The story every Le Veque fan has been waiting for...Paris de Norville (The Wolfe) and Jemma Scott Hage (The Wolfe) find love in their sunset years...with each other?It seems like an impossible suggestion. Paris and Jemma first met in The Wolfe in a fiery explosion of temper and taunting. Her temper mostly, because he was taunting. Handsome and arrogant in his youth, Paris was a powerful knight, second in command to the great William de Wolfe, and he found great sport in taunting a Scots captive named Jemma Scott.Pretty, green-eyed Jemma was the oil to his water. The fire to his ice. Perhaps the sparks that flew between them at first were those of attraction, but soon, another knight had Jemma’s attention, and Paris was relegated to a role of both friend and tormenter. He affectionately called her "banshee", and what she called him is not fit for delicate ears.It was a like/hate relationship for the ages.The years passed, and Paris married Jemma’s cousin Caladora. They had a wonderful marriage, but sickness took Caladora from him, and Jemma lost her beloved husband Kieran.Missing Kieran, and missing Caladora, now it is Paris and Jemma again in their twilight years as the sparks that flew between them so long ago are rekindled.Find out how sweet and romantic love the second time can be, as two widowers discover that life is worth living again...with each other.

Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 778min
The sequel you’ve been waiting for: the follow-up to the sensational number-one best seller The Devil Wears Prada. Eight years have passed since Andrea "Andy" Sachs quit the job "a million girls would die for" working for Miranda Priestly at Runway magazine - a dream that turned out to be a nightmare. Now Andy’s on the top of the world: She’s writing and reporting to her heart’s content; running The Plunge, her wildly successful high-fashion bridal magazine with Miranda’s other ex-assistant, Emily; and most importantly, getting married to the scion of a storied media family and the love of her life. But the night before her wedding, Andy can’t sleep. As happy as she is - as happy as she should be - she’s still haunted by the specter of her former boss. Maybe it’s survivor syndrome? Or maybe it’s justifiable, self-inflicted, paranoia. From the start, Andy and Emily have felt entitled to use their rolodex of contacts - Miranda’s contacts - from Runway as they make their way in the magazine world. As The Plunge succeeds, Andy and Emily realize they’ll soon come face to face with their former tormenter at industry functions, award ceremonies, and even weddings. Still, Andy can hardly anticipate the horrifying reality that’s approaching - a reversal so profound that she will be squarely in Miranda’s crosshairs once more. Karma’s a bitch. And Andy’s efforts to build a bright new life have led her directly to the one she fled - and into the path of the Devil herself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Megan Hilty.

Coffee on the Porch in the Morning: A Tale of Horror , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 11min
A lonely retired sheriff watches from the sidelines as a new crop of crime fighters try desperately to come to terms with evil in their midst. Arthur Pendryll's dark and brooding tale of psychotic evil descending on a small town is at once disturbing and profound. Warning: This audiobook contains very dark and disturbing images of horror. Adults should read carefully to determine if the content is appropriate for a child in their care. Here is a preview: Forensic evidence that Alex didn't really understand suggested that their tormenter kept them alive and tortured them for three to five days, before finally slitting their throats and depositing the bodies somewhere remotely. Modern forensics had been available when he retired a decade and a half past, but he'd never really integrated it into his investigations. Why the hell would he need to? Outside of an occasional robbery gone wrong or a drunken husband carrying a fight with his wife too far, there really wasn't serious crime to address until recently. Mary Ellen Allis and Thomas Harding, the prom king and queen, had disappeared on prom night. According to the papers, their friends and contemporaries at the dance said they drove off, probably to Mill Lake, right after the prom. It was a typical hang out for high school students and more than one girl had lost her virginity in the backseat of a car, while the soft sound of the lake water lapping at the shore made for romantic background noise. Alex had to suppress a smile thinking of all the kids he'd run off from Mill Lake, of the deer-in-the-headlights looks when the flashlight caught the wandering hand or the smudged lipstick, of the grateful looks when he told them to start the engine and get the hell out of the area. They hadn't found the couple when they'd found the boy's car. It hadn't been found at the lake, though. Instead, they'd discovered it at a convenience store about a mile down the road. There was a small bit o ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mike Dennis. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/008267/bk_acx0_008267_sample.mp3.
