✦ Synopsis

Teuila is a daughter of Samoa returning home after ten years away in New York where she is a brilliant sculptor taking the art world by storm. According to the critics, "her hands give life to everything she touches" but only a few people know how true that statement really is, the secret of her Fanua Gift. Even fewer know the troubled past she has worked so hard to move beyond. She's returned finally to give back to the Nafanua Center, with an international auction of her art. It should have been a straightforward charity fundraiser - until he walked in.
Keahi Meredith. MMA world champion turned Oscar-winning movie star, and this year's People Magazine's 'Sexiest Man Alive'. Teuila hasn't seen him since he abruptly left Samoa fourteen years ago, without even saying goodbye. She'd thought they were friends and he'd proven her wrong, breaking her teenage heart. He's come back with grand gestures and an offering of fire. Can she trust him?
But there's more than romance in the air. Someone - or something is preying on unsuspecting victims. People are missing. There's whispers of Aitu, Teine Sa, curses and blood vengeance. Are the stories of Saumaeafe and her sisters true? And who has dared to challenge them?
