Summary

Inga Svartdal has just been married off to the much older Niels. She quickly realises that Gudrun, Niels' adult daughter from his first marriage, does not intend to relinquish control of the family farm. Inga is forced to bow to the will of her wicked stepdaughter.

It doesn't take long until Niels starts asserting what he believes to be his rights in bed, which causes Inga distress on the nights he spends at home. But where is he on all the other nights?

Everything changes when Martin, a neighbour, appears on the farm. Feelings between Inga and Martin quickly blossom, and even though she's a married woman, Inga cannot stop herself from falling in love.

    Introduce your child to the world of chakras with our 15-in-1 children's audio book collection, focused on the three higher chakras - Throat, Third Eye, and Crown. 
The Throat Chakra is associated with communication, expression, and creativity, while the Third Eye Chakra is associated with intuition, imagination, and spiritual connection. The Crown Chakra represents our connection to the divine and the infinite, as well as our sense of purpose and meaning in life. 
Each book in this collection has been carefully crafted to help children connect with these three chakras in a meaningful way. I will give a fair warning when getting into the intuitive side of the chakras. The Third Eye and Crown Chakra can be intense for beginners. However, even though these chakras can be a deep subject for younger children, it presents a unique opportunity for them to explore their inner world and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them. As with all of our books, we encourage parents to use their own judgment and guidance when exploring these concepts with their children. 
Through these books, your child will learn the value of self-expression and creative freedom, the importance of trusting their inner voice and intuition, and the power of finding meaning and purpose in life. 
So if you're looking for a way to help your child explore the concepts of the higher chakras and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world, look no further than The Intuitive Upper 3 Chakra Pack! 
From Ages 4+

    DOORS THE - How a father's love...

    THE DOORS is a mystical, heart-wrenching, and triumphant journey where the greatest magic is not in the extraordinary, but in the ordinary love that defies all limits—one door at a time. 
It is a spellbinding journey of love, envy, and redemption, where the greatest magic is not in changing the world, but in daring to believe that some bonds are stronger than fate itself. 
In a world where every life is bound by an unseen script—written in celestial ink and unchangeable by mortal hands—destiny is not a promise, but a prison. 
And, envy lurks in the shadows of greatness. 
BUT there is one force even destiny could not foresee - a father’s love.

    In a realm where stars waltzed and dreams materialized, the enigmatic Starlight Garden thrived. This ethereal haven housed Lumina, the Shimmering Sprite; Bramble, the Curious Bunny; and Spark, the Playful Firefly. 
On a radiant night, a gleaming trail streaked across the sky. Lumina, Bramble, and Spark, captivated by its allure, embarked on a journey into the heart of the garden. There, glowing flowers and murmuring trees welcomed them. 
Further in, they encountered mischievous gnome Glimmerkin, entangled in thorns. United, they freed him using Lumina's light and Bramble's dexterity. In gratitude, Glimmerkin offered to lead them to a wish-granting waterfall. 
Challenges abounded – moonbeam bridge, owl riddles. They reached a sparkling waterfall, its water stardust-like. Each wished: Lumina for kindness, Bramble curiosity, Spark perpetual playfulness. 
Astoundingly, the waterfall fulfilled their wishes, infusing their essence. Spirits lifted, they danced under starlight. Glimmerkin, moved, gifted a star-shaped key, unlocking the garden's doors. 
With hearts full and spirits alight, they returned home, having learned that magic resides in kindness, curiosity, and playfulness. Their tale inspired treasures to embrace inner enchantment and the magic around.
