    Strangers Assume My Girlfriend Is My Nurse , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 276min
    With his signature acerbic wit and hilarious voice, 20-something author, blogger, and entrepreneur Shane Burcaw is back with an essay collection about living a full life in a body that many people perceive as a tragedy. From anecdotes about first introductions where people patted him on the head instead of shaking his hand, to stories of passersby mistaking his able-bodied girlfriend for a nurse, Shane tackles awkward situations and assumptions with humor and grace. On the surface, these essays are about day-to-day life as a wheelchair user with a degenerative disease, but they are actually about family, love, and coming of age. ungekürzt.

    The Radical Cross: Living the Passion of Christ , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 244min
    The way of the cross is still the pain-wracked path to spiritual power and fruitfulness. So do not seek to hide from it. "Do not accept an easy way. "Do not allow yourself to be patted to sleep in a comfortable church, void of power and barren of fruit. "Do not paint the cross nor deck it with flowers. "Take it for what it is, as it is, and you will find the rugged way to death and life. Let it slay you utterly." (A. W. Tozer, from "Coddled or Crucified?" in The Radical Cross) In this collection of short essays, Tozer considers with piercing conviction the offense and power of the cross. May you venture unguarded into this book, that you might be utterly changed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim Denison.

    “Amy, I need you to work tonight. Samira called out. Again.”  I looked up at the head pediatric nurse. “Sure, Connie. I can do that.”  She gave me a relieved smile. “Thanks. I asked you first because I knew you’d want the hours.”  You mean since I don’t have a family or life to get in the way of my working. “Yes, I could use the hours.”  “I’m finalizing the schedule for the next week. I’ll give you Saturday and Sunday off. How’s that?”  It’ll have to do. “Thanks, Connie.”  She patted me on the shoulder. “Thank you for being flexible. It really means a lot that I can count on you.”  You mean you can push me around because I’m the newbie. Not for long. Enjoy the power while you have it. “Sure. No problem.”  Connie left me alone at the desk as her pager began beeping. The nurse’s station was quiet for a change. I finished making notes on the chart on my desk and closed it.

    Blackbird, Hörbuch, Digital, 344min
    With the startling emotional immediacy of a fractured family photo album, Jennifer Lauck's incandescent memoir is the story of an ordinary girl growing up at the turn of the 1970's and the truly extraordinary circumstances of a childhood lost. Wrenching and unforgettable, Blackbird will carry your heart away. The house on Mary Street was home to Jennifer; her older brother B.J.; their hardworking father, who smelled like aftershave and read her Snow White; and their mother, who called her little daughter Sunshine and embraced Jackie Kennedy's sense of style. Through a child's eyes, the skies of Carson City were forever blue, and life was perfect- a world of Barbies, Bewitched, and the Beatles. Even her mother's pain from her mysterious illness could be patted away with hairspray, powder, and a kiss on the cheek... But soon, everything Jennifer has come to love and rely on begins to crumble, sending her on a roller coaster of loss and loneliness. In a world unhinged by tragedy, where beautiful mothers die and families are warped by more than they can bear, a young girl must transcend a landscape of pain and mistreatment to discover her richest resource: her own unshakable will to survive. Language: English. Narrator: Jennifer Lauck. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/sans/000248/bk_sans_000248_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

How long can he keep his hands off…His too-tempting stepdaughter? PG excerpt: “You'd better try to get some sleep.”  Adam's voice was uneven, and his chest hurt. So did his surging shaft. But he'd promised to protect her, and he would-even from himself.  “What about you?”  She patted the edge of the bed.  “There's room for both of us…and we're both gonna freeze if we don't.”  He was pumping off enough heat to melt an igloo!  “I don't think that's a very good idea.”  ungekürzt.

    Gallant Lady: A Biography of the USS Archerfish , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 872min
    I remember once as we sailed down Tokyo Bay with the homeward-bound pennant flying, I involuntarily patted her on the side and I swear she responded with a shudder from within. Archerfish, as I know her, and I know her well, is a fine woman. But I know her to be a great and gallant lady, and I shall always remember her just that way, the way she was." ¿Former Archerfish Commander Robert B. (Scotty) McComb The Archerfish, a diesel powered Balao-class submarine crafted in the 1940s, won a unique, heroic place in military history and the memories of her crew members. Here is her story: from her assembly in New England and her dedication by Eleanor Roosevelt's personal secretary, to her service in World War II, where she broke the back of the Japanese Navy, and her critical role in the Cold War. Here, too, is the story of her crew, who waited years to serve on the Archerfish. In their own words, these men tell how, against all odds, they sent a Japanese aircraft carrier to the ocean floor. Heroic actions, exotic ports, B-girls, perilous shore leaves, and the fascinating details of life aboard a sub, it's all here. An extraordinary real-life odyssey, Gallant Lady is a vivid, unforgettable portrait of a submariner's life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alan Sklar.

    Black Beauty , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 343min
    Sometimes he came round and patted me, saying in his quiet, pleasant way, "This horse has got a good master, and he deserves it." It was a very rare thing for any one to notice the horse that had been working for him. I have known ladies to do it now and then, and this gentleman, and one or two others have given me a pat and a kind word; but 99 persons out of 100 would as soon think of patting the steam engine that drew the train. This is the heart-warming story of Black Beauty, his masters, and his friends. Written in 1877 by Quaker Anna Sewell, partly to educate, partly as a plea that we should treat horses not as machines, but as creatures of flesh and blood and feeling. As she says: We have no right to distress any of God's creatures without a very good reason. Thanks go to the Mutasa brothers, Chenjerai and Mambakwedza, artists at The Harvest Centre at Hout Bay near Cape Town, for permission to use pictures of their wonderful horse sculpture made from pieces of broken machinery. Thanks, too, to Andy Forward of Horse Presence for permission to use their horse sounds, and to Richardemoore at FreeSound for the use of CW_Battle_Nearby, recorded at a Civil War re-enactment. ungekürzt.

    Forever , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 163min
    Men fall hard. Rock stars? Fall the hardest. This is the conclusion to Alec and Nat's story. I breathed in and out for a few seconds as I waited at the end of the aisle. It felt like I was standing overlooking the edge of a cliff, and the minute I saw my future wife, I was going to freefall. The music started. Shit, I was seriously going to pass out. People stood; Demetri nodded his head and patted me on the back. And then I saw her. It was like seeing her for the first time all over again. Memories of meeting her that first day of school had me grinning from ear to ear. The local girl, who didn't even know who I was the first time she saw me, fell for me. And in return gave me her heart for safekeeping. I ached to touch her as she walked slowly down the aisle. Her brown eyes met mine. And I lost it. Every single fear that I was holding on to snapped. Forget drugs. Forget needing to calm down. I couldn't stop my heart from beating out of my chest, and I didn't want to. I just wanted to touch her, to tell her how pretty she was in her white dress. I wanted to promise her forever; I wanted to be her eternity. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Aaron Landon, Luci Christian Bell.
