Museum of Thieves , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 407min
Welcome to the tyrannical city of Jewel, where impatience is a sin and boldness is a crime. Goldie Roth has lived in Jewel all her life. Like every child in the city, she wears a silver guardchain and is forced to obey the dreaded Blessed Guardians. She has never done anything by herself and won’t be allowed out on the streets unchained until Separation Day. When Separation Day is canceled, Goldie, who has always been both impatient and bold, runs away, risking not only her own life but also the lives of those she has left behind. In the chaos that follows, she is lured to the mysterious Museum of Dunt, where she meets the boy Toadspit and discovers terrible secrets. Only the cunning mind of a thief can understand the museum’s strange, shifting rooms. Fortunately, Goldie has a talent for thieving. Which is just as well, because the leader of the Blessed Guardians has his own plans for the museum - plans that threaten the lives of everyone Goldie loves. And it will take a daring thief to stop him.... Museum of Thieves is a thrilling tale of destiny and danger, and of a courageous girl who has never been allowed to grow up - until now. ungekürzt.

A Woman Overwhelmed: Finding God in the Messes of Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 195min
A woman overwhelmed is a phrase with which many women can relate. But what would happen if we could see the insanity in our pace and embrace our overwhelming God? There is a reason they say that a woman's work is never done - because it isn't! As women, we often are overwhelmed by the demands and circumstances of life, resulting in stress, fear, worry, impatience, fatigue, frustration, and even depression. The truth is that we were created to be overwhelmed...not by life but by God! When we learn to be overwhelmed by God, the fruit in our lives goes from rotten to fragrant - filling our days with peace, hope, love, and joy. In A Woman Overwhelmed, best-selling author Hayley DiMarco shares biblical insights and personal stories to offer a glimpse at the comedy of an overwhelmed life while encouraging us to discover the depths and heights of God's love and power. Be empowered to find freedom in becoming overwhelmed with who God is - by learning to focus on what we know about God so that we can hold on to faith even when it seems that all is lost. For it is when an overwhelmed woman gives up the mission of me and exchanges it for the mission of God that being overwhelmed becomes a good thing. Choose to bask in the abundance of the Father instead of the abundance of life as his unfathomable depths can surely replace our fathomable messes. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Talulla Rising , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 844min
When I change I change fast. The moon drags the whatever-it-is up from the earth, and it goes through me with crazy wriggling impatience.... I’m twisted, torn, churned, throttled - then rushed through a blind chicane into ludicrous power.... A heel settles. A last canine hurries through. A shoulder blade pops. The woman is a werewolf.The woman is Talulla Demetriou. She’s grieving for her werewolf lover, Jake, whose violent death has left her alone with her own sublime monstrousness. On the run, pursued by the hunters of WOCOP (World Organisation for the Control of Occult Phenomena), she must find a place to give birth to Jake’s child in secret.The birth, under a full moon at a remote Alaska lodge, leaves Talulla ravaged, but with her infant son in her arms she believes the worst is over - until the windows crash in, and she discovers that the worst has only just begun....What follows throws Talulla into a race against time to save both herself and her child as she faces down the new, psychotic leader of WOCOP, a cabal of blood-drinking religious fanatics, and (rumor has it) the oldest living vampire. Harnessing the same audacious imagination and dark humor, the same depths of horror and sympathy, the same full-tilt narrative energy with which he crafted his acclaimed novel The Last Werewolf, Glen Duncan now gives us a heroine like no other, the definitive 21st-century female of the species. ungekürzt.

Why NLP Isn't Working for You , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 72min
Have you tried Neuro-linguistic programming, only to discover that it wasn't working the way you intended? Did you drop a ton of cash on some kind of fancy program or guru training that only left you with more questions than answers? Are you growing frustrated or impatience with your practice of NLP, wondering what the problem is? Well with the help of Why NLP Isn't Working for You, you have all the tools and techniques needed to troubleshoot what the problem is! You can learn the real definition of NLP, understand the deep psychological factors that go into a successful technique, and learn how your own reaction to your thoughts, beliefs, and ideas might actually end up holding you back from doing NLP right. We often come into these things with our preconceived notions and ideas of how things should work, and when we hit some kind of trouble, we can throw our hands up in frustration and give up. The truth is that there are a lot of different people out there who are selling their own version of NLP, but it might not be rooted in reality. With this book, you will learn how to identify authentic coaches, how to get past the obvious amount of fraud, and how to look within your own self and identify the things that are holding you back, allowing you to unleash your NLP potential. ungekürzt.

The Unbraiding of Anna Brown: Lone Star Love, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 229min
Anna wanted a job but was unprepared for the emotional labor she would endure when she convinced Carter to hire her to keep house and mind his small son after the death of his wife. She discovers that the gentle, teasing demeanor she'd witnessed from the cowboy previously has been buried along with his wife, forcing her to contend with the glowering, ill-tempered man who snaps at her and doesn't notice or appreciate her earnest efforts. She quietly suffers his apathy and impatience until a single snub pushes her to her breaking point, causing her to take drastic action to get his attention. Carter didn't expect such behavior from this sweet, innocent girl. It startles him out of his stupor long enough to feel his palm itching to connect with her naughty backside. He finds himself slowly drawn out of his grief and depression thanks to the gutsy but kind female presence in his life. Anna discovers that the return of the cowboy's awareness and ability to care means he is on to her penchant for danger and recklessness, and he's not having it. She finds herself getting the bare-bottomed spanking of her life, and feels loved by a man for the first time. Then he abruptly ends her employment. Anna flees, devastated and confused, and Carter knows he must straighten out the situation before he can claim this infuriating and enchanting woman as his wife. ungekürzt. Language: English.
