    The Burnt Toast B&B: A Bluewater Bay Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 382min
    After breaking his arm on set, Wolf's Landing stuntman Ginsberg Sloan finds himself temporarily out of work. Luckily, Bluewater Bay's worst B&B has cheap long-term rates, and Ginsberg's not too proud to take advantage of them. Derrick Richards, a grizzled laid-off logger, inherited the B&B after his parents' untimely deaths. Making beds and cooking sunny-side-up eggs is hardly Derrick's idea of a man's way to make a living, but just as he's decided to shut the place down, Ginsberg shows up on his doorstep, pitiful and soaking wet, and Derrick can hardly send him packing. Not outright, at least. The plan? Carry on the B&B's tradition of terrible customer service and even worse food until the pampered city boy leaves voluntarily. What Derrick doesn't count on, though, is that the lousier he gets at hosting, the more he convinces bored busybody Ginsberg to try to get the B&B back on track. And he definitely doesn't count on the growing attraction between them, or how much more he learns from Ginsberg than how to put out kitchen fires. Bluewater Bay stories can be read or listened to in any order - jump in wherever you'd like! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dorian Bane, Tobias Silversmith.

    Britt-Marie Was Here , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 557min
    For as long as anyone can remember, Britt-Marie has been an acquired taste. It's not that she's judgmental or fussy or difficult - she just expects things to be done in a certain way. A cutlery drawer should be arranged in the right order, for example - forks, knives, then spoons. We're not animals, are we? But behind the passive-aggressive, socially awkward, absurdly pedantic busybody is a woman who has more imagination, bigger dreams and a warmer heart than anyone around her realises. So when Britt-Marie finds herself unemployed, separated from her husband of 20 years, left to fend for herself in the miserable provincial backwater that is Borg - of which the kindest thing one can say is that it has a road going through it - and somehow tasked with running the local football team, she is a little unprepared. But she will learn that life may have more to offer her than she's ever realised, and love might be found in the most unexpected of places. The number-one European best seller by the author of A Man Called Ove, Britt-Marie Was Here is a funny, poignant and uplifting tale of love, community and second chances. ungekürzt.

    A wonderful Christmas gift full of nostalgia and charm, perfect for fans of Coronation Street and listeners who love fiction set in wartime. Elsie Grimshaw lives in one of the worst streets in Weatherfield and is desperate to escape from life at home with a brutal father and the drudgery of working at the local mill. Grabbing at the slim chances that come her way, Elsie goes through the heartbreak of first love and her marriage to bad boy Arnold Tanner at only 16 years old and emerges, if not much older, then certainly wiser. Going under her married name of Elsie Tanner, she and Arnold move in to No. 11 Coronation Street in 1939 as war breaks out. Her cheeky self-confidence immediately puts her at loggerheads with local busybody Ena Sharples and Annie Walker, landlady of the Rovers Return. As Christmas approaches, the residents of Coronation Street must put their petty squabbles aside if they are to survive the worst that Hitler's Luftwaffe can throw at them. And as the Manchester Blitz grips their home town of Weatherfield, the residents must pull together to make this a Christmas to remember - for all of the right reasons.... ungekürzt.

    Her House Divided: Beach Haven, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 239min
    Ethan Davis always knew his grandmother was a busybody, but he never expected her to play matchmaker from beyond the grave. When he learns that she left her beach house to him and a beautiful stranger, he vows to do whatever it takes to keep the family home - even if that means living with a woman he can't allow himself to trust. Tara Bartlett thinks that her luck is finally changing when she inherits part-ownership of a house on the shore of Lake Michigan. She doesn't like the idea of sharing it with the recently-divorced Ethan, but she's too busy dealing with her own troubles to think of him as anything more than a business partner. When a greedy developer wants to steal their beach house right out from under them, they must join together in the fight to save their home, but can they also fight the growing attraction they feel for one another? Welcome to Beach Haven, a tourist town where everyone finds love and no one stays a stranger for long. Each book in this series tells its own tale of romance with a different cast of characters, although a few favorites may stroll through each other's stories from time to time. ungekürzt.

    Leora: Bride of California: American Mail-Order Bride Series, Book 31 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 306min
    Her sister gone, her roommates soon to follow, Leora Mitchell must now face the fact that she, along with the others, are mail-order brides. For years, her life revolved around Brown’s Textile Mill, her sister Lottie, and their friends. Now, as mail-order brides, they’d be scattered across the country, ready to start a new life. The only problem was Leora had no idea what that life looked like, nor did she have any idea who she was without the familiar faces she loved so much. Pastor Theron Drake needed a wife, and the crazy folks in his congregation whole-heartedly agreed. So much so, they thought they should have as much access to the new Mrs. Drake as he did! They volunteered her for everything they could think of and made her the director of the annual Christmas Play. Throw in the town bully/busybody who’d rather have her own choice of a Mrs. Drake, and you have a mail-order bride that doesn’t know if she’s coming or going. Will Theron and Leora’s new marriage survive the onslaught of his over-zealous parishioners? Or will she crack under the pressure, turn tail, and run? Find out in this hilarious romp, how two people are forced to discover their true strengths and weaknesses. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Rahhal.

    Emily Finland - 25, college graduate, hot mess, lover of all things cheese. Hasn’t had a date in a year. Yeah, that’s not something I would put in a dating profile. Ever. In fact, I can’t be bothered to date. There are so many awful guys out there. I much prefer to Netflix and chill with a pizza.But of course, my busybody best friend Charlotte was having none of that. She persuaded me to go on a blind date, and even though I was reluctant, I decided to go. I never expected to meet a man like Liam Montgomery.Liam Montgomery - 40, rich, cocky, wears a Rolex, likes expensive whiskey, completely out of my league. He was not who I would have chosen to have gone on a blind date with. Just because he was gorgeous didn’t mean he would make a good boyfriend. Plus, he was way too old for me.That didn’t stop me from flirting with him, though. Or, from spending one very long, exciting night with him. I’m not going to tell anyone about that night. Ironically, it turned out that Liam hadn’t even been my intended date. Oops!Unfortunately for me, hot mess Emily, the biggest shock of my life was still to come. For, while Liam and I should never have been, he’s not about to leave my life quite that easily. You see, I’m celebrating my dad’s retirement with my folks, and Liam is also there. Only, this time, he’s not alone.  ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Laurie West. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/192031/bk_acx0_192031_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
