  In the Shadow of Eternity: The...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  This novel is a humble tribute to the sublime and heartbreaking love between the Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani and his last muse, Jeanne Hébuterne. It traces the tender arc of their brief yet incandescent love story, beginning in 1917 when they first met, and ending in 1920 with their tragic and untimely deaths. 
  Modigliani, already frail from illness and weighed by poverty and artistic struggle, found in Jeanne not only a muse but a soul mirror—an echo of his pain, passion, and longing. Jeanne, young and gentle, was drawn to the fire and depth of the man whose eyes rarely painted pupils but always saw souls. 
  Their love—fraught with hardships, shadowed by illness, and sealed by death—was not of this world. And yet, it was in death that they were finally reunited: ten years after Jeanne’s suicide, her family allowed her to be buried beside Amedeo, completing the love story they began in life. 
  This story is not only about tragedy. It is about transcendence. It is about love so radiant, so all-consuming, it becomes eternal. 
  To all who have ever loved deeply, and lost deeply—this story is for you.

  Can Austin learn to love the opposite who attracts him? 
   
   
   
  Austin Russell doesn't belong at a small school like Glynn Harber. He's meant to be a highflyer in finance, not a book-keeping bursar. Now there's only one renovation project left to budget, it's time he toughened his soft heart and got back to climbing the corporate ladder. 
   
   
   
  The truth is he'd rather climb Maisie Dymond's father. 
   
   
   
  That urge doesn't add up—Dom Dymond is his polar opposite—but when a near-miss brings them together, Austin discovers there's more below his laid-back surface, especially as Dom's determined to win the bid for the school's last rebuilding project. 
   
   
   
  Working in proximity means Austin can't deny that they're opposites who don't only attract, they combust whenever they're close. Telling himself it's only a fling doesn't ring true when Dom opens up about what keeps him in Cornwall. He's there to heal his fractured family, and he wants Austin as part of it. 
   
   
   
  That openness makes Austin want to share too, but will Dom still feel the same attraction once he knows what drives Austin to keep climbing his ladder? 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.
