Jonathan Drazen’s my billionaire boss. Or he was, until he fired me. Now he wants to make a bet. If I win, he’ll give me enough money to not care about this waitressing job. If he wins, I’m completely and utterly his for the night. Since a bad breakup, I’ve sworn off men, but I’ll take this wager. He’s hot enough to break some rules over. Besides, he’s still hung up on his ex-wife. There’s no chance he’ll want more after the sun comes up. Just one night, and I walk away from his dark past and his hot demands.

Alone for the first time after being married for twelve years, I never expected four younger men to tempt me with a good time. When I saw them dancing — and stripping — at Club Red, they filled my imagination with all sorts of filthy thoughts. The next morning, they turned up in my backyard as the landscapers I’d hired sight unseen. I’m wildly attracted to the men and their hard, toned bodies, and soon, I find out they’re interested in me, too.

Monica believes Jonathan despite her better judgment. Forgives him despite her doubts. She loves him…just because. Her heart isn't sensible or guarded enough. Not by a sight. She’s a walking raw nerve ending of emotion, as if the celibate years she'd spent before him made her more emotional, more vulnerable, more foolish. And she agreed to all of it yesterday and today.

Monica does not abdicate. She will not resign herself to a man's will…even a man as strong as Jonathan. She's not weak or fragile, nor does she break at the first sign of trouble. Until she realizes she's falling in love with him, and that she’ll never be the same if she allows it. She breaks into a million sharp pieces and damages him in the process. But what can she do? Stay with him and untangle the mess of his life? Commit to his rules, his secrets, his troubles? No. She'll commit to a man, not a lie. She'll strip away everything between them, even if it ends them.

In Goethes Weltanschauung fasste Steiner die Ergebnisse seiner von 1883 bis 1897 sich erstreckenden Studien über Wesen und Bedeutung der naturwissenschaftlichen Schriften Goethes in einer bündigen und zugänglichen Weise zusammen. Steiner sah in Goethe einen wichtigen Vordenker, der in seiner Morphologie als erster eine dem Organischen angemessene Wissenschaftsmethode und damit die theoretischen Grundlagen seiner eigenen Anthroposophie entwickelt hatte.

Within weeks, he discovers she’s moved on with the brother of a famous network TV actor.

I can’t risk falling in love. My soul is too fragile. Love isn’t guaranteed. It’s always a gamble. And I know, better than most, that it’s not worth the fall. The body can only withstand so many tragedies before it ceases to exist. Only one person has made me want more. Only one. Yet I know it would break me to lose him, and he’d be impossible to recover from. The loss—devastating.

Innerhalb der intellektuellen Entwicklung Steiners nimmt seine Schrift über die Mystik von 1901 - zusammen mit der Zwillingsschrift "Das Christentum als mystische Tatsache" eine zentrale Stellung ein. Sie dokumentiert den Übergang des Philosophen Steiner zum Mystiker und Esoteriker und steht somit im Brennpunkt aktueller Forschungskontroversen, etwa um die Kontinuität von Steiners intellektueller Entwicklung, um die "Christlichkeit" der Anthroposophie oder um die Abhängigkeit Steiners von der anglo-indischen Theosophie.
