La Linea (eBook, ePUB)

Miguel has dreamed of joining his parents in California since the day they left him behind in Mexico six years, eleven months, and twelve days ago. On the morning of his fifteenth birthday, Miguel's wait is over. Or so he thinks. The trip north to the border-la línea-is fraught with dangers. Thieves. Border guards. And a grueling, two-day trek across the desert. It would be hard enough to survive alone. But it's almost impossible with his tagalong sister in tow. Their money gone and their hopes nearly dashed, Miguel and his sister have no choice but to hop the infamous mata gente as it races toward the border. As they cling to the roof of the speeding train, they hold onto each other, and to their dreams. But they quickly learn that you can't always count on dreams-even the ones that come true.Latino Interest.

Ride Baby Ride: Thompson & Sons, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 283min

Small town mechanic Gage Jenick has been waiting for this moment ever since his best friend's little sister transformed from annoying tagalong to desirable woman. When sweet Katy Thompson kicks her boyfriend to the curb, Gage makes his move. In spite of an assignment that will take him completely off the grid for five long months, he steals her away for one night of steamy passion with the promise of more in the future. When a freak accident on a storm-swept road leaves Katy with a memory full of holes, she can't remember her own email password, much less how the little pink "positive" on the pregnancy stick got there. She's at a loss to explain what happened, or when...or with whom. Suddenly she's got two men claiming to be her baby daddy: her redneck ex, and her long-time crush, Gage. But what the mind forgets, the heart remembers. Still, it's going to be a long, hard ride to a happily-ever-after for two, plus one. This book was previously published as Baby, Be Mine. ungekürzt.

Ivy Takes Care , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 176min

After her best friend, Annie, leaves for a fancy camp in New Hampshire, Ivy can’t imagine how she’s going to endure the long, hot Nevada summer with no one around but that pain-in-the-neck Billy Joe Butterworth next door and all those melancholy visitors to the Red Star Guest Ranch. Happily, an answer comes to Ivy in a flash of honey-colored topaz, and she cleverly hires herself out to take care of people’s farm animals or pets while they’re away. So begins a summer of discovery for tenderhearted but sensible Ivy, who must win over the stubborn pony Chestnut, take on the challenge of training a puppy named Inca, and patiently court the trust of the magnificent but scarred racehorse Andromeda. All this while tending to her own private hurts and hopes and managing the hapless tagalong Billy Joe, who has a knack for trouble and accidents like nobody else! Celebrated writer Rosemary Wells delivers a compassionately observed and exquisitely distilled novel set in the midcentury Southwest about a young heroine with an exceptional gift, a heart of gold, and a budding dream for her future. ungekürzt.

L.A. Rex: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 708min

As far as everyone in the squad room knows, Ben Halloran is completely fresh to the streets of the 77th Division - just a soft kid from the West Side who's decided to become a cop and happened to draw the hardest neighborhood in LA.But demons from Ben's complicated past catch up with him and his tough, oddly principled Daryl Gates-era partner, Miguel Marquez, all too quickly. From the moment Ben and Marquez hit the streets together, they're pulled into a web of ultra-violent corruption and retribution. They meet hardcore Crip gangbangers and tagalong gangsta-rap gloryhounds, LA's Mexican Mafia, sleazy celebrity defense attorneys, and dirty cops with distinctly self-serving definitions of law enforcement. Ben is forced to choose among father figures and apparent destinies while trying to obey his own moral principles - as well as his desperate animal instinct to stay alive.Author Will Beall is a Los Angeles police officer who has spent almost his entire career on the streets of South Central, much of it in antigang units. The audiobook bristles with the energy and authenticity of his experience. But the true revelation of L.A. Rex is that Will Beall can write. His brilliant, fearless prose simultaneously evokes Richard Price and James Ellroy. The result is an explosive thriller that takes us deep into a city that's further from Hollywood than we can imagine, a city that no other writer has managed to capture with this kind of hard-earned insight and intensity. ungekürzt.

Shock Tactics (The Arsenal, #9) (eBook, ePUB)

Riley Mason grew up as a tagalong tomboy. Her six older brothers were her silent, overprotective shadows-whether she wanted them to be or not. When they left to serve their country, life without them was terrifying and lonely. Now that they're home and settled into their new path to protect others, she's vowed to do the same. Armed with a private investigator's license, two mysterious former assassins as partners, and the infamous Mason gut for all-things-trouble, she's ready to kick ass and take names. Her brothers may have an army of commandos at the ready, but so does she thanks to the fearless women who run The Arsenal. She once failed to see the troubles brewing in her former best friend and almost died as a result. She won't let anyone in the Tri-County suffer injustice ever again. If there's trouble in her backyard, she'll find it and make someone pay. There's only one broody badass standing in her way-a man she can't help but be drawn to. He was once best friend to two of her brothers before he went to prison for crimes he didn't commit. He may think he can avoid her, but he has no idea how stubborn the youngest of the Mason brood can be. He's about to find out. Dominic DeMarco wants nothing more than to settle into a normal life and forget about his failures. He may have done time for murders he didn't do, but the sins he did commit still haunt him every day. He didn't protect his family when he should have. Now that he's out, nothing matters except them. His new life at The Arsenal should be simple enough: fix up the rides, help organize the construction crew, and keep out of everyone's way. Too bad no one sent that plan to the youngest hellion. The vixen refuses to leave him be. She's started a war he didn't want-one he's about to win if she doesn't back down. A man can only resist temptation for so long. Their carefully constructed plans implode when they are tossed into deadly situation that'll require them to work together. They didn't declare this unexpected war but they'll do whatever it takes to win.
