Inside Tahiti: The Setting of An Unbound Romance

Reading a novel by Dave A. Gardener is like being transported into another world with exotic locations and beautiful settings.

In Dave’s debut romantic adventure novel, An Unbound Romance, protagonist Alena Romanova journeys to Tahiti. In this new tropical world, she discovers the beauty of French Polynesia, and within these isles of paradise, she begins to open her heart and fall in love again.

Journey with Alena to discover Tahiti and the surrounding islands that she visits in the novel. Start with the video below for an overview of seeing Tahiti from Alena’s point of view.

Next, watch a music video by Ken Carlter, who introduces the beautiful culture of French Polynesia. The music and dancing welcome you to this amazing place. “Ia Ora Na” is the greeting of hello in Tahitian, and the song is an invitation for visitors to come. The word “Maeva” in the second video means welcome, and in that video, you can hear a mix of Tahitian and French, the way Alena discovers it on her visit.

This final video is almost literally a window view from the novel. Relax and hang out at the beach in Bora Bora, exactly the way Alena does in the novel.
