Nowhere Safe (Slye Temp) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 744min
Book 2 in the exciting Slye Temp romantic suspense series from New York Times bestseller Dianna Love. Josh has nothing to lose until an unforgettable woman gives him a reason to live. A blown CIA operation in the UK destroyed an elite mercenary black ops unit two years ago. Surviving members disappeared to heal their wounds, and have now resurfaced as part of Slye Temp, an agency contracting security work with corporate America. At least, that's what goes on above ground... Slye Temp agent Josh Carrington should have died during the blown UK mission, but he didn't. Scars fade and nightmares can be managed, but he'll never forget watching an innocent woman die because she trusted him. Tempted by the best, he sticks to Personal Rule Number One: Never mix business with pleasure. Slye Temp sends Josh to uncover a leak in a DEA task force...a mole in league with the traitor who betrayed the UK team. A deadly shipment is bound for the US and nothing will stop Josh from taking down this mole, blocking the shipment, and nabbing the traitor. Not even Trish Jackson, hardheaded sister of his #1 DEA suspect. A faceless stalker has turned Trish's life into a living nightmare and threatens to kill anyone who helps her, including Josh, the new man on her brother's task force who has planted both unwelcome feet in the middle of her world and refuses to leave. The closer Josh gets to the twisted truth, the more he struggles to keep Trish out of harm's way--and his bed--but the sultry firecracker gets under his skin like no other woman, forcing him to question everything, starting with Rule Number One.

The Reality Behind the BTK Killer: Dennis Rader , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 60min
The world is now filled with notorious events and happenings you never expect to happen. The worst part is that people are the only reasons why such circumstances exist or occur. Society is composed of different kinds of people with various beliefs and philosophies in life. There are some who abide by the law provided by the government and are guided by the morals in their religious beliefs. However, a number of people take different paths that are against the law. Killings, murders, and other types of crimes are evident in different parts of the world. Despite having the authorities to take care of the safety and security of people, some hardheaded people still manage to do things according to their own wills and perspectives. They are even proud of the number of crimes that they have done. This was evident when Dennis Rader made a loud noise as a serial killer for his number of victims and crimes done. He became the notorious Wichita Serial Killer, who managed to keep himself hidden in the eye of the authorities for almost 30 years, while he was able to continue his legacy in killing and murdering. What does it take to be a serial killer? As most sources state, a serial killer refers to a person who murders three or more people. This is usually due to abnormal psychological gratification along with the murders that take place over a month and includes significant breaks between these months. Even though it is said that the usual motive of a serial killer is psychological gratification, which involves sexual contact with the victim, the FBI states that the motives could include thrills, anger, attention seeking, and financial gain. With all the stated motives, a question is left hanging: What was Dennis Rader's motive for his notorious serial killing? Knowing who Dennis Rader is, including his personal life even before his notorious acts, will definitely help you to know. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shenika Curtis Gleghorn.

Retreat , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 697min
Every once in a while, you need to get away from it all. I was a woman on the edge, shaken and shattered after a breakup that felt like it tore my entire world apart. My best friend, sick of watching me drown in misery and melancholy, harassed me until I agreed to go with her on a weeklong wilderness retreat. She promised days spent bonding and getting in touch with our inner badasses. It was supposed to be all about the two of us roughing it and making do with the bare minimum. She assured me we were going to be pushed to our limits in ways that were unimaginable. Neither one of us could have ever guessed just how right she was. Nowhere in the glossy brochure did it say anything about the fact I was going to have to battle the insufferable but deliciously rugged and sexy trail guide instead of the elements. The brochure also forgot to mention the part that warned when you left civilization behind, there was no place to pack your inhibitions and fears. I was told that I would be facing a week where the only thing I should expect was the unexpected. However, no one mentioned that I was going to have to fight for my life - and my heart - as soon as I ventured into the unknown. I was a pro at hiding from my feelings, but when it came time to face a real threat, one that could change everything, I learned I was more of a no surrender, no retreat kind of girl. Retreat is a stand-alone novel, the first in the Getaway series, which centers on the hardheaded and brokenhearted Warner brothers and the women who dare to love them. These boys are very good at putting the wild in wilderness. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Natasha Soudek. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/030399/bk_adbl_030399_sample.mp3.

Destin's Hold: The Alliance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 483min
Internationally acclaimed, New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of Science Fiction, Urban Fantasy, and Paranormal Romance, S.E. Smith, brings another action, adventure, and suspense-filled story to transport listeners out of this world! Destin Parks will do whatever it takes to rebuild the city he calls home, even if it means working with another alien ambassador. Her predecessor left him hesitant to trust the alien diplomats assigned to Chicago's rebuilding, but Destin knows that if he refuses to work with them, he will be replaced, and he won't give them the satisfaction. Jersula Ikera was assigned to Earth by the Alliance Council. The Council hopes her logical mind and calm demeanor will resolve the upheaval caused by the last ambassador. Jersula has fought hard for her position, and while not pleased with her current assignment to liaise with humans, she will do her best to help rebuild the world its inhabitants have destroyed. What she does not anticipate is her reaction to the hardheaded human male that she has been assigned to work with. His ability to get under her skin and ignite a flame inside her is quite alarming, mystifying, and leaves her questioning her own sanity. When Jersula uncovers an alien cartel's plans to traffic human women and children, a near fatal attack leaves her unable to trust anyone but Destin, who can't bring himself to trust her in return. Together, Destin and Jersula race to stop the cartel before anyone is taken off-planet, but the traffickers are not the only ones they are fighting against; Waxian and Drethulan forces have targeted Earth. Can Destin and Jersula stop the traffickers and prevent the deadly forces of the Waxians and Drethulans from destroying the progress they have made? Will the Alliance be able to protect Destin when the enemy discovers his connection to a powerful Alliance family? The battle for Earth has just become personal. ungekürzt. Language: English.
