    Starstruck: Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 766min
    The middle of nowhere just got a lot more interesting! Nerdy astronomy geek Marsha, "M" to her few friends, has never been anybody special. Orphaned as an infant and reluctantly raised by an overly-strict "aunt", she's not even sure who she is. M's dream of someday escaping tiny Jewel, Indiana, and making her mark in the world seems impossibly distant until hot new quarterback Rigel inexplicably befriends her. As Rigel turns his back on fawning cheerleaders to spend time with M, strange things start to happen: her acne clears up, her eyesight improves to the point she can ditch her thick glasses, and when they touch, sparks fly - literally! When M digs for a reason, she discovers deep secrets that will change her formerly humdrum life forever...and expose her to perils she never dreamed of. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    It always starts out so innocent. A drink, a laugh, a bet. For 40-year-old Dee Harper, her humdrum life is about to become educated. When Dee's wealthy friend, Gail, makes her a ridiculous bet, she never dreams she'll actually go through with it. After all, dating 26 men in one year, from A to Z, is ludicrous. Right? Then Gail offers her $50,000 if she succeeds. Now that is an offer she can't refuse. From Adam the cocky limo driver to Kevin the klepto, Dee learns the hard way what sort of guy she doesn't want. Filled to the brim with snark and sarcasm about the joys of dating later in life, The ABC's of Dee reminds us that even though life sometimes sucks, there is always someone there to laugh with. ungekürzt.
