Happiness like glass

Fortune favors the bold: a dramatic and thrilling tale of fate set against the glittering backdrop of the opera world. Michaela's marriage to opera star Peer Varenthin has been on the rocks for some time. To her husband, Michaela now seems to be nothing more than a personal assistant and decorative presence at receptions. On top of that, she frequently clashes with Peer’s agent, Rainer Pahnke, especially when she catches him once again falsifying the accounts. In a bid to finally have a calm conversation with her husband, Michaela books a trip on a cruise ship. However, she has underestimated Rainer Pahnke, who has secretly arranged two performances for the great opera star Peer on the ship and is also on board. He has another surprise in store: the incredibly attractive soprano Antonella Sebaldi, who is set to perform alongside Peer. When Michaela accidentally discovers that she is pregnant, Peer puts her in an impossible position. Annette Landgraf skillfully immerses readers in the world of opera stars with heartfelt emotion and loving details. Her cinematic writing style brings places and characters to life, making it hard to put the novel down as Michaela's fate takes more than one dramatic turn.
