About this listen
The only thing worse than not loving another person is to love and not being loved in return.
Mr. and Mrs. MacGillivray,” A fierce looking woman stood across from a middle aged couple. Off to the side sat a little boy, arms crossed over his chest and with a bloody nose. “This is the third time since the last harvest that yer son has skelped another laddie from the clan.”
She kicked a pebble away and looked at them sadly. “If he disnae start shaping up, we will need to take mair action as he is causing a disruption amongst the clan. And sending him away from the fields every time as punishment slows down oor work.” “The other laddie started it!”
The little boy piped up angrily. “I was only defending myself, why am I the only one tae get punished every time!?” “He will be dealt with, Nicholas.” The woman looked at the boy with his rumpled tunic and ruffled red hair. “Never as badly as I am, though.” He grumbled whilst pouting and slouching unhappily with an audible sigh. “Nicholas,” Mrs. MacGillivray looked at him. “Stand up straight, and we will discuss this when ye get hame.”
“How long will he be sent away from the fields this time?” Mr. MacGillivray asked, taking his wife’s hand in his.
“Until the next full moon. And he is expected to do an apology to the laddie he skelped.” The woman folded her arms and sighed. “It seems a lang time, but yer son did quite a bit of damage to the other laddie. He will have a black eye, do ye ken?”
“And him almost breaking my nose is normal?” Nicholas piped up again frustrated, “Och, ye arenae playing favorites.”
“Nicholas!” His father gave his son a stern look. “Dinnae make things worse for yerself. If ye cannae say anything nice, then dinnae say anything at all.”
“Yer supposed to be on my side,” Nicholas pouted while looking down at his bare feet once more.
“And ye are supposed to honor yer faither and mother.” “Time to go hame, Nicholas,” his mother said a few moments later. Nicholas followed his parents home, sulking all the way across.

Peyton Kennedy quantifies everything in terms of numbers and risk. She looks at a problem and solves it, leaving no piece of the puzzle out. When her young, too-whimsical wife inherits a derelict farmhouse from a distant aunt, Peyton can only see the bottom line. Too much work. Too much money. Time. Energy. Definitely not worth saving. But her wife knows how to get her way, and Peyton finds herself roped into renovations. This...this may be the straw that breaks her marriage's back, and Peyton's worried about how not worried that makes her.

Story
Though Honora Tannach came of age amid the misty moors of the Scottish highlands, where warring clans battled to the death for the future of their wild land, nothing frightens her so much as a lifetime trapped in the castle of her cruel stepfather. She is thrilled when a marriage is arranged to the son of a Scottish laird...until her betrothed is revealed to be Cavan Sinclare. Though the savage warrior once saved her life, Honora knows no one can tame the heart of such a brute, no matter now finely chiseled his features or how enticing his eyes...

Story
A bicycle crashes into me one night, and the next thing I know, I’m a baby? Getting reincarnated in another world populated by humans, demi-humans, and mythical beasts is certainly not the turn I thought my life was going to take. I especially didn’t expect to be carried off by a wolf and given into the care of a one-armed former knight. Now, I’m trying to repay him by rebuilding the family inn and healing his arm with alchemy.

Will Sedgwick can’t believe that after months of searching for his oldest friend, Martin Easterbrook is found hiding in an attic like a Gothic nightmare. Intent on nursing Martin back to health, Will kindly kidnaps him and takes him to the countryside to recover, well away from the world. Martin doesn’t much care where he is or even how he got there. He’s much more concerned that the man he’s loved his entire life is currently waiting on him hand and foot, feeding him soup and making him tea. Martin knows he’s a lost cause, one he doesn’t want Will to waste his life on.
