Defending Engagement by Liz Ellyn

Three people in love. One family ready to tear them apart.

Polyamory Novella
Defending Engagement by Liz Ellyn

JD, Ian, and Sasha share a love that’s passionate and all-consuming. At home, their polyamorous relationship burns bright, but beyond their Chicago home, judgment waits to tear them apart.

At the O’Malley family’s annual St. Patrick’s Day party, whispers turn to outright condemnation—immorality, illegality, and forbidden love. JD and Ian fear the scorn will drive Sasha away. They underestimate Sasha’s ability to eviscerate closed-minded arguments and fight to defend their love.

It is time to take a stand and defend their relationship.
