Sweet Nothings: A Sugar Springs Novel, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 627min
Joanie Bigbee, cupcake baker extraordinaire, likes to keep her options open - and she's good at it. She's started and sold some 30 businesses in her postage stamp-sized Tennessee town, and at the moment she can be found in a short skirt and go-go boots, selling cupcakes out of the back of a converted Volkswagen van. What she moves on to next is anybody's guess. She knows better than to be tied down. In any way. She's watched every woman in her family fall head-over-heels, only to find herself wondering how to pick up the pieces when love is lost. When Nick Dalton shows up at the groovy cupcakery, all Joanie wants is a taste; a fling with no strings suits her just fine. For Nick, a bite is not enough; he wants the whole cake: a big house, a family, true love. But love only makes you stupid, right? Joanie has to decide whether to follow where her free-spirit leads…or hold on to the sweetest thing she's ever known. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Natalie Ross.

More than Just Friends , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 200min, (USK 18)
Girl next door Joanie Scott left Charleston to carve out a life as a New York fashion designer, but she can't seem to keep fantasies of her childhood sweetheart, Peter Thompson, from stealing into her everyday life. Whether she's on the phone or sketching new designs for an upcoming fashion show, sensually explicit thoughts arouse more than just her imagination. As if living in New York City isn't exciting enough, Jake Roberts arrives on the scene, and Joanie's life erupts into a series of opportunities, not only in the field of fashion, but in the field of love. Jake seems like the perfect man: smart, sensitive, dashingly handsome, and rich. A perfect gentleman, he woos her with his manners and works magic with her in the bedroom. But new prospects bring close encounters, some of which are "too hot to handle", and Joanie discovers that love can be thorny, and innocence is not always bliss. ungekürzt. Language: English.
