The 'Ohana Tree edition by Rebecca Addison Contemporary Romance eBooks Reviews


Rebecca Addison wrote the most perfect story. With just the right amount of love and heart break, The Ohana Tree has easily made it's way into my top favorite books.

The Ohana Tree is about a young man torn between family, responsibility, passion, and love. The main character, Kai, will teach you about family and how family should care for one another and make sacrifices for one another. Kai is content with his living situation and routine until he meets Tessa. Kai is unaware that she will change everything. Is it possible to be afraid of loving someone too much?

This book kept me on the edge of my seat! I was an emotional wreck. I was happy, I was laughing, I was hurt, and at times I was balling my eyes out. There are many surprises and secrets throughout the book! I could not put it down!

I really enjoyed Addison's writing style! This story is very complex and is not going to be the story you are expecting to read. I look forward to reading more of Rebecca's work and hopefully seeing more of Kai and Tessa.

Always remember, "Family isn't always the people who made you; it's the people who love you".
I was so excited to get my hands on this book because I was such a huge fan of Rebecca's first book, Still Waters. If you haven't read it yet, go get it now!

It's so hard to put into words how much I loved this story. It's a story of loss, love, hope, responsibility, and most importantly, family. It's so beautifully written that I could picture all of the scenery of the island, especially the fruit trees that Kai and Tessa take walks in at Kai's family house. At first, I felt like Kai and Tessa were so different and I couldn't quite see in her what he saw. However, as the story goes on, I saw how much their music brought them together and how the simple thought of family is something important to both of them (Kai's overabundance of family and Tessa's lack thereof). I kept waiting for the story to take the predicable turn where Tessa did what she always does (I don't want to give too much away here). I was so pleasantly surprised with the turn it took instead where Kai and Tessa take the harder, more difficult road instead of the easy way out. Their journey together was really beautiful.

There were so many emotions running through this book, and I felt every one of them. When Kai is in the hotel and calls his dad from the bathroom... the tears just started. I adored reading about every single one of the secondary characters and their role in the story. Kai's dad was on a difficult journey of his own, and I was so proud of him at the end. I also really loved Akamu and thought that he brought a lot of humor to the story. Overall, it was just the feeling of unconditional love that I got that you have for your family. You can be angry, disappointed, sad, but the love for them is always there.

One thing I hope to see in the second book is part of it written from Tessa's POV. I loved that this entire book was in Kai's POV and I thought that was really important to see just how much of a genuinely good person he is and to leave parts of Tessa a mystery to the reader just as she was a bit of a mystery to Kai. Now that we know where Tessa is headed in her journey, it would be great to peek a bit into her head. I can't wait for book 2!

*ARC kindly provided by the author in exchange for an honest review*
"‘Ohana is an idea in Hawaiian culture. The word ʻohana means family in the Hawaiian language, but in a much wider sense, to include not only one's closer relatives, but also one's homeland, cousins, in-laws, friends, race, and other neighbors."

After reading and enjoying Rebecca Addison’s marvelous debut novel, "Still Waters", I was really anxious for the release of her latest book that begins a new series and offers a very different vibe. It is the quality in the details and descriptions that showcase this author’s distinctive writing style. The setting is beautiful Hawaii where plenty of island customs and traditions are observed and celebrated within this story. Filled with beauty, symbolism, strength, heartache, longing, forgiveness and enduring love, this is a beautiful love story told in its many facets.

This profoundly moving story unfolds slowly and deliberately and is written totally in the male point of view. The single POV was my biggest challenge here because I favor the equality and diversity of both sides of the matter at hand. The characters are such opposites in many ways that having both of their voices heard just seemed like it would be a big plus. Not only are readers getting the story in present tense, but past history is woven throughout as well. Although told only by the lead male Kai, the one-voice point of view still generates a great deal of depth and feelings. I admit that this personal preference may predispose my feelings towards this story a bit.

The rich and multi-layered storyline involves so much more than just a romance. Emotions pour onto the pages and every sound and every feel is brought to life with vivid descriptions that entice and ensnare. Some scenes are intense and hit me strongly enough that tears (both happy and sad) ran down my cheeks. I applaud how easily the author is able to place us right alongside Kai and Tess as they face tough situations - keeping us cheering them on despite the cards stacked against them. The characters satisfy on every level. In addition to the main characters, the well-developed secondary cast – especially Kai’s father and younger brother, Akamu - feels like they might have their own stories to tell with their own set of problems to navigate, rather than just serve as props placed strategically to help or hinder at a given moment’s notice.

We begin the journey with Kai, the lead male character, who is bound by strong family ties and loyalty. He is a talented musician who dreams of leaving Hawaii to pursue a career away from the land that has been in his family for years. Even with what appears to be a strained relationship with his father, the meaning of “Ohana” runs deep within Kai, and he can’t see any way that would allow him to leave his family that depends on him so much. Anyone who has questioned their path in life will connect with Kai’s struggles. When Kai meets Tess, he’s immediately captivated by her, but also aware of the risks of falling for her. His brother, Akamu steps in to lend his strong support for the relationship between Kai and Tess and adds some comical relief, too.

Tess, the female lead is a free-spirited traveler and the complete opposite of Kai. She, too, is a gifted musician. Both are drawn to one another, but Tess doesn’t want a relationship for fear of hurting Kai. She doesn’t have the ties of family or home. But Kai won’t give up on her, and they fall into a work-in-progress relationship. Both characters have a bag full of back history that must be dealt with before sailing calm seas into a permanent future together.

So here is where we leave off with this young couple’s not-quite-finished-story that will resume in the next installment. I’ll be anxious to see what comes next for Kai and Tess in their continuing story.

It is my pleasure to highly recommend this book to readers looking for a refreshing and unique reading experience.
Very likeable characters and an interesting storyline. I really enjoyed this book!
I can't wait for Rebecca's next release )
