About this ebook
‘the Chronicles of Kaya sweeps the reader into an unforgettable world’ Sophie Masson
Lovers in Kaya have always died together, bonded in death as in life. But a cure for the bond has sent rumours like wildfire through the land. A team of young Kayans will be sent on a quest to find the answer and, with rebellion brewing, the very nature of love is at stake.
The beautiful but reckless Finn has never shied away from danger, and ending the bond means more to her than anyone knows. This adventure sounds thrilling to her, but Finn has always been willing to risk too much, and for the first time must face the idea that she has something – or someone – to lose.
Crown Prince Thorne, in the neighbouring land of Pirenti, has grown up rejecting the legacy of his father’s blood, keeping caged the beast that lies dormant within. But the moment he sets eyes on the wild girl from the Kayan cliffs, his usual caution hasn’t a hope of surviving.
As the world crumbles around them, can Finn and Thorne cast off the shadows to find a love stronger than either imagined? Or is their true challenge to find a way to embrace the darkness within?

Charlotte, my favorite author of all time, you have outdone your self again. I've fallen in love with your heartbreakingly tragic but beautiful worlds. Magnificent! Can't wait for Isadora.

Awesome story and awesome storytelling! I was mesmerised by the first book 'Avery' and this is even better! I cannot wait for the next story, Isadora. That was definitely a surprise. Thank you Charlotte for your amazing talent!
