    The dying man jerked and then collapsed. His body twitched, and then lay still.  The Lama nodded again to the acolyte, who touched flame to the third stick of incense. "Spirit now released from the suffering body," said the Lama, "pay attention before setting out on your journey; pay attention for I shall detail to you the steps you must take, and the path you must follow..."The fourth stick of incense was lit, and the smoke trailed upwards, as if it had been drawn in blue-gray chalk, straight as a pillar in the almost airless room... ungekürzt.

    You can't shoot me, you're a preacher. "I haven't always been a preacher. You and I have unfinished business from before I became a preacher." The Preacher spoke softly, "I'm not gonna kill you. In fact, I'm gonna forgive you for what you did to my wife and me. However, I do require that you walk over to the sheriff's office and turn yourself in." "I ain't going no place with you." said the man. The Preacher stood, waiting calmly with his hand hovering over his pistol. The man blinked his eyes, trying to remove the sweat trickling down his face. "I'll see you in hell!" yelled the man. His hand twitched and he went for his gun. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    “Careful there, Robbie.” My sweater obscured part of my sight, and my fogged-up glasses managed to take care of the rest of it, but I’d recognize that voice anywhere, even after eight long years. It was deeper now, a bit more gravelly, but it most definitely belonged to the guy I’d spent most of my early teenage years pining after. My first - and unrequited - love.“Troy?” I exclaimed, blinking my confusion as he helped pull my sweater the rest of the way off. Troy Jacobs' gorgeous lips twitched in amusement. “You remember me. Didn’t know if you would."“Oh, I remember you,” I mumbled. Hard to forget your first kiss - or the first guy you ever loved.A 9,600 word short story about first love, second chances, and family. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kenneth Obi.

Then they all laughed at me and I joined in, half-worried. “Do I really do that?” I said. They all nodded their head. Though I smiled, I knew it was time I did something about it.I spoke to my wife that night, and she corroborated the story. “You do it, John, you give me heart attacks almost every night because I think you’re not going to take another breath."After a short time of research and a visit to the doctor within a couple weeks, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea. And thus began my search for a solution that would help me and all those who followed. In this audiobook, I’ll show you what I did to beat this condition and thus transform my life.

    Miya believes that her lover can read her thoughts. Has she just gone crazy? That is possible, seeing as she was kidnapped and taken to a research facility. Miya is enchanted by her captor and, gradually, she succumbs to his "magic hands". Content warning: This story contains abduction, bondage, and involuntary sedation. The sex is consensual and explicit. This audiobook is appropriate for mature listeners only. Excerpt: "Who are you?" I demanded. My body was giving way to panic. I pushed against the restraints, though I knew they wouldn't budge. "Give me a reading," the stranger stated. He positioned my injured arm between his hands, cupping my elbow. "Surface temperature 38 degrees," the man to my left stated. What? Was he talking about me? It had to be Celsius.... Damn it, I should know what that means. "Heart rate 140 BPM. Blood pressure 175 over 90." That I understood. It was way too high. I shuddered. But how did they read it without a cuff? "Just relax." His words blanketed me with a sense of ease, but there was something more. A warm comfort rippled beneath his hands. The pain in my elbow peeled away. With narrowed eyes he stared down at my arm. Sensation tingled toward my hand, like a rush of blood, then my hand went numb. "ETA 35 minutes," a man's voice said from the front of the vehicle. "Where are we going?" I tried to make my words forceful, but my chest was heavy. A hum of feeling in my arm consumed my awareness. My arm twitched then relaxed again. The pain was completely gone. I had tried reiki and meditation in college, but this was something I had never experienced. It was as if he commanded my muscles to relax. You're just imagining things. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Do you want to help your baby fall asleep quickly and with no stress? Then these beautiful 35 bedtime short stories are the solution!Here is an extract from the bedtime story “The Sleepy Dog Takes a Bath”:The Sleepy Dog was playing in the mud and water all day. He would bark, and he was very, very dirty.“Woof!” he would shout getting mud everywhere. “Grrrr!” he would snarl when his mommy, Mrs. Dog, would force him to have a bath.He would eat dinner with his dirty fingers and leave crumbs all over the table and footprints all over the floor. Everyone around The Sleepy Dog would get grossed out at him, but he would just go on being dirty and yucky.One day, The Sleepy Dog went home covered head to toe with sticks, leaves, tiny insects, and mud! Lots and lots of mud! Mud all the way up to his eyes!“Oh my, The Sleepy!” exclaimed Mrs. Dog. “You look like a tiny Doggy monster. Better get up and have a wash.”“But Mooooom!” The Sleepy protested, “Why do I need to take a bath when I’m just going to get dirty again?”Mrs. Dog snorted. The Sleepy needed to learn his lesson.“Fine, Sleepy Dog,” she said with her arms to her sides. “I’m going to let you see what happens to little doggies who don’t wash up.”So The Sleepy Dog had dinner that night, unwashed and stinky all the way till bedtime.“Do you want a bath now, The Sleepy?” asked Mr. Dog, looking concerned. “Nope!” The Sleepy laughed. “Woof, Woof, Woof!”The Sleepy dressed in his clean pajamas. He did not brush his teeth. He started to feel hot and itchy but he didn’t care. No bath time! Hooray!Mr. and Mrs. Dog tucked The Sleepy in bed and turned down the lights, shaking their heads at their hardheaded son. The moon rose above in the sky and The Sleepy lay in bed and tried to close his eyes. Itch. The Sleepy’s nose twitched. Scratch. Itch. Itch. Scratch. Scratch. The Sleepy Dog started scratching all over.If you want to h ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeni Brockbank. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/211525/bk_acx0_211525_sample.mp3.

    Forbidden love shouldn't feel so good. It also shouldn't hurt so much. How could the one person I can't have be the only person I truly need? Florian Harper Riley has my heart, and he doesn't even know it. I used to think that was okay, that I'd get over him, but no matter how hard I try, I can't purge his sharp green gaze from my thoughts. He's a tattoo artist, the love of my life, and the man of my dreams. But he's also my stepbrother. Fate can be wicked cruel. This is a full-length stand-alone novel from debut author Violet Blaze (and it's hot!) Excerpt: "Well, what are you waiting for, Abi? Take your pants off." The words went straight through me, piercing my heart like an arrow. Between my legs, an insistent throbbing began that I didn't know how to control. Wow. "All the way off?" I asked, knowing that was a stupid question. Florian laughed at me, hunching back over the table, pencil sliding across the page like it was nothing, like he could do this in his sleep. "Unless you want to do it with your pants tangled around your ankles." The corner of his mouth twitched. "Which I'm not opposed to." I huffed, knowing he was just teasing me and sat up, pulling off the gray leather boots I'd put on in an attempt to look somewhat stylish. Walking into this shop was like walking into a lion's den, one filled with gorgeous, perfectly put-together lionesses, dressed up like wafer thin models. I knew I'd never match up to them, no matter how hard I tried, but I couldn't seem to keep myself from trying. A pair of boots and some nice jeans weren't fooling anyone though; I had breasts and hips, and a stubborn layer of extra padding that nobody wanted to see. I knew I wasn't fat (I wasn't that delusional yet), but I also knew I wasn't winning any beauty contests. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Angelise Rosewood.

    Rachel Brighton isn't your average civil servant. She's a sexual ambassador for the human race. It's not a bad job, if you don't mind prudes calling you a "star slut". The year is 2030 and the aliens have landed, but they don't want to rule the planet. They want to woo it. An insidious plague has rendered human women the last fertile females in the galaxy, and transformed Earth into its number one mating destination. After rounding up the male population, the aliens make a deal with the new female-led government: Teach us how to make love to human women and we'll return your men. Rachel used to think nothing on Earth could satisfy her weird desires. But Earth, and her libido, are no longer alone in the universe. To save the human race, to save the aliens, she'll embark on a journey of erotic discovery. This tale of interstellar sex is 20,000 words and for listeners 18 and up.~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~He made a sound in the front of his mouth that I realized was a chuckle. "Are you considered attractive among your people?" he asked."I wouldn't be here if I wasn't."His ears twitched. He leaned lower to gaze into my eyes. "I cannot say that I find you attractive in the manner of my people," he said, "but I understand why you were chosen for this position. How do I describe this feeling? I find you...is the word 'cute' appropriate?"I nodded. "There's a few ways I can take that, most of them complimentary."Cautiously, Aurelias raised his upper left hand and swept his large fingers through my hair. "And you smell pleasant," he said. "Our females did not apply artificial scents.""But you have your pheromones.""Yes," he said, "and they are effective. Still, I enjoy the smell of jasmine as much as the next creature." His eyes moved over my body, curiosity tugging at the corners of his lips. "And this ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joanna Gibson.
