Today’s special feature is the historical romance and fantasy novel, A Grave Inheritance by Kari Edgren.
about A Grave Inheritance:
Selah
Kilbrid may descend from the goddess Brigid, but her heart beats—and breaks—the
same as any human. Yet enduring the scorn of London’s most noble lords and
ladies is a small price to pay for a chance at true happiness. Selah would
endure much more for love, and her betrothed, Lord Henry Fitzalan, is prepared
to challenge anyone foolish enough to stand in their way—even another goddess
born.
But
when a captivating young gentleman draws Selah into a world shadowed by
secrets, she is forced to confront her darkest fears. What if some differences
are too great to overcome and a future with Henry is doomed from the start?
With
these doubts threatening her impending marriage, a violent attack on an
innocent child pushes Selah to the very edge of her power. She must find a way
to cross into the Otherworld and regain her strength—or forfeit the streets of
London to death and disease.
