    An ancient door provides the portal to a man's past, offering him two opportunities: Return to 1984 to halt the bizarre accident that took his fiancee's life and retrieve a mysterious orb. Without intervention, the orb and its powers will be seized by evildoers. For Trevor, the risks are high, but the rewards are immeasurable. Twenty-nine years later, Trevor still grieves for his fiancee killed by a hit-and-run driver the day before their wedding. That void can be filled. The choice is his. But can Trevor change the past? An old German who informs Trevor that Janet's death was planned, also provides clues relating to the orb that dangled from her neck on the day she died. Those powers emanating from the orb, perpetuate time travel. Trevor's mission is to return to 1984 to prevent the tragedy that took his fiancee's life, and to keep the orb from the clutches of evildoers. The fate of the world lies in Trevor's hands. If he refuses the old German's proposal, the necklace will be seized by madmen whose goal is world domination and, ultimately, the control of the universe. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    It's been twelve years since I've seen him. Twelve years since he won our war of wits by outsmarting me with a tactic I didn't even know was allowed. But tonight…I resurrect the battle. Ryan Henderson is back in town for our best friends' wedding, and I plan on showing him exactly how much I don't care about him-or the almost kiss he ruthlessly dangled over me after graduation. A lot has changed since our feuding days. I'm a successful bakery owner now, and I plan to rub every delicious detail of my life in his ugly face. Just one problem: his face is gorgeous. He wasn't supposed to look like this or pursue me like a sexy guided missile. I must stay strong until the wedding is over and Ryan scurries back into whatever alternate universe he escaped from. His interest in me is nothing but a continuation of the games we played in high school...right? But the longer he stays, the more I wonder if I'm wrong and his tender smile and heated attentions are genuine. Maybe it's not a game. Ha! Who am I kidding? This is Ryan we're talking about. Of course it's a game. A game called war. And this time, I will win. The Enemy is a sweet romance, perfect for readers who love lots of sizzle but no explicit content.

    Cassie's words dangled in the air like an invitation, warm and welcome. He couldn't likely bring her home without a simple kiss, now, could he? When their eyes met, Shane tilted his head, asking for permission with the lift of his brow. She nodded slightly - a silent response - yet the best thing he'd heard in weeks - Yes. Twenty-four-year-old Cassie Lovell has a great job, good friends, and an apartment with a killer view. That is, until life is turned upside down. Without the chance to say goodbye, Cassie is forced into a witness protection program on Emerson Ranch. Just when she fears life is doomed, Cassie meets Shane Emerson, the stunningly handsome cowboy who'll be posing as her newlywed groom. Shane Emerson is determined not to fall for the woman he's agreed to harbor. Especially since the whole thing was his family's way of trying to get him hitched. So why is it when he takes Cassie into his home, Shane wants nothing more than to turn their make-believe marriage into more than just a sham? In a moment of weakness, Shane steals a kiss. In return, Cassie steals his heart. Yet before they confess their undying love, a hidden danger threatens to tear them apart. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lesley Ann Fogle.

    From the national best-selling author of Jeweled Fire. In the latest novel in Sharon Shinn's Elemental Blessings series, a woman is confronted with the past she left behind - and an uncertain future. Leah Frothen has returned home to rebuild the life she's avoided for years. But she can scarcely catch her breath before she is summoned to meet with the regent, Darien Serlast, the man who made her a spy. Leah is reluctant to take on a new assignment, but Darien has dangled the perfect lure to draw her in. Leah finds she enjoys the challenges of opening a shop catering to foreign visitors, especially since it affords her the opportunity to get to know Mally, the child she abandoned five years ago. Leah is simultaneously thrilled, terrified, hopeful, moved, and almost undone as she slowly attempts to become part of her daughter's life. But when the regent asks her to spy on ambassadors from a visiting nation, she develops a dangerous friendship with a foreign woman and finds herself falling in love with a man from her past. Soon Leah learns that everyone - her regent, her lover, and even her daughter - has secrets that could save the nation, but might very well break her heart. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The sound of metal against cement echoing throughout the basement was an eerie sound, especially when I knew what was causing the noise. As the sound came closer to me, I knew it was her. She walked over to a hanging lamp from the ceiling and switched it on. The brightness in my eyes caused me to have blurry vision and temporary blindness and my eyes had to adjust for a minute or two. When they did, it probably would have been better if my eyes were still blurry. Standing in front of me was the statuesque body of a woman with long black wavy hair, blue eyes, legs that wouldn't quit and breasts that were perched upon top of a leather corset. Her waist was cinched and her hips were round. She had an hourglass figure. She had a whip that was round in a circle on a clasp on her corset that dangled. If I blinked my eyes a little and while they were focusing, she was a reminiscing figure of a childhood hero that I had once admired, Wonder Woman. But, this woman was not here for good. No, she was here to cause pain and torture to me, at any cost. The woman was my wife. Yes, most husbands have a loving wife, but mine was scorned. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Candy Kross.

    From the New York Times-best-selling author of The Jane Austen Book Club, the story of an American family, middle class in middle America, ordinary in every way but one. But that exception is the beating heart of this extraordinary novel. Meet the Cooke family: Mother and Dad, brother Lowell, sister Fern, and our narrator, Rosemary, who begins her story in the middle. She has her reasons. "I spent the first eighteen years of my life defined by this one fact: that I was raised with a chimpanzee," she tells us. "It's never going to be the first thing I share with someone. I tell you Fern was a chimp and already you aren't thinking of her as my sister. But until Fern's expulsion, I'd scarcely known a moment alone. She was my twin, my funhouse mirror, my whirlwind other half, and I loved her as a sister." Rosemary was not yet six when Fern was removed. Over the years, she's managed to block a lot of memories. She's smart, vulnerable, innocent, and culpable. With some guile, she guides us through the darkness, penetrating secrets and unearthing memories, leading us deeper into the mystery she has dangled before us from the start. Stripping off the protective masks that have hidden truths too painful to acknowledge, in the end, "Rosemary" truly is for remembrance. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Orlagh Cassidy.

    The mad emperor, warrior descendant of the ravagers of Asia, unleashed a new, horrible, ingenious weapon against the American people. While slant-eyed Mongols bent over a powerful death machine, about 1,000 miles away, the air became unbreathable! Men and women and children - all living things - gasped for life-giving oxygen, and with searing, heaving lungs, fell strangled by the mysterious, deadly element. Against these demoniacal hordes, one man alone - Operator #5 - struggles while red revolt and destruction blasts America! Jimmy Christopher was the star of the most audacious pulp magazine ever conceived. Jimmy belonged to the clean-cut, square-jaw, clear-eyed breed of hero made popular by the FBI back in those grim days. He carried a Colt automatic and wore a flexible rapier concealed in the hollow of his leather belt. A gold skull ornament dangled from a vest-pocket watch chain. It contained a fast-acting poison in case of capture by enemy agents. Jimmy Christopher played a very dangerous game, of which he was a past master. Working for Agent Z-7, head of an unnamed branch of US intelligence in the decade before the CIA was ever envisioned, Operator #5 was assisted by newspaperman Diane Elliott, a two-fisted street kid named Tim Donovan, as well as his twin sister, Nan Donovan. Jimmy's father, a retired operative himself, often backed him up with sound advice on the fine art of counter-espionage. Into this unprecedented crisis plunged Jimmy Christopher. Only one man, but a man who embodied the American spirit - and stands prepared to perish to protect his country. "The Green Death Mists" is read with a stirring intensity by Milton Bagby. Originally published in the November 1934 issue of Operator #5 magazine. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Milton Bagby.

    National Outdoor Book Award Winner for Outdoor Literature From the award-winning, bestselling author of Cod-the irresistible story of the science, history, art, and culture of the least efficient way to catch a fish. Fly fishing, historian Mark Kurlansky has found, is a battle of wits, fly fisher vs. fish-and the fly fisher does not always (or often) win. The targets-salmon, trout, and char; and for some, bass, tarpon, tuna, bonefish, and even marlin-are highly intelligent, athletic animals. The allure, Kurlansky learns, is that fly fishing makes catching a fish as difficult as possible. The flies can be beautiful and intricate, some made with over two dozen pieces of feather and fur; the cast is a matter of grace and rhythm, with different casts and rods yielding varying results. Kurlansky is known for his deep dives into specific subjects, from cod to oysters to salt. But he spent his boyhood days on the shore of a shallow pond. Here, where tiny fish weaved under a rocky waterfall, he first tied string to a branch, dangled a worm into the water, and unleashed his passion for fishing. Since then, his love of the sport has led him around the world's countries, coasts, and rivers-from the wilds of Alaska to Basque country, from Ireland and Norway to Russia and Japan. And, in true Kurlansky fashion, he absorbed every fact, detail, and anecdote along the way. The Unreasonable Virtue of Fly Fishing marries Kurlansky's signature wide-ranging reach with a subject that has captivated him for a lifetime-combining history, craft, and personal memoir to show readers, devotees of the sport or not, the necessity of experiencing nature's balm first-hand.

    If you look up British in the dictionary... A-list celebrity Jamie Jaymeson's name would be next to it. Along with charming, witty, man-whore, and a lot of other adjectives that he wouldn't appreciate being attached to his name. He has everything in the world going for him. Until fate decides his number's finally up. Caught in a compromising position that really wasn't his fault to begin with (really it wasn't), Jaymeson's been told by his agent to lay low in the one town he swore he'd never return to - the seventh circle of hell, known by its residents as Seaside, Oregon. Two months? He can do anything for two months. Especially if it means getting a part in the new book-to-movie series that has girls all over the world swooning. Play nice? Keep it in his pants? Please. He played an alien once - he was going to totally rock it. Until a certain someone who he may or may not have publicly humiliated, rejected, then humiliated again suddenly pops up next door. Self-control has a way of flying out the window when the one girl you can't have is suddenly dangled right in front of you. But Priscilla isn't just off limits - she's a pastor's daughter and barely legal to boot. So Jaymeson does the one thing he swore he'd never do - he tries to be friends. With a woman. Only it's exactly what he needs. Until suddenly he craves more. He wants to date her. She wants to date someone else. He wants to kiss her. She asks him to give her lessons for her new boyfriend. When opposites attract, sometimes the only option you have is to leap - and trust the fact that when you fall - that special someone falls too. Cover by P. S. Cover Designs ungekürzt.
