Two worlds. One song.
Though their hasty marriage began as a matter of convenience, Taar and Ilsevel have discovered a love worth every risk, every hurt, and every obstacle standing before them. Newly heart-bound to one of the sacred unicorns of Licorna, Ilsevel hopes she will at last find her place in the world, while Taar seeks only to protect his spirited young wife from the prejudice of his tribe. But when they return to face the consequences of their actions, they meet with a cruel reality. "Cursebound," the people whisper, convinced Ilsevel is a human mage who has ensorcelled both their king and the unicorn she rides. Her death is demanded by all. Taar, however, believes in his wife and the miraculous connection she shares with her unicorn. He convinces the elders to let her undergo a dreadful ordeal—a ritual used to prove the validity of a contested bond. More dangerous than any terror Ilsevel has yet faced, it is now her only hope for survival. With the threat of war looming over their heads, and the knowledge that Taar may soon be summoned to fight, can Ilsevel prove she belongs among her husband's people? Or is harmony impossible between two such different worlds? Continue the adventure begun with WarBride, where irresistible love leads to irrevocable consequence. Book three of a planned quartet, CurseBound will capture your heart! Intended for mature listeners.
