The Necromancer's Smile 2: A Family Affair , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 362min
Necromancer Sy York and former detective alpha wolf Dakar Rhodes are slowly learning to merge their lives together as true mates. With the steadfast Brock and loyal Brad as well as Connor and Clive all sharing the estate with them, for the first time in his life, Sy feels as though he has a family around him. But just as Sy starts to get used to his new life, an uninvited guest to his party brings trouble to the family group. Sy's father has been scheming in the background for 10 years and arrives complete with Sy's new bride. Just as Sy remembers from when he was growing up, his father flatly refuses to accept Sy and Dakar's mating, and an angrily thrown power ball is just the start of the couple's problems. To add mayhem to a volatile situation, Dakar isn't handling the threat to his mating very well. Dakar knew Sy was more powerful than him from the moment they met and has told himself a dozen times a day it didn't matter. But a person's inner thoughts have a way of exposing themselves, especially when magic users are involved. Angry and frustrated, Dakar lashes out - could this be the end of his and Sy's mating before it even has time to settle down? Ghostly grandfathers, scheming family members, new mates, and a meddling mother-in-law; this audiobook has it all. Please note this is the second audiobook in the Necromancer's Smile trilogy. The epilogue in this story is the prelude to audiobook three and starts the thread of a new plotline.

Blessed Margaret of Castello: Holy Innocence, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 26min
Patron of the unwanted.A baby is born. There is a hush in the town and on the mountain top in anticipation of the new little lord, as if time is standing still waiting for the signal to rejoice! Lady Emilia went into labor. The candle bearers were ready to brighten the castle, symbolizing the light that had come into their lives. The serfs stood ready to ring the bells!The baby was born, but there were no lights. No bells tolled, and only deadly silence prevailed. A baby girl was born; that was one blow. The infant was rejected immediately by her parents; she was not only a girl, she was deformed! She was not a pretty baby; if her parents were to believed, she was ugly. She would never reach full height, they determined, as she already showed signs of being (as her parents later told her) a midget! Her right leg was shorter than the other, and so, they knew she would be lame, as well. Believing God had punished them, one week later, they discovered they had not seen the total chastisement; the child was blind! What a disgrace, they thought!The word went out that the baby was very sick and was not expected to live! As it was impossible to keep them from becoming aware what had transpired, the serfs and soldiers in the fortress were told that this was not something to be broadcast. As Parisio was known for the merciless cruelties inflicted on those who disobeyed him or got in his way, it was fairly fait accompli that no one would know of the little girl who had come into this cruel world, and cruel it would turn out to be, making this reaction and subsequent action a kind one in comparison.The local parish priest Father Cappellano insisted the baby be baptized! And as was the custom of that time, the baby had to be baptized in the cathedral, and he faced very stubborn opposition; Parisio flatly refused. But when his wife reasoned with him, he reluctantly agreed - on one condition: Lady Emilia's maid would bring the baby girl and ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bob Lord, Penny Lord.
