In-laws and Outlaws: The DNA Mystery of a Music Icon's Son , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 115min

For a moment, imagine everything you thought you knew about your life, your parents and siblings, your entire identity, turned out to be some sort of twisted fiction. Add a bit of cloak and dagger to the mix, and you'll have an idea of where this story takes you. You're not really who you thought you were - you're actually someone else in the same familiar body you've always known. You need to begin a new life story, putting the puzzle pieces in place as you go along. One fellow put it to me very succinctly: "It's like you have one of those huge, 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzles in front of you...except you don't have the picture on the front of the box to look at." ungekürzt.

Every Moment She Is What She Feels , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 34min

She sings jumping and dancing, her fists alternately clenching and breaking open to clap; the corners of her marvelous mouth turning down in the fierceness of joy breaking through anguish; her hair covering her eyes until swept back with a meaty hand. In great shouts that send her strings of beads flying and knot her face into grimaces, the energy explodes and explodes again, sending out waves of electrical excitement. Some say she can sing more than one note at a time; maybe, but does it matter? In her every note there are infinite meanings. As the sixties come to a close, Michael Lydon follows Janis Joplin - a year before her death - illuminating the icon's unapologetic, all-out approach to life, her absolute vitality and, above all, her intoxicating, shape-shifting devotion to feeling. Every Moment She Is What She Feels was originally published in the New York Times Magazine, February 23, 1969. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dina Pearlman.

Founded on Goodbye (The Mixtape Series, #1) (eBook, ePUB)

His songs were better when he had a broken heart. That sentence would change my life after my dream job was dished to me on a shiny, silver platter. All I had to do? Hurt Nash Pierce enough to get him writing good music again. The pop icon's songs were no longer the phenomena they used to be. His team needed another breakthrough album-like the first he'd penned, using his heartbreak as fuel. The plan was simple: I'd go on tour with him as a backup dancer…and make him fall in love with me. I was hired to inspire-to become embedded into every lyric he wrote. Then, I was to set fire to it all-to destroy every feeling we hoped he'd develop for me. It seemed simple enough. Easy, even. I didn't expect to be consumed myself-to see so much in the man displayed in the tabloids. I didn't foresee falling for him. It didn't occur to me that, while attempting to break his heart, I might just shatter my own. Most of all, I never thought I'd fight so hard to hold on to a relationship that had always been founded on goodbye.

Icons , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 567min

Your heart beats only with their permission. Everything changed on The Day. The day the windows shattered. The day the power stopped. The day Dol's family dropped dead. The day Earth lost a war it didn't know it was fighting. Since then, Dol has lived a simple life in the countryside - safe from the shadow of the Icon and its terrifying power. Hiding from the one truth she can't avoid. She's different. She survived. Why? When Dol and her best friend, Ro, are captured and taken to the Embassy, off the coast of the sprawling metropolis once known as the City of Angels, they find only more questions. While Ro and fellow hostage Tima rage against their captors, Dol finds herself drawn to Lucas, the Ambassador's privileged son. But the four teens are more alike than they might think, and the timing of their meeting isn't a coincidence. It's a conspiracy. Within the Icon's reach, Dol, Ro, Tima, and Lucas discover that their uncontrollable emotions - which they've always thought to be their greatest weaknesses - may actually be their greatest strengths. Best-selling author Margaret Stohl delivers the first audiobook in a heart-pounding series set in a haunting new world where four teens must piece together the mysteries of their pasts - in order to save the future. ungekürzt.
