    Big promotion, complete with $300 pen? Check. A hot man who cuddles, spends the night and makes breakfast? Check. Waiting for the other shoe to fall? Check. "If it feels too good to be true, it probably is." Five years of obsessing over her career pays off when Melanie Gordon gets a promotion that could make or break her. But the new job takes her back to her hometown to face the family she's distanced herself from, and forces her to leave behind sexy, mysterious philanthropist Raine Mason, who just might be the man of her dreams. By the time Raine makes his move with Melanie, her one-way ticket to Cleveland is booked. He convinces her to take a chance on him long-distance, but can't yet trust her with the whole truth about himself. Raine and Melanie slowly peel back each other's layers (starting with his bicep-hugging sweater). She is finally ready to give her heart to him...until she learns the dark secret of his past. He'll have to prove to her that love is worth the risk. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Angela Starling. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/harl/001450/bk_harl_001450_sample.mp3.

    And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. Genesis 5:29 Enoch, The great Enoch, born into a world as a stranger, taken out of time to the Caelestis Concilium where he learned all the secrets of creation: the parallel dimensions, parallel worlds, and multitude of universes which make up the multiverse along with all of the races and beings that exist within them. An immortal existence surrounded by the Angelus and a millennia of knowledge, all that ever was and all that ever could be, distanced him from the humanity he was born with and he traveled through creation without purpose or empathy. Ultimately, his loss of humanity and inability to empathize caused a disastrous string of events in various universes and forced the Angelus to put him on trial for his involvement and imprison him. Tempestas Viator is the story of Enoch the Traveler, and of how he finds Violette, who changes the Caelestis Concilium’s ruling and leads him on a journey through the worlds and dimensions of the Multiverse to rediscover that which he has lost. ungekürzt.

    Kat transformed in front of him. Her chin came up, her fingers stopped twitching with the fabric of her gown, and a real sparkle bubbled in her eyes. It was like watching Snow White come to life when the prince kissed her. A heartwarming WWII historical from award-winning author Cara Putman: Kat Miller has dreamed of playing baseball her entire life. When she earns a spot on a team in the All-American Girls Professional Softball League, she finds that things aren’t as glamorous as she imagined. She struggles with long road trips, grueling practices, and older teammates who are jealous of her success. And to top it all off, an irritating reporter is constantly getting under Kat’s skin. Events in Jack Raymond’s career have left him cynical and distanced from God. He never wanted to write at a small paper, and he certainly didn’t want to be assigned to something as inconsequential as a women’s softball team. Then Kat walks into his life. The fiery, young softball player somehow climbs the walls around his heart and makes him want to hope again. When lies fly and the league appears to fail, will Kat and Jack’s new love survive? ungekürzt.

    The long and short of it: I. Loved. This. It’s insightful, useful, funny, and incredibly easy to relate to. The audience is distanced in the intro and then pulled into the fold in a unique and engaging way. I love the “tough-love” approach; this audiobook takes a hard, honest look at what people can do to change, what best practices and methods are, and what a toxic work environment looks like. Importantly, it refuses to let the listener bypass recognizing their own flaws and weak points, but it also doesn’t make the listener feel alienated or judged for not being perfect.Gold nuggets of wisdom are liberally sprinkled throughout, and I wanted to scoop up every single one because:I really came to like and be engaged with the author’s voice and personaI genuinely felt I was learning life lessons in a way that wasn’t condescending, pretentious, or tedious.The "personal story" touch followed by the psychological breakdown (with examples and questions, no less!) is a really awesome way to get the listener really thinking, processing, and engaged. This audiobook creates space for the listener to feel “in it together” with the author and results in the listener doubling-down on the effort to understand and retain the message. ungekürzt.

    What would you do if you knew a child who was being abused? If that child was a member of your family? Would you call the authorities and have the child taken away, or would you turn a blind eye? These are the kind of questions that Lost in Thought provokes. The author, who lived through the atrocities mentioned in this audiobook, paints a vivid if disturbing image of child abuse and how it affects the psyche as one grows older. What begins as abuse leads quickly to suicidal thoughts and loss of control.Lost in Thought is the unbelievable true story of a child who was in this predicament. His mother, who was hooked on prescription pills, sexually abused him for years and convinced him that nothing was out of the ordinary. Family members knew of the horrifying situation yet did nothing to stop it. He distanced himself from his family as he grew older only to become more of an outcast.This is the powerful true story of a man who was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome on the autism spectrum in his mid-20s, overcame adversity, and took back control of his life before it was too late. ungekürzt.

Now, two years later, she sees her daughter’s face in every blonde girl she passes - at the grocery store, in car windows, at the doctor’s office. She is determined to find her daughter, but her commitment borders on obsession as she finds herself following these little girls who resemble her missing daughter. Her inability to move on after Emma’s kidnapping has distanced Megan from her friends and family.

Meanwhile, in the same small town, Jack dotes on his granddaughter, Emmie, but has begun to question his wife, Dottie’s, secrecy about Emmie and her mother, Mary.

    Emma Lee Abingdon lived the happy life of a debutante until the murder of her parents shattered the world she knew. With a murderer on the loose, staying in her house wouldn't be safe, and the sheriff recommended that she hide out until the perpetrator is caught. Garrison Gray was the best gunman in Texas and proved his skill by shooting the hat off the next man who entered the saloon. The mayor didn't appreciate the drunken gesture, nor did he enjoy losing his hat. As a result, Garrison found himself arrested for reckless behavior and sentenced to hard labor. When the sheriff pairs Emma Lee and Garrison for the Freedom Bride program, sparks fly and not in a good way. Grieving and torn from a life of comfort, Emma Lee had to adjust to a new way of living. Full of scorn for the wealthy, Garrison distanced himself from the woman he must protect. Can they find a way to set aside their differences and open their hearts to love? This is the third novelette of the new Texas Wildflowers series by best-selling authors Leah Atwood and Susette Williams. It can be heard as a standalone. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Viele Menschen glauben an die Seele, aber die wissenschaftliche Theologie hat zu ihr ein distanziertes Verhältnis. Stand der Seelenbegriff über Jahrhunderte im Mittelpunkt christlichen Denkens, ist er vor allem im Laufe des 20. Jahrhunderts in die Kritik geraten. Für die Seelsorge, die explizit auf die Seele rekurriert, liegt darin ein Problem. Durch die Skepsis gegenüber der Seelenvorstellung ist nicht nur unklar geworden, was der Gegenstand der Seelsorge ist. Auch wurde dadurch die theologische Sprachfähigkeit in der Praxis herausgefordert, insbesondere in der Trauerbegleitung. Diese Studie fragt deshalb im interdisziplinären Gespräch danach, wie der Seelenbegriff unter gegenwärtigen geistesgeschichtlichen Bedingungen für die Seelsorge (re-)plausibilisiert werden kann.[The Future of the Soul. A Poimenic Rereading of the Concept of the Soul]Many people believe in the soul, though scientific theology has a distanced relationship towards it. While the concept of the soul has been at the centre of Christian thought for centuries, it has come under critique especially over the course of the 20th century. This poses a problem for pastoral care, which explicitly refers to the soul. Scepticism about the concept of the soul has not only obscured what the object of pastoral care is, but also challenged the capacity of theological language in practice, especially in grief counselling. This study thus asks, within an interdisciplinary framework, how the concept of the soul can be made plausible (again) for pastoral care under the contemporary conditions of our intellectual history.

    When Kel Taylor’s life changes irrevocably, he finds himself alone in the world. He might have rebelled a little against his parents, but that didn’t mean he was ready to lose them. Unable to cope with his grief and feelings of guilt, he turns to booze, but before he hits rock bottom, someone dives into the murky waters to save him. Luc Bryant watched Kel grow from the little kid whose football broke a pane in his greenhouse, into the sexy young man who sent heat racing through him. That was when Luc stopped watching and distanced himself, because he didn’t want to be that kind of a man. And that’s how things continued, until he saw to what depths the boy had sunk. Luc will be damned if he’ll let Kel kill himself. What Kel needs is a friend, and Luc’s shoulders are plenty big enough to bear his burdens. Kel doesn’t need a friend. He needs a pair of strong arms to hold him, a broad chest to curl up against, someone to listen to him, someone who cares for him...and a whole lot more.What he needs is a daddy.He just doesn’t know it yet. A stand-alone book that contains an age gap relationship between a sexy daddy and a virgin. ungekürzt.
