Whispers of an Island Heart
Some stories are not meant to be shouted.
They are meant to be whispered.
It’s Antonina’s first year at university, a girl from Ōtara stepping into the country’s most prestigious campus, carrying the weight of expectation and the lingering feeling of being an outsider in someone else’s world. Between late nights, first crushes, new friendships and the chaos of becoming an adult. She begins to find her place with the steady support of her friends and grounding love of her family.
Antonina believes she has the year carefully mapped out, until she meets him…
What follows is a journey of emotional awakening, self-discovery, and the fragile beauty of first love. Rooted in Pacific warmth, humour and lived experience, Antonina’s story holds both youthful impulsiveness and the quiet weight of where she comes from. She invites readers into the moments that shaped her, the almost love that lingered, the heartbreaks left unresolved, and the constant pull between desire, family, faith, culture and identity.
Antonina explores what it means to grow into yourself while carrying the echoes of who you once were. It is about the relationships that changed us, the words we never said, and the healing that arrives not suddenly, but slowly, over time.
Whispers of an Island Heart is for anyone who has ever held on too long, loved too deeply, or searched for themselves in the quiet spaces in between.

In the middle of the night, I dream. There’s a mysterious girl who lives in a magical place and acts like she knows me better than I know myself. We hide from the Man with Too Many Teeth. Some nights I wake up with my heart pounding and the urge to eat raw meat.
It’s just a dream, right?

But Pua’s not really a woman.
A shape-shifting Niuhi shark, Pua feels compelled to visit the beach at Lauele. She doesn’t care that it’s forbidden by her father, the ocean god Kanaloa, or that breaking kapu can only end in blood, tears, and teeth. Justin’s a tourist. Here today, gone tomorrow.
Nobody’d even miss him.
What starts out as a casual flirtation soon turns into a high-stakes cat and mouse courtship as neither Justin nor Pua are who—or what—they seem.
