Bad Business: A Bad Boy Romance Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 73min, (USK 18)
“Ease up on the make-up, Brenda,” I said, turning my face away. “That’s way too much mascara.”Brenda gently turned my face back to hers. “Will you be still before you make me mess up?”“Are you sure you know what you’re doing?” I asked. I was trying to sit really still but it was hard. I wanted to see what I looked like. I never wore much make-up. I guess I never really needed it. Guys seemed to flock to me anyway without it. I hoped it would be that way this time, too.“Of course I know what I’m doing,” Brenda snapped. “I did Kari’s make-up the last time. And she wasn’t complaining.”I chuckled. “Ok. Ok. I’m sorry. I just don’t want to look like a tramp or something. And I definitely don’t want this guy getting ideas and pawing all over me.”She put the finishing touches on the mascara and stepped back to admire her handiwork. "Damn I’m good," she exclaimed, clapping her hands. "You look hot, mama.""Great,” I said with a frown. Just what I didn’t need. “Can I look now?”Brenda turned the chair so that I was facing the mirror. I barely recognized myself. Wow. I was...hot! “Whatcha think...?”I slowly reached up and touched my cheek, careful not to ruin her hard work. “I like it,” I said softly. “But I can’t go out looking like this. I’m just trying to get the mark to notice me. That’s all.”She grinned. “Oh he’s going to notice you alright.”I grimaced. “I don’t need that kind of attention. I just need to get close enough to get the intel we need to bring him down. I’m not interested in attracting him.”Brenda closed up her make-up kit. “Whatever it takes to get inside,” she said. Her gaze dropped to the manila envelope on the table in front of me and she picked it up. “Damn. He’s hot!” She whistled softly as she scanned his picture. “Dang. I almost wish I’d signed up for the job.”I took the folder from her and scanned the picture of the mark. He was....Warning: This audiob ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Theresa Stephens.

The good news is that you have just awakened into Eternal Life. You are going to live forever. Immortality is a reality. A medical miracle? Not exactly.

The bail-out is on the utilities menu. You pull it down...The bad news is that it doesn't work. Someone has blocked the bail-out option. And you know who did it. You did. The other you. The real you.

Dispatches from the Pacific: The World War II Reporting of Robert L. Sherrod , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 513min
In the fall of 1943, armed with only his notebooks and pencils, Time and Life correspondent Robert L. Sherrod leapt from the safety of a landing craft and waded through neck-deep water and a hail of bullets to reach the shores of the Tarawa atoll with the US Marine Corps. Living shoulder to shoulder with the marines, Sherrod chronicled combat and the marines' day-to-day struggles as they leapfrogged across the Central Pacific, battling the Japanese on Tarawa, Saipan, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. While the marines courageously and doggedly confronted an enemy that at times seemed invincible, those left behind on the American home front desperately scanned Sherrod's columns for news of their loved ones. After Sherrod's death in 1994, the Washington Post heralded his reporting as "some of the most vivid accounts of men at war ever produced by an American journalist." Now, for the first time, Ray E. Boomhower tells Sherrod's story in this intimate account of the Pacific front war efforts. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joe Barrett.

Mr Bliss , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 43min
A brand new edition of the long unavailable children’s story, written by the author of The Hobbit and Letters from Father Christmas, with newly scanned manuscript pages and redesigned text. Now available as a downloadable audio edition. Professor J.R.R. Tolkien invented and illustrated the book of Mr Bliss’s adventures for his own children when they were very young. This is a complete and highly imaginative tale of eccentricity. Mr Bliss, a man notable for his immensely tall hats and for the girabbit in his garden, takes the whimsical decision to buy a motor car. But his first drive to visit friends quickly becomes a catalogue of disasters. Some of these could be blamed on Mr Bliss’s style of driving, but even he could not anticipate being hijacked by three bears. As for what happened next – the listeners, whether young or old, will want to discover for themselves. Thankfully all ended well, and even the yellow motor car with red wheels (to which Mr Bliss has taken an understandable and great dislike), came in useful at the end. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Rocked: Black Light Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 418min
They had unfinished business. She went there for closure, but he deserved his revenge. They both learned to be careful what you wish for. When Samantha Stone hears that the popular rock band Crushing Stones, created by her childhood sweetheart, is headlining at a new dance club nearby, she considers it fate. She’s waited seven years to get answers. Why had he deserted her without even saying good-bye? Jonah “Cash” Carter has scanned the throngs of fans for years looking for her. Waiting. When he spots Sami in the crowd, he freezes mid-song. He’d named his band for a reason, and tonight would be the night he finally got to crush a Stone. Too many secrets. Too much history. Can they find their way to the truth without destroying each other? Author’s Note: Black Light: Rocked is a steamy bad-boy rocker romance with an HEA. It is meant for mature audiences only. It has explicit sexual situations as well as BDSM power-exchange elements that may not be suitable for all listeners. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kai Kennicott, Wen Ross.

Meditation : A Complete Meditation Guide to Happiness, Stress Relief, Mindfulness, and Finding Peace Within , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 68min
According to Aristotle, people can choose to be happy. A new study shows that it is possible for you to grow a happier brain physically using practices such as meditation. Science has already determined the hormones that give rise to emotions like desire or pleasure, but no one has been able to say for sure where feelings of well-being and overall contentment come from. Kyoto University scientists set out to get the answer. They gathered 51 volunteers and asked each one of them to rate their own levels of happiness. They then scanned the brains of the volunteers to try to see if there were any differences between the glum individuals and the upbeat ones. Surprisingly, the happier people had a larger precuneus (an area of the brain). This means that you can work happiness like a muscle. Some studies in the past have shown that it is possible to boost gray matter in your precuneus with regular meditation. This explains why meditators experience feelings of bliss and even general contentment. The scientist who oversaw this study said that medics could now measure the things that increase happiness in people. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Wright.
