Let It Breathe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 541min
Forbidden fruit can be downright intoxicating. Vineyard manager Reese Clark is determined to bring her family's Oregon winery into the big leagues, and she knows building a new tasting room and event pavilion is her ticket there. Having her ex-husband's best friend - and her secret college crush - turn up to head the construction project, however, doesn't pair well with her plans. Between her nauseating lovebird parents; her motorcycle-riding, pot-growing grandfather; and her pet alpaca, fond of head-butting groins, Reese has more than enough chaotic characters in her life. Back in college, Clay Henderson was more likely to be sprawled over a bar than building one. But even if the new clean-living Clay has matured as deliciously as an oak-aged chardonnay, he's still off-limits. As Reese's well-laid plans for the winery crumble like bad cork, Clay, the newly sober gentleman, is sweet enough to rescue Reese from a wardrobe malfunction and still spicy enough to play "I Never" with her. Can he overcome his bad-boy reputation to offer her a love too heady to ignore? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Carly Robins.

OUTCAST Ops: Game of Drones, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 492min
When a highly sophisticated terror cell steals a contingent of deadly Reaper drones from a US military base, no one has to wonder for long what they'll be used for. As America's own top military technology is turned against its homeland, it looks as though, for the first time in history, the president will have no choice but to give in to terrorist demands. Enter OUTCAST (Operational Undertaking to Counteract Active Stateside Threats) - six ex-operatives from six of America's most powerful organizations. Each has been unceremoniously released by their respective former employer for alleged misdoings that leave their pride wounded but their essential skill-sets untouched. After uniting over their shared bond of dismissal from the nation's most elite outfits, the disgruntled spooks realize that they can work together like never before to take down threats to their beloved country, a country that branded them as outcasts but needs them now more than ever. As a nauseating wave of drone strikes brings the eastern seaboard to its knees, OUTCAST is hell-bent on showing America that their way isn't the best way - it's the only way. ungekürzt.

NPD: An Explanation of Narcissistic Personality Disorder and The Narcissistic Personality Disorder Epidemic: The Misunderstood Loner, Part 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 22min
Excerpt: Narcissists can have many traits that may be undesirable to others, especially in a relationship dynamic. They often talk down to others or criticize them. They live by their own morals and values, which may change as it suits them. They can be extremely vain and self-conscious, constantly being fussy about little things. They don't enjoy intimacy and connectedness that others enjoy in relationships. The world seems to revolve around the person with Narcissistic Personality Disorder. For this very reason, they can be difficult to maintain a healthy relationship with. No one wants to hear one person talk about themselves all of the time. It gets nauseating. One of the easiest ways that you can identify a Narcissistic partner is by their dialogue with others. They don't give compliments because they believe they are superior to others, and they see no point in complimenting people who they view are inferior to them. If they do give a compliment, it will be because they know the other person values compliments. It is likely that they are using a method of giving compliments in order to gain attention or admiration for themselves. Download now to hear more! ungekürzt. Language: English.

How to Screw Up Your Marriage: Do-Over Tips for First-Time Failures , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 250min
Let's face it. People keep getting married. Yet over 40% of first marriages end in divorce and up to 67% of second do, too, with statistics becoming predictably more dismal as the number of trips to the altar rack up. It seems like, for many of us, the longing to be half of a couple so in love they make other people want to puke is too strong to ignore. The problem is, we've all grown up to expect that fairytale endings happen by accident, that if we wish upon a star, or let down our golden hair, then, blammo, we'll get our happily ever after. In other words, we're lazy and feel entitled to have the one thing we want most in the world - the one thing we should work hardest to create and nurture - without doing squat to make our dreams reality. We fall in love, we marry, we pout, we nag, we sulk, and we sabotage. How to Screw Up Your Marriage interrupts the pity party with a no-nonsense formula for couplehood success, written by a human relations expert who is herself in a wonderfully nauseating marriage with a passel of his and hers kids. 2nd Place, 2012 Houston Writers Guild Narrative Nonfiction Manuscript Contest. ungekürzt.

Summary & Analysis of Midnight in Chernobyl: The Untold Story of the World's Greatest Nuclear Disaster: A Guide to the Book by Adam Higginbotham , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 45min
Please note: This is a summary and analysis of the book and not the original book.Striking and poignant, this searing exposé unravels the untold stories behind the Soviet nuclear disaster of 1986. Midnight in Chernobyl captures the truth below the molten core which irradiated the tangled web of bureaucracy determined to erase it and ended an era.What does this ZIP Reads Summary include?Synopsis of the original bookKey takeaways from each chapterKey players involved in the meltdown and cover-upA detailed timeline of events leading up to the disaster and following itEditorial reviewBackground on Adam HigginbothamAbout the original book:It’s the flip side of the 1986 Chernobyl saga told with an objective candor lacking in historical accounts corroded by the clandestine. A nauseating tale of pain and denial, it tumbles down to the core and back again, more gruesome than any dystopian fairy tale whispered under blanket forts before torchlight shadow monsters. The nuclear nightmare nearly destroyed the world as we know it with a swift and silent drift of radionuclides, and nothing but controversy to combat its advance. The indiscriminate terror was barely averted despite the infuriating bureaucracy that plagued the Party responsible. It’s a miracle we survived.Disclaimer: This audiobook is intended as a companion to, not a replacement for, Midnight in Chernobyl.

The Magical Message of Success , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 60min
Look, this is not a book filled with metaphysical feel-good B.S. or positive thinking. For I've yet to witness an athlete, upon scoring the game-winning shot, stroll over to the sidelines, wipe a bead of sweat from his forehead, look in the camera and say: "You know Verne, it was all because of that positive thinking I did in the off-season." You see, in our brave new economy the rules have changed. No longer, could Benjamin Franklin turn the wheels of commerce, with Poor Richards Almanac. And until we hear Donald Trump say the key to his success constructing magnificent skyscrapers is positive thinking, let's just say it's a good thing, and leave it at that. You see I grew up in the church the son of a preacher man, and there is little else that gets me upset than so-called leaders intentionally leading the herd down a delusional path of leprechauns riding unicorns along rainbows. It's nauseating, certainly, you've heard visiting the Vatican today is like riding shotgun in a convertible along Hollywood Boulevard with Lloyd from the HBO show, Entourage. Look, how else can you explain politicians pandering to the idea of fairness - and in America of all countries, one of the wealthiest societies. You see much of what you've been told about success and wealth is pure unadulterated baloney!These ideas of fairness, inequality, or just being more moral and deserving of success - sure they sound nice, but I've yet to hear of success and wealth beating a path to any nice, moral, and deserving people's front door. After all, drug dealers, gun runners, and criminals can amass extravagant amounts of wealth. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dan Moskel.

The Rogue and I: Must Love Rogues, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 359min
A lady ready for battle: Miss Harriet Manning once made the mistake of falling completely, totally, and irreversibly in love with a duke's son. It's a mistake she won't repeat twice. Truly. Especially since he abandoned her just when they were about to elope to Gretna Green. Five years later, Harriet hasn't forgotten the way Lord Garret's smoldering gaze and wicked sense of humor touched her soul. Still, there's no way she'll forgive the traitorous libertine, no matter how he stirs her passions. Now, Harriet is determined to show him she doesn't care, and never did, by making merry right under his nose. But a tragic turn of events at her cousin's wedding has her wondering if, just maybe, love deserves one last chance. My dearest listeners, This audiobook is a tribute to my favorite dueling lovers, Beatrice and Benedick from Much Ado About Nothing by Shakespeare. I'd always wondered how they'd grown to hate each other and have such epic verbal battles! I hope you enjoy my homage to them. A lord who lost his heart: Lord Garret Hart, second son of a duke and now brother to the present Duke of Huntsdown, is never ever ever getting married. Bachelorhood is for him. After all, women are the very devil. Especially one woman. Miss Harriet Manning is Garret's own personal Medusa and she has turned his heart to stone. Indeed she has, but not before she absolutely ripped it to shreds, leaving him a complete wreck. Nothing will ever induce him to matrimony or nauseating protestations of boyish love again. But when he is forced into close proximity at his brother's wedding with the woman who first taught him to dream and see the world as a wondrous place, sparks flash and passions explode. Still, Harriet is not to be trusted. She callously betrayed him once. So how can he ever allow himself another chance at love when love always seems to hurt so much? ungekürzt. Language: English.
