Mrs. Fenton's Journey , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 551min
A glimpse into the life of Elizabeth Fenton appeared in print in 1901 when her early diaries of colonial life in India and arrival in Van Dieman's Land were edited and published in London. Now Mrs. Fenton's direct descendant, Tasmanian journalist Margaretta Pos, reveals the full story of Elizabeth Fenton's life, from her joyful but ultimately tragic life as a well-bred young Anglo-Irish wife in India to her new life as a wife, mother, and grandmother in the still-wild colony of Van Dieman's Land - Tasmania.Building on never-before-published diary entries by Elizabeth Fenton, Pos weaves historical details and contemporary newspaper reports into a refreshing, sometimes rollicking and frequently moving 19th-century tale of a colonial family's fortunes, its triumphs and tragedies, and the quite singular woman who confided the best and the worst of it to her diary. ungekürzt.

The Desirable Duchess: Regency Royal, Book 14 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 289min
Lovely Alice Lacey was a true Incomparable, and her marriage to the Duke of Ferrant was the event of the Season. But almost none realised, however, that Alice was secretly in love with someone else - or that she had confided her feelings to a clever talking mynah bird who determined to announce these intimacies at the moment of the couple's wedding! Now the gossip mongers were relentless. Alice's marriage had started out and remained cold and impersonal, and her new husband was already rumored to be taken with another woman. Before she even realised what was happening, Alice found herself in a world of opposites: she found out that the man she had thought she loved was something other than what he seemed, and the man she had married was something far more than she'd hoped. Her last hope and redemption had to be convincing the man she had wed that they were in love. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Karen Cass.

The Drummond Girls: A Story of Fierce Friendship Beyond Time and Chance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 575min
An inspiring and heartfelt memoir about the friendship between eight women forged over two decades. The eight Drummond Girls first met in 1991 at Peegeo's Food & Spirits in Northern Michigan, where, at the time, they were all waitresses, bartenders, or regular customers. When one of them got engaged, they celebrated with a trip to Drummond Island - their first trip together to the remote, 36-mile chunk of rock, dive bars, dirt roads, and beautiful forests - and it's where they became bonded forever. They've made this voyage every year since then as a way to retain a piece of their wild youth, despite the taming influence of marriage, motherhood, and management. This year their focus is Beverly, oldest of the Drummond Girls at 65, whose memory is beginning to lapse. Undaunted, the other women intend to help Beverly remember all they've shared - every campfire, every late-night talk, every secret confided. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mardi Jo Link.

During her senior year of college, Clare Michaels takes a spring break trip to Florida with three other girls, including her best friend, Lee. She's hoping for adventure and a few stories to share back at school. Instead, a string of bad choices leads to a horrific encounter, and Lee offers herself up so that Clare can escape. In the weeks and months that follow that fateful incident, Lee, once so dynamic and ambitious, flounders and withdraws. Clare was the only person to whom she'd ever confided about her troubled past. For Clare, that role felt like an honor - until it became a burden. Now she's trying to make amends for her momentary selfishness by taking care of Lee. Years pass, circumstances change, and contact between Clare and Lee ebbs and flows, but the events of that night in Florida are impossible to escape. They keep dragging Clare back, forcing her to confront what really happened and her part in it.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Laurel Lefkow.
