Hell's Belles , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 161min
California girl Emma Ayers' life has just been shaken by sudden tragedy. On top of losing everything, she's also been forced to move across the country to Charleston, South Carolina. Emma now lives in the infamous South-of-Broad section of the city, surrounded by old money and even older mystery. It's a universe away from her normal teenage life and not just because of distance. Charleston holds its share of secrets, and Emma seems to be part of the biggest one of all. She just doesn't know it yet. That's where Hell's Belles come in. It's one of the oldest debutante societies in the South, and yet no one knows anything about them, only that you don't mess with a Belle. Living among the mansions and manors of the Holy City, the Belles use their wiles and not a small bit of witchcraft to achieve their every mysterious ambition. Their world and the old aristocratic rules they live by are about to collide with Emma's mundane and doleful life. Emma has always felt there was nothing extraordinary about her. What happens to a girl who finds out there's more to everything than she ever could have imagined? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rebecca Schwab.

Fun Love with Food: A Cross Cultural Celebration of Food, Fantasy and Other Erotic Obsessions , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 780min, (USK 18)
Growing up in New York, Anais Alexandre was always known as a culinary prodigy and was certain she’d become one of the best chefs the world had ever known. But life dealt her a different hand, and she was unable to pursue her dream of attending culinary school after finishing high school. Now a beautiful, hip, and sexy 23-year-old newly minted social worker, she accepts a job in an emergency shelter for girls and continues to indulge in her passion for cooking by moonlighting as a romantic caterer. But at some point her two worlds begin to converge - her life becomes an amalgamation of unbelievably provocative and often erotically compromising encounters in both jobs on a regular basis. Taking us from the eclectic cliffside manors hidden in clandestine enclaves that offer illuminating views of Pittsburgh’s picturesque three rivers to the sensuous sunsets of San Francisco Bay and the romantic elegance of Paris, Anais’ alluring and often erotic culinary adventures serve as a welcoming contrast to the breathtaking stories and immensely painful encounters she witnesses in the girls’ shelter. Sultry, funny, mysterious, and intimately stimulating, the alluring adventures and captivating cuisine will surely keep you hungry for more. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Beggar Magic , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 364min
In Gelia City, magic is music: a constant ever-changing melody known as the strains. Hereditary ability to use the strains divides the city into two classes: the wealthy Highmost, who can access the full potential of the strains, and the common tradesmen, who are limited to mundane spells, known as beggar magic. With the help of the strains, common teen Leilani rescues and befriends a gifted Highmost girl, Zebedy. The girls' friendship opens Leilani's eyes to the world of the Highmost. She's intrigued by Zeb's close relationship with the strains, and longs to know them as she does. Zeb, in turn, comes to depend on Leilani's strength and intelligence, making them an inseparable team, ready to take on anything with the strains at their back. As their unlikely friendship strengthens and endures, Zeb draws Leilani further into the Highmosts' intrigues. Beneath the polished, academic facade of the Highmost manors lurks a threat to the strains. An unknown force consumes their music, leaving only heart-rending silence behind. Leilani and Zeb will do anything to save their beloved strains, but as the silence grows, they face danger their previously sheltered lives could never prepare them for. Whoever is behind the death of the strains is willing to kill to keep their secret safe. To preserve the strains, the girls may have to sacrifice their friendship, or even their lives. ungekürzt.
