Falling for the Bad Boy: Bedtime Reads, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 383min
Welcome to Kennedy Fox Bedtime Reads! Steamy love stories you can listen to in one sitting! After everyone goes to bed for the night, snuggle up with a Kennedy Fox Bedtime Read! These are fast-paced, full-length standalone novels that are filled with humor and insta-lust, but still have everything you love about a Kennedy Fox book. Never trust a man who answers the front door wearing nothing more than a pair of low-cut jeans and a panty-melting smirk. That should've been my first sign. I write about guys just like him for a living - sexy and charming, yet reluctant to get into a serious relationship. His body screams sex appeal, but his condescending personality makes him a classic f--kboy. And I want nothing to do with that. Writing romance novels comes with its perks - traveling, meeting new people, creating characters from the voices in my head - but Ethan Rochester enters my life and rearranges all my preconceived notions about writing what inspires you. One week is all it took. One week to realize that not everything is as it seems. One week with the bad boy, and I wanted more. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: CJ Bloom, Joe Arden.

Shitty Bosses and Asshole Employees: Don't Read This Book! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 300min
The long and short of it: I. Loved. This. It’s insightful, useful, funny, and incredibly easy to relate to. The audience is distanced in the intro and then pulled into the fold in a unique and engaging way. I love the “tough-love” approach; this audiobook takes a hard, honest look at what people can do to change, what best practices and methods are, and what a toxic work environment looks like. Importantly, it refuses to let the listener bypass recognizing their own flaws and weak points, but it also doesn’t make the listener feel alienated or judged for not being perfect.Gold nuggets of wisdom are liberally sprinkled throughout, and I wanted to scoop up every single one because:I really came to like and be engaged with the author’s voice and personaI genuinely felt I was learning life lessons in a way that wasn’t condescending, pretentious, or tedious.The "personal story" touch followed by the psychological breakdown (with examples and questions, no less!) is a really awesome way to get the listener really thinking, processing, and engaged. This audiobook creates space for the listener to feel “in it together” with the author and results in the listener doubling-down on the effort to understand and retain the message. ungekürzt.

No Experience Required: A Summer Rains Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 573min
After leaving the hippie commune she grew up on, Summer Rains set a modest goal for herself: earn enough money to live a normal life in the real world. Maybe she was aiming too high. When she wished she could get rid of the platinum-selling pop star who was stalking her, she didn't mean 'get rid of' in the permanent sense. But someone did. And being a suspect isn't the kind of attention she wants from the gorgeous-but-entirely-too-condescending detective investigating the case. As if that wasn't bad enough, her only help comes from the man she's been in love with since her hormones kicked in...and his beautiful girlfriend. Sounds like a good time to reassess her goals. 'Living a normal life' moves down the list, and 'figuring out who the real murderer is before she gets thrown in jail' moves all the way to the top.But crime-fighting wasn't part of the home-schooling curriculum back on the commune. So solving the case is an on-the-job kind of thing. Along the way, she learns other skills--how to fold hospital corners, how to keep herself from becoming the next victim, and how to deal with all the insanity of the 'real world'. ungekürzt.

Michael Morpurgo: War Child to War Horse , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 517min
Michael Morpurgo is a national treasure. With books such as Private Peaceful, Kensuke’s Kingdom, and The Wreck of the Zanzibar, he has enchanted a whole generation of children, weaving stories for them in a way that is neither contrived nor condescending. His is a rare gift. In 2007, Michael’s novel War Horse was adapted for the stage by the National Theatre. Five years on, it continues to play to packed audiences of all ages, and has been turned into a blockbuster film by Steven Spielberg, propelling Morpurgo to household-name status. Michael’s own story is as strange and surprising as any he has written, and is shot through with the same thread of sadness found in almost all his work. How did this supremely un-bookish boy, who dreamed of becoming an army officer, become a best-selling author and children’s laureate instead? What personal price has he paid for success? And why, amidst his triumphs, is he now haunted by regret?In a unique collaboration, Maggie Fergusson explores Michael Morpurgo’s life through seven biographical chapters, to which he responds with seven autobiographical stories of his own. The portrait that emerges is one of light and shade: the light very bright, the shade complex and often painful. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stephen Thorne.

The Dam Situation: Dam Rodents Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 218min
Dam Rodents: The Dam Situation is the first book in a new series of hilarious sci-fi/fantasy novels starring a cast of quirky characters charged with saving the world from total destruction. It all starts at the Suwanee High Institute of Technology (SHIT), where Richard Johnson, a.k.a. Prick, informs his lab partner, Skunky, that he's given up on developing Richard's Vitamin Extract. So Skunky leaves the condescending Prick to his fancy electromagnetism and continues working on the beverage. Fast forward: Prick - now much older - has seen his life spiral downward. And with no help from his grossly incompetent lawyer, Becky, he's sentenced to hard labor at the Suwanee Dam. There, the contentious crew gathers: There's Prick, arrogance fully intact, and the gerbil Peaty, who can't get no respect. There's also Becky and her fellow beaver friend, Janelle. Then Skunky, now the rich and famous inventor of Skunky Brew, appears, accompanied by the fierce female feline Kitty. Believing he's the chosen one, Prick issues his instructions. The gang is to retrieve six pieces of a meteorite that have scattered to different earthlike planets. They'll have to work together, or it's mission impossible - and the end of the world forever! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mikael Naramore.

Bossman (eBook, ePUB)
#1 on the New York Times#1 on Wall Street Journal The first time I met Chase Parker, I didn't exactly make a good impression. I was hiding in the bathroom hallway of a restaurant, leaving a message for my best friend to save me from my awful date. He overheard and told me I was a bitch, then proceeded to offer me some dating advice. So I told him to mind his own damn business-his own tall, gorgeous, full-of-himself damn business-and went back to my miserable date. When he walked by my table, he smirked, and I watched his arrogant, sexy ass walk back to his date. I couldn't help but sneak hidden glances at the condescending jerk on the other side of the room. Of course, he caught me on more than one occasion, and winked. When the gorgeous stranger and his equally hot date suddenly appeared at our table, I thought he was going to rat me out. But instead, he pretended we knew each other and joined us-telling elaborate, embarrassing stories about our fake childhood. My date suddenly went from boring to bizarrely exciting. When it was over and we parted ways, I thought about him more than I would ever admit, even though I knew I'd never see him again. I mean, what were the chances I'd run into him again in a city with eight million people? Then again… What were the chances a month later he'd wind up being my new sexy boss?- Shop: buecher
