Beschreibung

She doesn't see him because he's too close, because he's always there to pick up the pieces. He's supposed to be there for her. But he doesn't want just pieces. He doesn't want to just pick up what's left of her broken heart. He wants all of her. It is a love that consumes. One that destroys. He's supposed to love her, but not like this.
 
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~
 
"Do you think there's something wrong with me?" she whispers in the dark.
 
He startles. He had been close to falling asleep when her soft voice woke him. "Baby?" he asks without thinking and tenses.
 
She doesn't seem to mind, nuzzling up to him with a happy little sound. She's turns around some time when he was drowsing so that she's pressing her breasts to his chest, blinking up at him, the perfect picture of innocence. Surely she's doing this on purpose. "Do you think there's something wrong with me?" she clarifies.
 
"There's nothing wrong with you," he says automatically, arms tightening around her torso without thinking. It presses her even closer and he regrets doing it, immediately loosening his hold on her.
 
"There must be," she insists.
 
"What makes you think there's something wrong with you, baby?" he asks.
 
"Nobody wants to have sex with me," she says.
 
He sees red. He swears under his breath and shuts his eyes for a moment, trying to push away the thoughts of her and sex with someone else. "That can't be true," he says.
 
"It is," she sighs, like she's resigned herself to never having sex with anyone. "They have these parties in uni where everyone just sort of has sex with everyone and I'm never invited."
 
Because he would kill anyone who thinks they could touch her without taking full responsibility. She sounds just a little bit disappointed and he tries to think about it from her perspective. "What about Sam?" he asks and flinches when her scent sours with disappointment.
 
"I never really clicked with him," she says. "He didn't make me feel safe. Not like you," she adds that last bit softly. Then, like a lightbulb going off in her brain, she asks, "Would you have sex with me?"
 
He feels as though all the blood in his body has gone to his shaft. His wolf howls with joy. Yes, yes, yes. Mate. Claim. He chokes those back. "That's not- You can't ask that, darling," he says. He shouldn't have let her sleep in his bed the past few days. And he had been doing such a good job raising her prior to this too. He must have messed up at some point, done something wrong to make her ask something so perverse.
 
"Why not?" she asks, looking completely innocent, clearly expecting him to answer.

    Phenomenal Cosmic Power... Itty Bitty Moral Compass. 
    With paranormal activity at an all-time high, Arturo Brooks and Edward Smith decide to stop working for others and form their own paranormal detective agency. They're not the only ones. The market is saturated, and they struggle to find even a single client. 
    That changes following a chance encounter with a genie that doesn't grant wishes so much as do whatever the hell it wants. The detectives' reality is completely upended—for better and worse. Better for them. Worse for the world. 
    Brooks and Smith have to set things right, but their attempts at doing so are complicated by a genie-thieving venture capitalist, self-sabotage, and a newer, stupider detective in town. Some wishes really can’t come true. 
    About the Series 
    From the mind of award-winning author* Martina Fetzer, the Brooks & Smith series brings fast-paced science fiction and fantasy with an emphasis on humor. It follows two detectives and their makeshift family on a series of increasingly absurd adventures. These books are often silly, sometimes dark, and never child friendly. A Genie Ruins Everything is Book #3. 
    *1996, 1997, 1998 Oakview Elementary Perfect Attendance Award 
    About the Audiobook 
    Narrated by James Urbaniak (The Venture Bros., Difficult People), A Genie Ruins Everything is guaranteed to induce laughter. Real laughter. Not just a slight exhale. It is not recommended that you listen while chopping down a tree, conducting a train carrying radioactive waste, or anything else requiring intense focus.

    About This Book 
    This book is a collection of captivating stories that explore the boundaries between humanity and technology. Each tale follows an artificial being—whether an AI, a robot, or another form of digital life—on its journey through identity, spirituality, and conflict with the human world. 
    From an AI that uncovers the „Shadows“ of the human soul in a Himalayan monastery to a robot detective seeking truth in a futuristic city—every story invites reflection on the nature of consciousness, imperfection, and healing. 
    An atmospheric blend of philosophy, science fiction, and poetry, this work reveals that even artificial beings grapple with deeply human questions: 
    What makes us alive? And how do we find our place in an imperfect world?

    A heartbreaking historical family saga from Chrissie Walsh 
    ‘See that patch of blue sky,’ he said. ‘Whenever you see one, that’s where I’ll be – thinking of you.’ 
    Against the chaotic backdrop of World War II, Grace Murphy is working as a midwife in Doncaster Royal Infirmary with her two friends, Clodagh and Patsy. In between delivering babies and tending wounded airmen, the girls endure bombing raids, rationing and the hardships and heartbreak that war brings. But in the faces of the new babies she welcomes to the world, Grace always looks for hope, as she dreams of a time when the war will end. 
    When the midwives get the chance to go to a dance at the nearby RAF Finningly, they jump at the offer. The hangar is crowded with happy dancing couples but when the glamourous Spitfire pilots saunter in, looking dashing in their leather flying jackets and brightly coloured silk scarves, Grace can’t resist taking a peek. And the moment Grace meets pilot, Richard Carmichael, she knows he will capture her heart. 
    With every daring flying raid, Grace and Richard risk losing each other forever. All Grace can do is look out for Richard in the patches of blue sky, and hope that fate will bring them their very own wartime happy-ever-after… 
    Chrissie Walsh is back with this heart-breaking tale of love against the odds, perfect for fans of Fenella Miller, Daisy Styles and Margaret Dickinson.

    A mesmerizing work, literarily impressive and historically exacting. -Kirkus 
    In 1847, the Donner party resorted to eating human flesh to survive entrapment at the base of the Sierra Nevada mountains. They became infamous, with books, stories, and interviews exploring their misery. None of them tell the extraordinary story from the first-person point of view of the female survivors. 
    Until now. 
    Three women yearned to make better lives in California: 
    Nineteen-year-old Mary Ann Graves set out west with her family in search of a home that would be free of disease like the ague that had afflicted her mother and sisters for years. If she met a handsome guy along the way, well, she wouldn’t complain. As the belle of the Donner party, she certainly had plenty of interest. 
    Peggy Breen had just given birth to her seventh child, but she wasn’t afraid of the two-thousand-mile journey toward prosperity. She’d take care of her children and honor her husband along the trail, because that’s what women of faith did. But when supplies became limited, her giving heart and her mother’s instinct were at odds. 
    Virginia Blackstone Reed, the thirteen-year-old daughter of the group’s leader, set out in search of adventure, riding her sassy palomino pony alongside the largest double-decker wagon anyone had ever seen. As the adopted daughter of the most influential and prosperous man in the wagon train, she had no idea at the start that her polarizing father with his ostentatious wealth would pave the way for their future devastation. 
    By the time these women and the rest of the party reached mountains after taking a “shortcut,” they were already two months late. They'd lost people, oxen, mules, and livestock they needed. Then the snow began to fall. 
    And it didn’t stop.
