Ayana Fénix-Morgan, a London solicitor, finds her orderly life unravelling after a strange client brings more than a legal case to her desk. The encounter awakens an elemental legacy her mother once kept hidden. When a spectral stag appears in her garden, summoning her to an ancient trial, Ayana is drawn into a world where duty, renewal, and the natural world intertwine. Torn between logic and instinct, she must embrace the quiet strength of her Earth-born power to restore balance before it's too late. Gaia's Cradle is a cosy contemporary fantasy about legacy, renewal, and the courage it takes to let life change you.
