Highland Wolf Pact: Highland Wolf Pact, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 408min

From New York Times best-selling and award-winning author Selena Kitt - over a million books sold! Sibyl Blackthorne isn't afraid of anything - except maybe being sold into marriage to a man she doesn't love. A man she's never even met. A man who, by reputation, is one of Scotland's cruelest lairds in over a century. But what choice does she have, with her father dead and her uncle now married to his brother's widow, putting him in charge of not only the Blackthorne fortune, but Sibyl's future as well? Then her betrothed turns out to actually be far worse than his reputation, so headstrong Sibyl decides life as a peasant, or even death, would be preferable to a future with such a despicable man, and makes plans to run away. On an organized hunt for wolves - or, as the Scots call them, wulvers - Sybil escapes her fiancé's clutches, only to find she's run into something far more untamed and dangerous in the middle of the woods. When a big, brawny, long-haired man, who only speaks to her in Gaelic and calls himself Raife, simply picks her up and carries her off with him into the Scottish wild, Sibyl knows she's in trouble. When he takes her to a place no human has ever been, she knows she's gone over the edge. And when he, at last, marks her as his own, she discovers that only one wild heart can claim another.

Adam Loves Eve: The Bible's Guide for Men Seeking a Better Marriage , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 575min

Unlike the type of advice you might find in most marriage books, Adam Loves Eve goes straight for the medicine by bringing the Messiah's kingdom message into your marriage. This book, for men, will not only change your marriage, but will change your life. Yes, there is still hope for your marriage!This is a book for men, specifically followers of Jesus and especially if they are married men who are finding marriage to be perplexing and more difficult than they expected. This is a book about how God's instructions in the Bible can make a man's marriage better.Before getting married, most men think that marriage will be easy. The man assumes that if he finds the right woman, he will be an excellent husband. She will love him; he will love her. What could be simpler? The Bible teaches a different message.The Bible commands men to love their wives as the Messiah loves his people: "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her." (Ephesians 5:25) This verse from Paul's letter to the Ephesians means that, according to the Bible, a man must crucify himself, so to speak, for the sake of his bride. That's how Christ loved the assembly of his people.If you are happily married, you might not understand Paul's picture, but if you are struggling in a distressed marriage, you might identify with the metaphor a little too readily. Husbands enduring unhappy marriages might think crucifixion preferable to the torment of an abrasive home life. Drawing insights from the New Testament, Messianic Jewish teaching, and the wisdom of the Jewish people, this is a book about how you can carry out the Bible's instruction to love your wife just as the Messiah loved the assembly and gave himself up for her. ungekürzt.

The Zzyzx Operation is the fifth book of the seven-part series Jeremy's Run.Six friends and two dogs are stranded deep in the howling wastes of the hottest and driest desert in North America. It is July. They are on foot. Civilization as we know it is over. There will be no rescue. There can be no escape. Most of us fear death, until it becomes preferable to life.If you are a fan of this series, you may have an inkling of what Jeremy and his friends are about to endure in their desperate bid to escape the nightmare of post-apocalyptic Los Angeles. Clichés are sometimes exceptionally apropos. In this case, “from the frying pan into the fire” pretty much sums it up. If you haven’t partaken of this journey, we hope you’ll join us for the ride. For those unfamiliar with the series, here's a brief recap:In the first book, LA Dark, an electromagnetic pulse, or EMP, triggered by high-altitude nuclear detonations takes down the US power grid and everything electronic. Five friends living in west LA realize that fate has landed them in one of the worst places possible. They resolve to flee the city for southern Utah.In the second book, Blood Loss, these five amateurs, unprepared entirely for the bitter and deadly realities of a rapidly collapsing and lawless society, make a series of mistakes and pay dearly. Reality is a harsh schoolmaster. In the third book, Run Through the Jungle, the group grows to eight. They make it as far as downtown LA. Had they known what lay in store, they might have reconsidered.In the fourth book, The Prophet’s Niece, Paula Ivanova is reunited with her uncle, Hiram Ezekiel Smith, the powerful and charismatic prophet, seer, and revelator of a cult of his creation. He's been expecting her. Her friends think she’s there to visit. True enough. Few acts are more intimate than murder. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Corey Fox.

Sea Wolfe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 274min

The fourth installment in the exciting Pirates of Britannia medieval pirate series! AD 1445 - Rhoan de Wolfe has lost himself in the mystique of the powerful pirate known as Lucifer, the mysterious first mate of the leader of the pirates of Britannia. A man with no past and no future, Lucifer deliberately keeps the details of his life private, but the truth is that a falling out with his father years ago has turned him into something dark, bitter, and brooding. But he is the best pirate in the group known as Poseidon’s Legion, a band of English pirates based in Cornwall. When Lucifer and his mates intercept a merchant ship sailing from Ireland to Plymouth, little does Lucifer realize the treasure on board the vessel goes far beyond monetary gain. A woman named Genevieve proves to be far more than merely a captive, and in that instant, Lucifer’s life is changed forever. Genevieve Efford was aboard her father’s merchant vessel, traveling back to England to marry her betrothed, when the pirates attacked. Genevieve is a woman with strong ideals, and she is vehemently opposed to marrying a man she does not love. Being captured by pirates is almost preferable, but Genevieve is a lady who does not easily surrender. Even as she plans to escape, the big, brooding pirate known as Lucifer captures her interest. For a man who has sworn off women, Lucifer is reluctantly drawn to the fiery lass. It is an attraction he cannot ignore, and unexpected passion ignites between two people who have different ideals in life. Genevieve is the fire to his ice, but when a treacherous pirate in Lucifer’s ranks seeks to separate Lucifer from his lady, the bond between Lucifer and Genevieve is something that cannot be broken.

Badger: SEALs of Steel Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 362min

When Badger Horley, a SEAL, and the rest of his eight-man unit hit an antitank landmine on a routine reconnaissance mission, all were badly injured, but one of his men died. Having only joined a year before, he'd been the youngest member of the squad. Mouse left behind unanswered questions about his life...along with seven team members who aim to see that his tragic death is brought home to those responsible. Badger's path back to health is a long and difficult one, but revenge drives him out of bed every single day of his life. Someone modified orders the morning of the incident, sending his unit straight over that landmine. At the time the altered route had been given to him, he'd been curious but not unduly concerned. What happened to his squad has brought unwavering clarity: Those last-minute changes and the explosion that shattered his team were deliberate - and he means to catch the perpetrator if it's the last thing he ever does. Kat Greenwald watches the man she's falling in love with fester a little more each time they're together. Refusing to give himself time to heal, not surprisingly he hasn't taken to his prosthetic well. As a prosthetic designer, she's dealt with men and women in endless physical and emotional states. Badger is different. He's driven, determined and deadly, but she can't help her feelings despite the negatives. She's hooked on a man whose sole concern seems to be in getting retribution for the incident that left his team in shards...while all she wants is a future happily-ever-after with him. But when her life explodes, and she's kidnapped, it's Badger who steps in to save her....Still, Kat has a long road ahead of her to convince Badger a life filled with love is always preferable to answers that can only be gained at the risk of dying to get them.

The Spartans: A Very Short Introduction (eBook, PDF)

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring The myths surrounding Sparta are as old as the city itself. Even in antiquity, Sparta was a unique society, and considered an enigma. The Spartans who fought for freedom against the Persians called themselves 'equals' or peers, but their equality was reliant on the ruthless exploitation of the indigenous population known as helots. The Spartans' often bizarre rules and practices have the capacity to horrify as much they do to fascinate us today. Athenian writers were intrigued and appalled in equal measure by a society where weak or disabled babies were said to have been examined carefully by state officials before being dumped off the edge of a cliff. Even today their lurid stories have shaped our image of Sparta; a society in which cowards were forced to shave off half their beards, to dress differently from their peers, and who were ultimately shunned to the extent that suicide seemed preferable. The legend of Sparta was even perpetuated by later Spartans, who ran a thriving tourist industry that exaggerated the famed brutality of their ancestors. This Very Short Introduction separates myth from reality to reveal the best-and the worst-of the Spartans. Andrew Bayliss explores key aspects of Spartan society, including their civic structure, their day-to-day lifestyle, and traditions such as the krypteia, a brutal rite of passage where teenagers were sent into the countryside and ordered to eliminate the biggest and most dangerous helots. Alongside this, Bayliss also sheds light on the many admirable qualities of ancient Sparta, such as their state-run education system, or the fact that this society was almost unparalleled in the pre-modern world for the rights given to Spartan women. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
