The story in large part reflects a profound crisis in Hesse's spiritual world during the 1920s. Steppenwolf was wildly popular and has been a perpetual success across the decades, but Hesse later asserted that the book was largely misunderstood.
She'll do anything or anyone to get her boss's attention... After dropping out from college when I was caught on my knees too often with the professor's assistants, I got a job as a receptionist at the law firm of a family friend. The owner--or 'Sir' as I like to call him--is fun to tease. I can sense he wants me, but he refuses to touch me. I've always had a thing for older men, and John ticks all the boxes. He has that stern voice and firm hand that makes my entire body tingle. When he gets annoyed by me kneeling before an intern, it ignites something within me and now I'm unable to control myself. I'm going to taste everyone I can until he gives in to my desires. I've decided he's going to be my first and nothing else will satisfy me.Ver livro

How angry should I be? Dan betrayed me to Robert Maxim, but I found out after I decided to trust Robert Maxim. I laughed out loud. Blue, my dog, raised his head and checked my face, letting his tail tap against the floor. I smiled down at him and scratched under his chin. He tapped louder. "What do you think?" I asked him. "What should I do about this betrayal?" As usual Blue did not have a response. Wind battered the plane, whistling around the small vessel. The pilot's forearms strained to hold the plane steady. As we neared the ground one wing dipped for a moment before touching down with a jolt that knocked all anxiety out of my mind, sharpening my vision and pumping me full of adrenaline. The wind continued to push against the plane but we were down. We were safe. When the plane came to a stop, I stood, grabbed my small bag from the seat next to me, and waited as the co-pilot opened the door. The stairs unfolded and met the tarmac as an open-topped Jeep Wrangler pulled alongside the plane. Dan was at the wheel. His hair was longer than the last time I'd seen him. It covered his ears and brushed the neckline of his worn cotton green T-shirt. His beard was shaggy, bleached from the sun and wild-looking. Dan smiled as he looked up at me. I couldn't help but return the grin. Blue and I made our way down the steps. Dan embraced me; he smelled like sunscreen, salty sea, and a whiff of coconut. Blue tapped his feet next to us, waiting impatiently for his own greeting. I wrapped my arms around Dan's neck and pushed my face into his chest, breathing in his intoxicating scents. Closing my eyes, I reveled in the final moment before I exploded our relationship. P.S. The dog never dies.Ver livro
