With centuries-old tradition and an impassioned traditionalist against her, can a champion of family ties save her menfolk from exile?
Livli dreads losing her father, brothers—and her unborn son. The men and women of her people dwell apart, gathering together only on rare fête-days, but the young healer longs to see her kin more often. When the arrival of a grievously injured outlander galvanizes a traditional lodge-sister to urge returning to the old ways of greater isolation, Livli fears forfeiting even these treasured visits.
Vowing to see her father and brothers whenever she wishes and to keep her baby, whether girl or boy, Livli asks her friends to speak out. But while they persuade as many as will listen, and she tackles the lodge-mother, her foe doubles down, demanding that men be banned entirely from the lodge. And Livli is stunned to learn that a surprising number desire this strong measure.
Unless Livli convinces her lodge-sisters that generous interludes with fathers, brothers, and sons offer essential wellbeing for all, their menfolk risk banishment forever.
Livli’s Gift is the engrossing second book in the relationship-focused Kaunis Clan Saga, a fantasy trilogy. If you enjoy insightful tales told with engaging intimacy, you’ll love J.M. Ney-Grimm’s absorbing novel.
