    Car Talk, The Rhinestone Plymouth, August 3, 2013, Hörbuch, Digital, 53min
    This week on Car Talk Savannah wants her car to shine. Literally. Given that it's a Plymouth Sundance, she faces a daunting task!

    Afterburn & Aftershock: Cosmo Red-Hot Reads from Harlequin , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 450min
    Never mix business with pleasure. Never bring politics into the bedroom. In a way I did both when I took Jackson Rutledge as a lover. I can't say I wasn't warned. Two years later, he was back. Walking into a deal I'd worked hard to close. Under the tutelage of Lei Yeung, one of the sharpest businesswomen in New York, I had picked up a thing or two since Jax walked away. I wasn't the girl he once knew, but he hadn't changed. Unlike the last time we'd drifted into each other's lives, I knew exactly what I was dealing with...and how addictive his touch could be. The inner circle of glamour, sex, and privilege was Jax's playground - but this time, I knew the rules of the game. In the cutthroat business world, one adage rules all: keep your enemies close and your ex-lovers closer... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Amy McFadden.

    Happy on My Own , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 96min
    A collection of personal essays from a young girl, who may have been called normal, but was anything but. Growing up with an Autistic younger brother and a bulimic mother, Abby Norman left home at age 12 and became emancipated at age 16. Her freedom sent her on a journey of self-discovery that would take her to the streets of New York City, an alcove above a stairwell in Maine, to a doctor's office and operating rooms in several states, and finally, Abby found her home in the very hospital walls where her appendix tried to passively murder her. Living by the adage, "someday this pain will be useful to you," these essays encapsulate the story of a girl who survived by realizing that home is something inside all of us: a place of peace and prosperity. ungekürzt.
