About this ebook
ABOUT THE SERIES:
Long ago, to win a war, humans Cursed the Aelfae, fairest and wisest of the faeries… But all magic has a price. The same Curse that destroyed the Aelfae now threatens all of Faearth. One young woman and the warrior she loves must fight the Curse to prove which is stronger…love or death.
DINDI desperate longs to become a Tavaedi, a magic dancer. But no one in her clan has ever passed the Test at Initiation. To violate the taboo, and dance without permission, is to risk death. The only other way to prove worthy is even more unthinkable: to bargain with the fae.
KAVIO is the half-human son of the Last Aelfae, exited from his tribe. Refusing to be a pawn in his tribe’s struggles, his only goal is to find a new, peaceful life. But when he catches Dindi violating a taboo, he must choose between condemning her to death or helping her. Even if it means war.
The Unfinished Song series is an epic, romantic fantasy appropriate for an older Young Adult and for a New Adult readership, as well as for readers of any age who love magic, love, adventure and happy endings.

Dindi
Each breath hurt.
Voices from the darkness had been complaining about feelings of suffocation since the stone had been rolled over the exit, but now it was no figment of a nervous imagination. The air smelled rank. Dindi had thought thirst would kill them before hunger, but it seemed asphyxiation would beat out both. No one could deny it now: they had been abandoned to die. Quiet weeping echoed from somewhere.
