The Road to Wherever

A middle grade road novel about a boy stuck on a summer trip with his offbeat auto-mechanic cousins-a humor- and heart-filled journey that leads the boy to an unexpected confrontation with some broken-down parts of himself. After eleven-year-old June Ball's dad disappears without so much as a goodbye note, June's mother sends him on the road with his adult cousins, mechanics Thomas and Cornell Ball. The Balls are "Ford Men"; their calling in life is to restore old Ford cars-and only Ford cars-that no longer run. And so begins a summer traveling the highways and byways of America, encountering busted-up Fairlanes, Thunderbirds, and Rancheros. They also encounter the cars' owners, who sometimes need fixing up, too. June doesn't understand his cousins' passion for all things Ford. But at every turn, June realizes that this journey is about more than giving neglected classic cars some much-needed TLC-there's room to care for the broken parts of humans, too. A story of adventure, longing, and growing up from adult novelist, journalist, and All-SEC center for the LSU Tigers, John Ed Bradley.

Giants & Heroes: A Daughter's Memories of Y.A. Tittle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 518min

Football Giant Y. A. Tittle was the most magical and unlikely quarterback hero of the 1960s - the old man performing miracles in a young man game - as he lifted a mediocre New York Giants team to championship level and earned his place in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Dianne Tittle de Laet, an accomplished poet and harpist - who also happens to be the daughter of Y. A. Tittle - has written a life of the man that, unlike any other football book, is at its heart a father/daughter story. Assembled in the manner of a scrapbook of memories, family lore, and photographs, Giants & Heroes follows Y. A. through his youth in East Texas, his college days at LSU, and a professional career in which he shattered passing records while playing for the Baltimore Colts, the San Francisco 49ers, and the Giants. As a girl, de Laet was consumed by a passion for the ancient Greeks, their poetry, music, and values, and had little interest in her father's "work". It was only later in life, when she herself became the mother of a teenage football player, that she began to think about the game's mysteries and came to appreciate the courage and special finesse which made her father - "Y. A." - a sports icon. Her journey into the past is at once a rediscovery of a long-gone era - when NFL quarterbacks called their own plays and, during the off-season, sold insurance door-to-door to make ends meet - and a daughter's intimate of her father.... Dianne Tittle de Laet is a poet and harpist. She lives with her husband in Menlo Park, Calif. This is her first published book. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dianne Tittle de Laet.

Redeeming the Amazon: Den of Sin, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 136min

Most come to The Beaudelaire Hotel a select few times a year merely to indulge in sexual fantasy, but the stakes are higher for Karen Freeman and Paul Beaudelaire this New Year's weekend. Karen is nine years post-op from a double mastectomy, and her vain ex-husband hadn't agreed with her decision to remove her remaining good breast or to eschew reconstruction. In the end, that decision cost her. She lost her marriage, but she's certain the move has prolonged her life. Returning to a normal dating and sex life has been difficult. She hasn't made love fully unclothed since the demise of her marriage, and her most significant relationship occurred right after her surgery. When she was still recuperating, she had an affair of the heart with a Marine amputee who'd also been her Ph.D. classmate. Paul Beaudelaire once led a charmed life as a ladies' man who had his pick of women in the upper echelons of New Orleans society. He'd been satisfied to continue in that vein, until a Marine recruiter wooed him from LSU with tales of valor, courage, and commitment. His career in the corps cut short by the loss of his left leg, Paul returned to New Orleans with the best prosthesis Johns Hopkins orthopedics experts could fit him with. The problem was, he'd left his heart in Baltimore with a beautiful former model, whose crippled marriage was the only deterrent to his waning honor. Will this fantasy weekend at his Uncle Henri's hotel give him a second chance with his contemporary Amazon, or will her fear of rejection be a barrier to their reconnection?Other Den of Sin titles:Shamelessly Taken: A Den of Sin Vignette by Mel BlueTwo Strikes: A Den of Sin Vignette by Holley TrentForbidden Rendezvous by Mel BlueMénage à Troys: Book 2 by Holley TrentWicked Surrender: Book 3 by Ambrielle Kirk ungekürzt.
