kaikilani,” retold by King Kalakaua, one of Hawaii’s last monarchs.
