His Hands of Magic: Erotica Short Stories, Book 13 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 48min, (USK 18)
If you’re on the outside looking in, winter time on a farmstead seems like an ideal aesthetic. There are the late autumn leaves buried under a brush of snow, the steam drifting up from enamel tea mugs to stain the windows, the hearty meals marketed inside every lifestyle magazine around this time of year. For Katherine, winter means having to wake up in the dark, fighting five times harder to keep her herb garden healthy and her vegetable garden from frosting over, and working on her tractor’s engine with bare fingers against ice-cold metal. Past winters had never seemed that tough. For one thing, her ex-husband and her college-bound son used to help with the load, and she was younger. At 40, she’s not nearly old enough to sit out of any of the action, but her body’s letting her know exactly what it thinks about her proudly going at it alone. But recently, her body’s been telling her something else about her lonely lifestyle, and both of these messages have been sounding the same lately.She needs an extra pair of hands to help her through the winter. As luck would have it, her best friend is hosting a city-raised cousin desperate to get in touch with his farmland roots. Tony’s still a little too idealistic about farm life for Kathy’s liking, but there are plenty of other reasons to like the young man, not least of which the way she can’t stop thinking about the weight of his full frame pressing down between her hips on a cold winter night... ungekürzt.

What would her life look like without her beloved island in it? Where would she go? Ellen had come back here - to the place she felt she belonged - thinking she would stay here. But was it home...or just a place to hide? Canada, 1918: The First World War is over, and those who have been fighting in Europe are heading for home, forever changed. Among the lost, the damaged, and the broken is former nurse Ellen Copley, who finds herself returning - not to her house in Glasgow, but to her childhood home on Amherst Island. There, she feels sure, in the warm embrace of the McCafferty family, with her beloved aunt Rose and her cousins, she will feel safe and loved. She will be able to escape the ghosts of the past and her loss and find peace. But the island is a changed place, too. The war has affected life the world over, and Aunt Rose is struggling to keep their small farmstead going. The family’s only hope is asking their neighbors, the Lymans, to help. But Jed Lyman is a broken man, both physically and emotionally, and his once-adoring brother, Lucas, is now more distant than ever. And as Ellen fights to save the farm, she has to ask: What makes somewhere a home? And - when help comes from an unexpected place - she wonders, has the man she’s destined to love been waiting for her out there all along? Listeners love Kate Hewitt: “Fantastic....

'The Solitary Man': In Defence of Preppers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 211min
There are millions of "preppers" that are working feverishly every day to get prepared for what they fear is a disaster about to happen in America. The motivation for prepping is different for each person. Donald has been getting his farmstead ready by making it more self-reliant in case of a solar storm occurrence that the experts say had a 12% chance of taking the electrical grid out. They should have said a 100% because it has happened and Donald was nowhere near done prepping for it when it occurred. Now the burden is on his shoulders to figure out how to pull the community together for mutual survival while trying to hold onto his own small store of preps. The Sun has exploded a coronal mass ejection and sun spot activity sent electromagnetic waves toward Earth that disabled all power and communications. His pursuing self-reliance to optimize return on resources might of just backfired on him and made him a target, as he is about to get overwhelmed with people who had not prepared and are asking or demanding to share in the food that he has put away for his family. Prepper community core values include 1) Being responsible for our own destiny as individuals, and 2) Assisting one another to advance our well-being. Prepper wisdom dictates that you are your own best bet. If you begin your life with that premise, then it will be hard to become a victim. That does not mean that you will not encounter barriers to your achievements or get victimized. This is the hard part to prepare for. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Duane Sharp.

Convinced that her case is connected to the strikingly similar disappearance of another young girl, Farrow wants Sarabeth's help, and he'll do whatever it takes to get it, even if that means dragging her back to the last place she wants to go-the hills and hollers of home, to face her estranged family and all her deepest fears.

The Way Back: A Soldier's Journey , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 670min
Lori Moyer is devastated by an email from far away Wisconsin. "They are tearing down the old dairy barn on your home place and selling it off in pieces". Lori pleads, "It is not just a barn. It is an icon - a way of life!" When a journal is found in a beam in the hayloft, her son sends it to her, explaining, "no one here knows John Chapman who wrote this, perhaps you remember him". Yes, Lori indeed remembers John as a father figure, who thought of her as his own little girl, who rescued her often, and told her stories that guided her life. He was hired to finish the barn and stayed on to run the dairy. She types his name into a search engine and the Internet sends back two news items from 1925, telling of John's disappearance from his own farmstead, and describing how a posse found him a week later hiding in the loft of his barn. Why that happened five years before he came to work for us, Lori reasons, perhaps it explains why he came. Dismayed but intrigued, Lori reads "The Necklace of Words", John's account of his life after fighting in the trenches of World War I. Beginning in 1930 when he was hired, John writes eloquently in poetry and prose of his ongoing battle with what today we call "Post Traumatic Stress". Lori finds herself captivated, as she once was as a child sitting at John's feet, but this time, as she reads of his pain and longing, relives his nightmares, and encounters her parents and herself through his eyes. She reads of Whinneboujou, and his Mule Sweat Lodge where John and her father went to learn the wisdom of the ancient Anishinabe Indians. Did those encounters help John heal from his losses? Did they help him to trust in the veterans' group he later joined? Lori revisits her animal companions, laughs at her father's Irish sayings, and travels with John up Jacob's Ladder, the mystical light beam through the high windows that turned the barn loft into a cathedral. "The War of the Worlds", broadcast in 1938 terrified ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: S.K. Carnes. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/068473/bk_acx0_068473_sample.mp3.
