With the Jarl's Blessing: A Yuletide Tale

By: Ki Brightly

Narrated by: Clive Johnson

Odin, the jarl’s son, wants to be with Loki and has for as long as he can remember. Odin intends to use the magic of Yuletide - the time between the old year and the new one - to win over Loki.

Loki doesn’t need much convincing to see how wonderful Odin is, but he can’t see a future for himself with the son of a jarl. How would it be possible?

With the jarl’s blessing, Odin hopes to prove, once and for all time, he’s the man for Loki.

This is a 10,000-word Yule tale meant to help warm a listener through the gloom of the winter solstice, the year’s longest night. Happy holidays and happy listening!

Sweet heat

This was a surprising mix of sweetness and spice. Something about the winter setting gave it a magical intimate feel. For such a short story, I was also surprised at how much I felt we got to know the characters.

The narration was really well done. The voices has their own distinct personality and the tone was consistently on point.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

A yuletide tale

The story is very short and sweet. It is for the young and also for the young at hearts. I really enjoyed this short audiobook.

A sexy short story

The two seem sweet enough and both longed for the other. I enjoyed the time they spent listening to the poets just as much as the ending.

Knowing this was to be a quick listen I thought it was wonderful. The authors writing makes me want more. The narration was amazing. Clive Johnson has a nice voice. I enjoyed how the voices were changed for both men and the tones were just right to give them both a sexy sound.

I did have to slow the reading down to 90 for my liking.

With the Jarl's Blessing

This is a sweet story about two men who long for one another and finally take the chance during this special time of the year. Loki never thought he had a real chance with Odin but all the glances and touches from the man give him hope that one day they could be so much more than friends. When Odin surprises Loki will he grab his chance at happiness?

I enjoyed this story. It gives listeners a beautiful tale of romance between two young men uncertain about the reactions to their feelings. Odin and Loki’s friendship is strong, and both men want more but can they have a chance at love? Odin is ready to show Loki his true feelings and put his heart on the line. These two make a wonderful couple. Their feelings show in everything that they do. Their story is a short and sexy read that will have you embracing the magic of love. Narrator Clive Johnson brings their story to life nicely. The narrative has a good flow to it and I was quickly lost in the story and its characters.
