Gemma's a successful architect in London, but her personal life has been a mess since her engagement ended in a very public disaster. She throws herself into work until a chance meeting with an aloof and dominating billionaire at a Christmas party awakens a side of her she never knew she had, a side that wants to let someone else take control for a while. Cole's got his own painful past relationship, which is the reason all his bedroom encounters come with strictly defined terms, not to mention the reason that he hates Christmas. He's not looking for a change, but Gemma's unusual mix of confidence and submission leaves him wanting more. The two strike a deal to satisfy their mutual attraction, but will their sparks in the bedroom give new warmth to the rest of their lives as well, or is their relationship destined to bloom only for the holidays, just like the mistletoe? This book contains BDSM content unsuitable for listeners under the age of 18.Voir livre

Drowning in a series of sudden losses, Allie abruptly left her blossoming opera career to, instead, explore sound meditation. Choosing a singing bowl over an orchestra, she reveled in the pure, simple harmonics that temporarily quieted the raging characters in her mind.

Fast forward six years, Babaji invites Allie to join him and several others in Nepal for the pilgrimage of a lifetime. Envisioning a meditative journey surrounded by the serene, majestic mountains, Allie travels to Nepal hoping to find peace, but the challenges of rising egos, monsoon rains, shamanic rituals, floods, and magic combine to threaten her very existence. Struggling with blurred lines of reality, magic, and the tormenting shadows buried deep within her, Allie’s healing journey grows from blinding grief to peace, bullying to strength, and opera to sunyata. Based on a true story.Voir livre
