More or Less a Marchioness (eBook, ePUB)
First in the series featuring the Somerset sisters, three beautiful, headstrong debutantes, in Regency London. "An unconventionally irresistible romance." -RT Book Reviews For the sake of propriety, and her younger sisters' reputations, Iris Somerset has kept her rebellious streak locked away. But though she receives a proposal from Phineas Knight, Lord of Huntington, Iris can't marry a man she knows isn't truly enamored with her. In fact, Iris no longer wants to be chosen-she wants to choose. Under the clandestine tutelage of "wicked widow" Lady Annabel Tallant, she'll learn how to steer her own marriage prospects-and discover her secret appetites . . . What kind of debutante refuses a marquess? Finn is surprised, a little chastened-and thoroughly intrigued. This new, independent version of Iris is far more alluring than the polished socialite she used to be. Finn believed he needed a safe, quiet wife to curb his wilder impulses. But the more Iris surprises him, the more impossible it becomes to resist their deepest desires . . . Praise for the Somerset Sisters series "An enthralling and deeply compelling Regency romance. I was hooked from start to finish." - Ella Quinn, USA Today bestselling author "A slow burn with more implication and anticipation, but the teasing build-up is delightful." -RT Book Reviews (4 Stars)- Shop: buecher

Iconic Advantage: Don't Chase the New, Innovate the Old , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 278min
Modern business gurus all cry for the need to innovate, to disrupt, and to act like a startup. It's hard to argue with that kind of thinking. It's sexy and exciting. But it's wrong.

Iconic Advantage is a different approach that allows companies to leverage what they already have to create lasting differentiation and deeper relationships with their customers. It generates disproportionate levels of profit and protects against market fluctuations. Many of the world's most successful brands have been using it for years. Now, you, too, can benefit from reaching iconic status, whether you're a Fortune 500, a local pizza parlor, or an aspiring unicorn startup. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlie Thurston.

Middlemarch , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1917min
Named for the fictional community in which it is set, Middlemarch is George Eliot's rich and teeming portrait of provincial life in Victorian England. In it, a panoply of complicated characters attempt to carry out their destinies against the various social expectations that accompany their classes and genders. At the center of the narrative is Dorothea Brooke, a thoughtful and idealistic young woman determined to make a difference with her life. Enamored of a man she believes is setting this example, she traps herself into a loveless marriage. Her parallel is Tertius Lydgate, a young doctor from the city whose passionate ambition to spread the new science of medicine is complicated by his love for the wrong woman. Epic in scope and unsurpassed in its study of human nature, Middlemarch is one of the greatest works of world literature. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nadia May.

Women in Love , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1247min
Considered the most widely read novel of the 20th century, D. H. Lawrence's fiery fifth book continues the loves and lives of The Rainbow's Brangwen sisters, Gudrun and Ursula. Gerald Crich, son of a wealthy colliery owner, captures the heart of Gudrun, while Ursula becomes enamored with Rupert Birkin, a school inspector - their complex relationship likely modelled on that between Lawrence, his wife Frieda, and John Middleton Murry and Katherine Mansfield. Things are far from harmonious, and the discord and conflict leads to many heated and elaborate philosophical discussions about modern society and the nature of love, while tragedy looms large. Lawrence held this to be his best book, and F. R. Leavis regarded it to be his most profound and rewarding. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Slack.
