Tucker arrives at the Iron & Leather clubhouse in a dying pickup with a duffel bag on the seat and his father's warning still ringing in his ears. He has no money, no plan beyond Thursday, and one borrowed connection to a motorcycle club that might give him the one thing the farm never did: a choice.At twenty-two, he knows engines, long workdays, and the shape of duty. He does not know what to do with Big Mike Kowalski. The club's Enforcer is forty-one, scarred, silent, and built l...

He came in to fix a carburetor. Tobias Müller left with an appointment to come back after dark—and no idea what he'd agreed to.The preacher's son has a secret. Under the long sleeves, under the careful politeness, under five years of guilt and prayer—full tattoo sleeves, a chest piece, a back in progress. Every needle session a punishment for thoughts he couldn't stop having. For being gay in a village where his father's word is God's word. For wanting somethin...

Dr. Alex Hoffmann doesn't raise his voice.He doesn't need to.One precise look. One cool hand correcting my grip. One quiet command in that controlled voice — and I forget every clever thing I was going to say.I came to the Alps for my first real job as a veterinary assistant. Three months in a mobile clinic, treating animals on remote mountain farms, proving I'm competent enough to work beside one of the most brilliant large-animal ...

I was lost in the Alps when the storm found me.Then Marcus found me first.My car is dead. My phone has no signal. The blizzard is swallowing the road behind me, and every step into the whiteout feels like a mistake I may not survive.Then he appears through the snow.Marcus is not the kind of man I know how to handle. Rugged. Powerful. Older. Calm in a way that makes the whole mountain seem to obey him. He lives alone in a remote cabin, far fr...

Luca Moretti can't hold still.Stefan Brenner is about to teach him how.Luca came to the Alpine village to learn a real craft. Woodworking. Discipline. Something solid enough to prove he is not the unfinished disaster everyone thinks he is.Then he meets Stefan Brenner.Master woodworker. Village legend. A man carved from patience, cedar, and control.Stefan is older, stern, precise, and completely unimpressed by Luca's ...

Felix Hartmann ist in die Schweizer Alpen gekommen, um Beweise zu sammeln.Als brillanter junger Glaziologe mit einer bedrohten Karriere vertraut Felix auf Messgeräte, Satellitenmodelle und Daten, die stark genug sind, um eine Universitätskommission zu überzeugen. Die Einheimischen warnen ihn, dass mit dem Eis etwas nicht stimmt, doch Felix hat nie an Geschichten geglaubt. Ein Gletscher lebt nicht. Er spricht nicht. Er entscheidet nicht.Matteo Schwarzhorn weiß es besser....

I used to be the man giving orders.On Jed Morrison's ranch, I'm about to learn how to take them.My tech startup is dead. My money is gone. My pride is the only thing I have left — and even that doesn't survive my first week as a ranch hand.I can't saddle a horse.I can't fix a fence.I can't follow instructions without trying to improve them.And Jed Morrison notices everything.He is older, bigge...

Er kam, um einen Vergaser reparieren zu lassen. Tobias Müller ging mit einem Termin für nach Einbruch der Dunkelheit—und keiner Ahnung, was er gerade zugestimmt hatte.Der Pfarrerssohn hat ein Geheimnis. Unter den langen Ärmeln, unter der sorgfältigen Höflichkeit, unter fünf Jahren Schuld und Gebet—volle Tattoo-Ärmel, ein Bruststück, ein Rücken im Entstehen. Jede Nadelsitzung eine Strafe für Gedanken, die er nicht stoppen konnte. Dafür, schwul zu sein in einem D...

Nico Moretti doesn't cook anymore.Klaus Reinhardt is about to change that.Six months ago, Nico was the youngest Michelin-starred pastry chef in Europe.Then he broke.On camera. In the middle of dinner service. In front of his staff, his guests, and eventually the entire internet.Now he has one backpack, no plan, and a shame so heavy he can barely breathe. When he arrives soaked and exhausted at a remote Alpine inn, he...

Felix Hartmann came to the Swiss Alps for proof.A brilliant young glaciologist with a career on the line, Felix trusts instruments, satellite models, and the kind of data that can make a university committee listen. The locals keep warning him that the ice is wrong, but Felix has never believed in stories. A glacier is not a living thing. It does not speak. It does not choose.Matteo Schwarzhorn knows better.Older, silent, and built by the mountain itself, Matteo has...

Tucker erreicht das Clubhaus des Iron & Leather MC in einem sterbenden Pickup, mit einer Reisetasche auf dem Sitz und der Drohung seines Vaters noch im Ohr. Er hat kaum Geld, keinen echten Plan und nur eine geliehene Verbindung zu einem Motorradclub, der ihm vielleicht etwas geben kann, das die Farm ihm nie gelassen hat: eine Wahl.Mit zweiundzwanzig kennt Tucker Motoren, harte Arbeitstage und das Gewicht von Pflicht. Was er nicht kennt, ist Big Mike Kowalski. Der Enforcer des Clubs...

Zwei rivalisierende Motorradclub-Präsidenten. Eine gefährliche Grenze. Ein Verlangen, das einen Krieg auslösen kann.Jax "Saint" St. Clair hält den Iron & Leather MC seit zwei Jahren von einem offenen Krieg mit den Black Dogs ab. Er kontrolliert seinen Club mit eiserner Hand und weiß genau, wen er da vor sich hat: Der neue Präsident der Black Dogs ist rücksichtslos, unberechenbar und viel zu gefährlich, um ihn zu unterschätzen.Dante Moretti sollte nur eine Z...
