The Wrong Gentleman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 417min
I’m an all-or-nothing man - 100 percent focused on whatever has my attention. First it was serving my country in the Special Forces. Then it was building my business. Right now it’s the hot blonde at the bar who’s about to become another notch on my bedpost.But women never keep my attention for more than a night.Until I peel off Skylar Anderson’s clothes and her mask starts to crumble, showing me glimpses of the girl she’s hiding. She’s funny, sexy, and vulnerable and throws me out of bed before I can catch my breath and suggest breakfast.When I start my last undercover job on a yacht, turns out she’s one of the crew. I try, but I can’t look away.Her high ponytail shows off her kissable neck that tastes like summer.Her short uniform reveals the killer legs that were wrapped around me last night.And her provocative smile? I know what that mouth is capable of.I want to explore her body, discover her secrets, and sail off into the sunset with her.I might want to go all in for Skylar, but she should stay away from me.I’ve got secrets of my own, and they can only bring her trouble. ungekürzt.

The Last Act: A Roald Dahl Short Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 75min
The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of 'The Last Act', a short, sharp, sad story from Roald Dahl, the master of the twist in the tale. Read by the actress Gillian Anderson. In 'The Last Act', Roald Dahl, one of the world’s favourite authors, tells a story of human darkness and frailty. Here, a woman’s reconnection with an old-flame does not go as expected. 'The Last Act' is taken from the short story collection Switch Bitch, which includes three other black comedies that capture the ins and outs, highs and lows of sex. Roald Dahl, the brilliant and world-acclaimed author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, Matilda, and many more classics for children, also wrote scores of short stories for adults. These delightfully disturbing tales have often been filmed and were most recently the inspiration for the West End play Roald Dahl’s Twisted Tales, by Jeremy Dyson. Dahl’s stories continue to make readers and listeners shiver today. Gillian Anderson’s television work includes Scully in The X-Files, Miss Havisham in Great Expectations, and Lady Dedlock in Bleak House. Her film work includes A Cock and Bull Story and The Last King of Scotland. This story is also available as a Penguin audio ebook. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gillian Anderson.

The Sensitive Man , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 143min
By the end of the 21st century, a deep-state human-systems organization, the Psychotechnic Institute, has begun melding neuroscience and psychoanalytics to create the foundation for generations of more peaceful, more powerful, more "sensitive" human beings. In Poul Anderson's 1954 science-fiction thriller, The Sensitive Man, one such human, Simon Dalgetty, is on the trail of brutal men who kidnapped Michael Tighe, keeper of the keys to the Institute's secrets, and, thus, to the fate of world order. In the midst of his pursuit, Simon falls prey to his own carelessness and, trapped by the men he is pursuing, is taken to an island hideout where Tighe is being held. Simon faces torture if he cannot get Tighe to reveal the Institute’s plans. As he contemplates the possibilities for escape, Simon reaches out to Elena Casimir, an enigmatic, possibly problematic adversary allied with Simon’s captors. What does the sensitive man see in Elena that gives him hope not only of escape, but of Tighe’s rescue and the capture of the kingpin responsible for Tighe’s kidnapping? Anderson’s tight plot, breezy dialogue, fascinating scene-setting, political foreshadowing, and well-woven characters, both good and bad, make for a fun, exciting, and future-forward glance at what may lie in store for the world in the century ahead. ungekürzt.

After Eli , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 252min
Jenny Wade (1843–1863): Shot at the Battle of Gettysburg. Mr. Jonas H. Pilcher (1916–2003): Died of emphysema. Bernie the dog (1990–2003): Died of a broken heart. Some people die heroically, others accidentally. Some people die for a cause, while others die from making a single bad choice. When Daniel Anderson’s older brother is killed in Iraq, he wonders which category Eli’s death falls into. To deliberately put himself at such risk, to leave Danny - who always depended on him - Eli must have died heroically, to make the world a better place, right? In an attempt to puzzle out this crushing loss, Danny creates a Book of the Dead - an old binder that he fills with details about dead people, how they died and, most important, for what reason (if any). Then one summer, Danny looks up from his Book of the Dead and notices new things. He discovers that Walter, the brilliant outcast at school, is a good person and great friend. And he can’t help but notice Isabelle, the romantic, utterly different girl from New York City, who has flown into his small rural town on a breath of fresh air. During the long, glorious days and firefly-lit nights he shares with Walter, Isabelle, and Isabelle’s twin siblings, a new world teeming with life and possibility begins to open up before Danny, paving a path that gently guides him forward. ungekürzt.

Killer Riff , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 626min
Glossy-mag advice columnist Molly Forrester has been working her tail off to get recognized as an investigative journalist and has even solved a few murders along the way, but none of that matters to her editor, who’s more than happy to keep Molly tied down to her Dear Abby roots. Thankfully, though, her publisher has taken notice and has a lot more faith: Molly’s been promoted, and her first assignment as a full-time feature writer should be a cinch. It’s a profile of Russell Elliott, the legendary rock manager/producer who just died of an accidental overdose. The rock ’n' roll world is pretty accustomed to seeing its brightest stars burn out early, and jaded as it sounds, no one is shocked by Elliot’s death - no one except his daughter, that is, who is convinced that it was no accident. All Molly has to do to keep her new job, pump up newsstand sales, and win back reluctant beau, NYPD homicide detective Kyle Edwards, is give Elliot a once-over like a devoted fan, without looking too deeply at anything that smacks of murder, like his infamous family, his infighting protégés, or the rumor about his long-lost bootleg tapes. What could be easier for Zeitgeist magazine’s newest star? Almost anything. Smart, sexy, and suspenseful, Killer Riff takes readers on a thrilling tour of New York’s high-stakes music industry and makes for a stylishly entertaining addition to Sheryl J. Anderson’s jazzy Molly Forrester series. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Meghan Kane Haseman. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/005831/bk_adbl_005831_sample.mp3.

New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Melody Anne begins a sizzling and heartfelt series about Joseph Anderson’s long-lost nephews. Hudson Anderson has watched his brothers fall victim to the marriage flu. He wants nothing to do with it. That is until he meets fiery Daisy Green, who shows up on the property he’s just purchased, calling him a thief and insisting the property isn’t his. He should brush her off and move on with his life. But instead, he finds himself intrigued, and he wants to get to know her. The veterans' center Hudson worked on with his brothers for the past couple of years is finished. And now he’s moving on with the next step of his life - building his dream complex, a huge golf course community. When his uncle Joseph connects him with Bubby Green, he should know it doesn’t come without strings, but the deal is too good to pass up. Daisy Green is a warrior when it comes to causes. She wants to save her town, save her people, and save those things others want to tear down. She’s never imagined she might just want to be saved herself. She’s furious when her grandfather sells her family land to a spoiled, rich man who wants to build something only the elite can enjoy. Both Hudson and Daisy think they can change the mind of the other. But maybe, instead of changing one another’s minds, they might be able to meet in the middle and start building something beautiful together. This is the fourth book in the Anderson Billionaires series. Come and enjoy the family dynamic of the Andersons with characters you’ll fall in love with, and a romance we all strive to achieve. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Teri Clark Linden.

A Walk on the Beach: Tales of Wisdom from an Unconventional Woman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 298min
Shortly after arriving on Cape Cod to spend a year by herself, Joan Anderson’s chance encounter with a wise, playful, and astonishing woman helped her usher in the transformations and self-discoveries that led to her ongoing renewal. First glimpsed as a slender figure on a fogged-in beach, Joan Erikson was not only a friend and confidante when one was most needed, but also a guide as Anderson stretched and grew into her unfinished self. Joan Erikson was perhaps best known for her collaboration with her husband, Erik, a pioneering psychoanalyst and noted author. After Erik’s death, she wrote several books extending their theory of the stages of life to reflect her understanding of aging as she neared ninety-five. But her wisdom was best taught through their friendship; as she sat with Anderson, weaving tapestries of their lives with brightly colored yarn and exploring the strength gathered from their accumulated experiences, Joan Erikson’s lessons took shape on their small cardboard looms as well as in her friend’s revitalized life. In writing about their extraordinary friendship, Anderson reveals a need she didn’t know she had: for a mentor to help navigate the transitions she faced as she grew beyond middle age. And when Joan Erikson had to face her husband’s death and the growing limitations of her own body, Anderson was able to give back some of the wisdom she had gleaned. To this poignant and ultimately joyful account, Joan Anderson brings the candor and sensitivity that have made her an acclaimed speaker and writer on midlife and its possibilities. A Walk on the Beach is an experience to savor and treasure, a glimpse of the exuberant spirit that can be sustained and passed on in all our friendships. ungekürzt. Language: English.
