Kissing Mr. Right , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 511min
Kendall Clark has always dreamed of anchoring the national news. The dedicated Denver journalist has worked hard to earn more than her fluff-piece reporting job. When she's asked to star in an on-air dating show to increase her station's ratings, she initially refuses...until she learns that participating will give her a shot at a national news desk position in New York. But nothing prepares Kendall for the dating show's popularity - or for the laughable dates she's forced to endure on camera. To complicate matters further, she's falling hard for Tyler Bishop, the handsome scientist hired to consult on her first big news story. Ty soon finds himself equally smitten with Kendall and sets out to prove he's her Mr. Right. But is there room in his quiet life for a woman with such a public image? And when Kendall's integrity is questioned, will she choose her dream job or her dream man? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dara Rosenberg.

You will not only get a good laugh, but you will have an opportunity to share a good laugh with someone elseLet me explain the "cake" part of this book.

Fates Entwined , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 569min
They can never be together. The notion is laughable. Humans are inferior, a scourge on the Fae and on the magic passed down to them by angels millennia ago. And if Keen finds himself drawn to the tiny human female, he keeps it to himself. He won't add to the half-breed problem that threatens his people's existence. Reese can't stand Keen. He criticizes her clothing, won't answer a straight question, and is too handsome for her peace of mind .Her entire life, people have pegged Reese for a shallow, ditzy blond. She won't accept the stereotype from the large, arrogant Fae too. But after Keen saves her life, she begins to question what truly lies beneath his stoic demeanor. Forced together, Keen and Reese fight to survive among enemies, and Keen makes choices Reese couldn't have predicted. She glimpses a side of him that is protective and dangerously seductive. But Keen refuses to acknowledge their connection. Until he's faced with the decision to betray his people - or lose Reese forever. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Elizabeth Evans.

CIA & JFK: The Secret Assassination Files , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 224min
As the editor of JFKFacts.org, a website devoted to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Jefferson Morley is asked, "So who killed JFK? What's your theory?" Morley, a former reporter for the Washington Post and author of Our Man in Mexico: Winston Scott and the Hidden History of the CIA, invariably disappoints. "I don't know. It's too early to tell." Fifty-plus years after JFK's death, this answer is laughable but serious. The JFK story remains unsettled well into the 21st century, no matter what the various conspiracy and anti-conspiracy theorists may proclaim. Indeed, the complex reality of how a president of the United States came to be gunned down on a sunny day, and no one lost his liberty - or his job - continues to live and grow in popular memory. This is a book that reveals deceit and deception on the part of the CIA relating to the Kennedy assassination and why the CIA should reveal to the American people what it is still keeping secret. ungekürzt.

Hot Lights, Cold Steel: Life, Death and Sleepless Nights in a Surgeon's First Years , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 561min
When Michael Collins decided to become a surgeon, he was totally unprepared for the chaotic life of a resident at a major hospital. A natural overachiever, Collins' success in college and medical school led to a surgical residency at one of the most respected medical centers in the world, the famed Mayo Clinic. But compared to his fellow residents, Collins felt inadequate and unprepared. All too soon the euphoria of beginning his career as an orthopedic resident gave way to the feeling he was a counterfeit, an imposter who had infiltrated a society of brilliant surgeons. This story of Collins' four-year surgical residency traces his rise from an eager but clueless first-year resident to accomplished chief resident in his final year. With unparalleled humor he recounts the disparity between people's perceptions of a doctor's glamorous life and the real thing: a succession of run-down cars that are towed to the junkyard, long weekends moonlighting at rural hospitals, a family that grows larger every year, and a laughable income. ungekürzt.

Planes, Trains, & Broken Strings: The Laughable but True Story of an Impoverished Indie-Musician Traveling the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 764min
After losing his job, girlfriend, and life as he knew - it all within the span of two short months in early 2013 - Tom Edwards decided it was time to live out his lifelong dream of traveling the world. After turning to his guitar for income and selling most of his worldly possessions, he set out - along with two friends - with big dreams and grand visions of adventures. Shortly thereafter, when the realization was made that the group had nowhere near enough money to support their journey, they found themselves sleeping under bridges, hitchhiking with drug dealers, befriending prostitutes, living as homeless persons, hopping trains, and finding all kinds of other trouble to get into. Then on top of everything else, when tensions arise between the three companions, Edwards wonders if he'll be forced to go on alone. Follow the hilarious tale of travel-gone-wrong, debauchery, and adventure in Planes, Trains, and Broken Strings, as a broke indie-musician tries to find his place in the world with the help of a cast of colorful characters he meets along the way. ungekürzt.
