The Winds of Fortune series is a follow on from the 9 novel More Heat Than the Sun M/M Romance thriller series. Please listen those books before you start on this!! Book 1- The Gods of Chaos and Chance Most people in Aleksey Rider-Mikkelsen's life would probably assert that at fifty honest living and sobriety were long overdue. But recovering in bed from the lingering after-effects of his leg injury, bored, in pain, and feeling entirely irrelevant, Aleksey doesn't much care what Benjamin Rider-Mikkelsen thinks. He doesn't appreciate the close monitoring either. Fortunately for Aleksey, therefore, the devil reliably makes mischief for idle hands with too much money. No one said he wasn't allowed to buy an island, did they? Of course, he's not planning to do anything nefarious in his new kingdom, but equally, Aleksey doesn't expect such a thoughtless purchase to plunge them both into a nightmare of old allegiances that puts all his new promises to Ben to the ultimate test. Book 2- The Paths Less Travelled One day, Aleksey's life will be calm and peaceful. He's almost looking forward to it. But this isn't yet that day. However, always on guard, always prepared for mischief conjured by the gods of chaos and chance, even he couldn't have predicted that it would be Ben's work with homeless veterans that would plunge them into a terrifying situation where the stakes are not just their lives, but the fate of the entire world. A cryptic message from a strange old man sets them on a path from which, good or bad, none of them will ever be the same again. Book 3- The Meaning of Storms When Aleksey lived in the shadows at the heart of the British Royal Family, he assumed he was the cuckoo in the nest, the one living a double life. He had no idea that he was surrounded by deceits even more deadly than his own. But now, buying Light Island has unearthed a long-buried secret so important that people are willing to kill for it.
