    Charlotte and Chris are finally getting hitched. They have been living together for a while, so Charlotte doesn't really see the big deal about finalizing everything. Her best friend almost seems more excited than she is. After a beautiful ceremony and a fun reception with their friends and family, Charlotte and Chris sneak off to consummate their marriage. Despite her adventurous past, there is one thing that she and Chris haven't shared. She had no idea that he was going to make her wedding night so special. Warning: This audiobook contains very explicit sex including bride anal sex, wedding night anal sex, first time anal sex, and more. Only mature adults who won't find graphic sexual content offensive should listen to this story. Here is a preview: "Want to dance?" I asked him softly as the flute music filled the room. He stood and helped me up gallantly. As we made our way to the dance floor, everyone clapped for us newlyweds. He swung me around in a circle to show me off and then clasped me close. I could feel the warm solidness of his thick muscular frame and I wound my arms around his neck. Our first dance was slow and sweet and perfect. When that song ended, the rest of the group joined us on the small wooden dance floor and the music slid into more of a club sound. Pretty soon, Chris had me pulled tightly against his body and was digging his fingers into my ass as my hips gyrated against his swelling cock. "Linen doesn't hide much," I giggled. He shook his head, "It will be an interesting exit." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ruby Rivers. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/079272/bk_acx0_079272_sample.mp3.

    The long-awaited autobiography of one of Britain’s best-loved actors.Born the son of a Billingsgate market porter at the height of the Second World War, David Jason spent his early life dodging bombs and bullies, both with impish good timing. Giving up on an unloved career as an electrician, he turned his attention to acting and soon, through a natural talent for making people laugh, found himself working with the leading lights of British comedy in the 1960s and '70s: Eric Idle, Michael Palin, Bob Monkhouse and Ronnie Barker. Barker would become a mentor to David, leading to hugely successful stints in Porridge and Open All Hours. It wasn’t until 1981, kitted out with a sheepskin jacket, a flat cap, and a clapped-out Reliant Regal, that David found the part that would capture the nation’s hearts: the beloved Derek ‘Del Boy’ Trotter in Only Fools and Horses. Never a one-trick pony, he had an award-winning spell as TV’s favourite detective Jack Frost, took a country jaunt as Pop Larkin in the Darling Buds of May, and even voiced a crime-fighting cartoon rodent in the much-loved children’s show Danger Mouse. But life hasn't all been so easy: from missing out on a key role in Dad’s Army to nearly drowning in a freak diving accident, David has had his fair share of ups and downs, and has lost some of his nearest and dearest along the way. David’s is a touching, funny and warm-hearted story, which charts the course of his incredible five decades at the top of the entertainment business. He's been a shopkeeper and a detective inspector, a crime-fighter and a market trader, and he ain't finished yet. As Del Boy would say, it's all cushty. With an introduction narrated by David himself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Fenton Stevens. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/rhuk/001619/bk_rhuk_001619_sample.mp3.

    Volume 4: The men in Eve’s class reached underneath their seats and pulled out the guide book. Jake then took the floor. "As my beautiful wife introduced me, I am Jake. I am proud to be a submissive and cuckold husband. There is a misconception of becoming a cuckold. Some people think it’s a sign of weakness. But, for me, it’s a sign of strength. I take pride in my submissiveness. I work as a CEO in multi-million dollar corporation. Every day I have to make decisions that affect my company, our clients, and my employees. I’m the boss of over 2,000 employees. I tell people what to do every day. When I come home and I am away from the office, I hate making decisions or being the boss. That is why I leave all the decisions for our home, sex, marriage, and personal life, up to my gorgeous wife, Eve." Jake sipped some water and continued. "Most men, like myself, feel awkward with what is expected from them in the beginning. When you begin this journey with your wife, not to mention her lovers, you want to please your wife and her lovers. I didn’t have much guidance, I did a lot of research online and joined online groups of other cuckolds to get more of a grasp on exactly what being a cuckold entailed." Jake then held up his guide book, "I created this guide book for all cuckolds, just starting out or ones who have been doing it for a while." Jake opened the book and flipped through some pages. "Inside, you will find terminology, tips, stories, and a lot of information I have put together for you. Take it home, read it, and if you have any questions at all, come back to next week’s meeting and I will answer all that I can. Thank you and have a good evening." Everyone clapped. ungekürzt.

    Teaching the visitors about the holiday stars is fun...until a man who burns brighter than the sun enters Vixen’s orbit.Vixen chooses life with astronomy, and she ends up as an educator and a researcher for a tiny observatory struggling to make ends meet. When Vi arrives, she makes an impression and takes over most of the day-to-day operations, which is fine until an elf comes calling.Xander has been sent to bring Vixen home, but he doesn’t know how he will go about convincing her that it is a good idea, until he asks her out and she tells him what she wants.Magic and wonder are the hallmarks of Christmas, and these two have it in spades.Excerpt:Violette smiled and addressed the assembled donors in the observatory. “We are very lucky to have gained this position, and it is your donations that keep us discovering new phenomenon.”The crowd of donors clapped politely, and Dr. Violette Xenic inclined her head with a smile.A deep voice boomed out from the rear of those assembled. “Dr. Xenic, what is the newest discovery from the Arbin Observatory?”Violette smiled and grabbed her remote, dimming the lights and triggering the projectors. The auditorium lit up with a map of the stars. Just a tiny slice of the heavens, and it was a view that Vi never got tired of looking at.“The Cor-Tin-Xen meteor was discovered here, and it will be skidding close enough to fill the skies with bright sparks as we approach the holiday season. On December twenty-second, we will be in the full glory of the shower, and it was this observatory that found the incoming wonder.”The same man moved forward and raised one very elegant brow. “Wonder? Glory? You are not speaking like a scientist, Doctor.”“When you stop looking to the skies and feeling wonder, you may as well be in a coma. If this can’t touch you, nothing can.” She felt her cheeks heat.The crowd chuckled at her, and the servers began to ci ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Daniela Acitelli.

    Dancing Suite to Suite Dancing Suite to Suite is the fruition of the search for roots musical and genealogical. I first set foot on my ancestral land of Norway in July 1998. Landing in Oslo, I was greeted by my cousin Jens Moe who whisked me straight away to Telemark to meet the hardangerfele player Tarjei Romtveit at his bucolic home in Vijne where we fiddled for most of the afternoon. Lodgings were in a hytte with a sod roof by a rolling stream in Mjonoy where we resumed the fiddlefest the following day. I had been yearning for a hardangerfele lesson since my childhood, intrigued by the intricately inlaid Norwegian violin with five sympathetically vibrating strings underneath the bridge. Tarjei taught me his favorite tunes, which I preserved on DAT tape for future practice sessions. Jens and I searched for Noekken and other trolls during our midnight hikes in the rustic forest. After several days in Oslo, I made the pilgrimage to the family island near Kragero where I met more cousins, and slept in the same bed as my great uncle Tillman Breiseth had years ago while on vacation from teaching Ibsen at the University of Oslo. I gathered enough Nordic inspiration for the trek to Denmark where I was engaged to play several solo violin recitals at Klint, a community which gathers each summer to study the writings of the Danish cosmologist Martinus. I played the concerts at Klint for an enthusiastic audience. After the second concert, Ole Saxe invited me to jam with him on drums and piano on any evening after dinner, but I was far too interested in hiking along the coast of Nykoebing Sjaelland at midnight. So our musicmaking did not begin until I received the gift of the score Salsa for Karen in September 1998. The notes leapt off the page, demanding idiomatic interpretation. I learned the gem in a week and it quickly became a staple of my repertoire as an encore, or by adding Nigerian clay pot (udu) played by Ian Dogole during our duo recitals. I was elated to have such a dynamic piece in my arsenal. Following the suggestions of a friend, I requested an entire suite from Ole Saxe based on the model established by Johann Sebastian Bach: multinational dances related by key comprising an organic whole. Within several weeks Jig for Alan appeared as a gif file on my computer. Then followed the Ziga Dance, Rhumba de la Luna, Redhaired Tango, and finally the Flamenco Alojera, all composed by the end of March 2000. These dances reflect Ole's background in folk themes and rhythms and are vivacious and intoxicating to practice and perform. We finally premiered the Dance Suite in it's entirety in Palo Alto, California on December 8, 2000 at 8:45 pm, following a performance of Bach's D minor Partita. Ole was present for the premiere and the subsequent performance at Anna and Frank Pope's ballroom in San Francisco. We were further encouraged by a grant from the Community Foundation of Silicon Valley as well as Maestro Eric Kujawsky requesting Ole to orchestrate the Dance Suite for a performance with the Redwood Symphony in April 2002. On October 23 and 24, 2001 we recorded Dancing Suite to Suite at Skywalker Ranch. We added Odd Bakkerud's epic hardangerfele tune Fanitullen as a spice to this recording which celebrates the joy released by the chance encounters that led to this Swedish American collaboration. It is purported in Scandinavian mythology that a fiddler must spend time in the water to achieve excellence and inspiration. The cover photo represents a fiddler seated on a rock in a stream at the base of Mount Shasta, absorbing fluidity and virtuosity from Noekken the water spirit. Karen Bentley Dance Suite for Solo Violin, by Ole Pullar Saxe Salsa for Karen, dedicated to my special violin muse, is the origin of the whole suite. From a concert in Klint in Denmark, where Karen played part of the Sibelius Violin Concerto, as well as the Flight of the Bumblebee by Rimsky-Korsakov, came the idea to write a salsa, especially for Karen. I understood that it would be possible to catch both rhythm and spirit in the salsa music through her capacity, and felt a certain excitement building up inside. We never talked about this at the time, but later I suggested the idea by email, and received the reply 'Go for it!' From this point musical scores went to and fro between Sweden and San Francisco, and the suite came to life. The Afro-Cuban music is very much my musical identity. In our world music band Mondo Muziko we often play both salsa and Afro music for multicultural dancing. This is music for joy and togetherness that crosses borders and limitations, and offers a generous and warm experience of love. Salsa music moves your feet and hips and it was not until my 40-year crisis made me buy a drum set that I fully found this joy as a musician. Flamenco Alojera emanates from a strange recognition of the Spanish temperament and culture within me. Maybe the contrasts in the dramatic mountain view over the little village Alojera, on the Canarian island Gomera, is similar to the ups and downs of this music. So the music was formed after a holiday in the Gomeran mountains. Another association is from a period of my life where I lived in a flat in Stockholm, with an American blues singer Eric Bibb and his Spanish wife Magalida in the flat below, and a Spanish flamenco singer Rogelio in the flat above. So the music was all around, and the rhythm of the flamenco clapped and tapped through the floor with the heartbreaking improvisations of Rogelio's voice on top and Eric's below, shaping my dreams at night and growing seeds of hot passion and mellow blues into my cool Scandinavian blood. Often when I play some lyric Scandinavian folk music, I suddenly find the music changing into burning Spanish rhythms and scales. Where did this Spanish blood come from? Ziga dance is dedicated to my Bosnian friends Enes Ziga (folk musician) and his wife, Elsa Ziga (folk dancer). Enes has a beautiful voice and can sing mellow ballads from the Balkans all night. These folk songs are influenced by Arabic scales, and the 7-beat rhythm is common in this music. We have made several concerts together (one at the Siljan festival) where the audience would dance in a circle, the Swedes trying to get their hambo, and polska feet to catch up with the elegant Bosnian dancers. Sometimes beautiful belly dancers from Iraq would join the musicians on stage (very difficult for musicians to concentrate on playing though). The light theme is inspired by a Macedonian folksong. This fusion of international music and dance in the Leksand community has meant a lot for the integration of 150 Bosnian refugees in our little Swedish society during the period of war in Yugoslavia. Jig for Alan is dedicated to my father in law, half British, quarter Scottish and quarter Irish, with a deep interest in music. The Jig is inspired by a magical evening in Danish Skagen. Landing with our little sailing boat on a nice summer evening after sailing all day from Gothenborg, Sweden, we went to a music bar, Visekrogen, to see if some Danish folksingers were on stage. To our surprise it was an Irish evening, with an Irish singer and his band of banjo, violin and pennywhistles. Being the first long trip for Alan in a time of deep personal crisis due to serious illness in near family, this was like paradise. The jigs and reels moved faster and higher and the Danish beer moved down in the warm, family-like atmosphere. This was the climax of a wonderful sailing holiday between Sweden and Denmark that even musically took us way out west to the greens of Ireland. Redhaired Tango emanates from a childhood memory of a school dance in the huge school auditorium. I was eight years old, deeply in love with the redhaired girl in the class. Gathering courage, it took several hours before I dared go across the endless floor to ask her for a dance. She said 'Yes'. And guess what the band played? TANGO! My dance lessons had not reached beyond valse and ji
