  Pride, Prejudice, and Peril (eBook, ePUB)

  "Like a modern-day Agatha Christie bestowed with a hefty dollop of Jane Austen."-Laura Childs, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jane Austen meets reality TV and murder in this quirky cozy mystery-the first in a new series! Phaedra Brighton is perfectly content with her life of lecturing college students, gossiping with her best friends, and dreaming of Mr. Darcy. As a young, respected (if somewhat peculiar) English professor, her expertise lies in all things Jane Austen-but she knows that the closest she'll ever get to being a real-life Elizabeth Bennet is in her dreams. When Who Wants to Marry Mr. Darcy, a new reality TV show, starts filming at her best friend Charlene's estate, Phaedra is intrigued. And when the producer asks her to lend her Austenian knowledge as a consultant on the show, she's over the moon. But on the first day of filming, when Charlene's new husband is found electrocuted and Charlene herself is accused of the crime, Phaedra comes crashing back to reality. With murder on the syllabus and her best friend in dire straits, there's no Mr. Darcy around to help Phaedra-she'll have to get to the bottom of this mystery herself.

  Sassy Marissa Hamilton heads to her hometown on her way to drowning her recent romantic troubles in her sister's good company and great cooking, but she hadn't counted on how badly her little sports car was going to handle the winding, snow covered Maine roads.

  Your Soul Knows: Listen, Trust, Act: Every Breath Is Gold Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 179min

  I believe every experience we go through in life is to prepare us for what's to come in our lives - to teach us the life lessons we need to know so we can be best prepared to handle our ultimate test, somewhere in the future. I believe our lives are an accumulation of life lessons that can only be learned by personal experience, to be completely understood. Listening to a life lesson, or someone lecturing you about one, pales in comparison to feeling and experiencing that life lesson first hand. I truly believe that. I believe the best way to teach someone something is to make that person believe they are learning something else. I believe the universe does that to us. It takes us on goals and missions in our lives that we believe are the most important things to us at the time. It does this to teach us lessons we need to experience and learn, so we can successfully execute them when our real mission in life finally confronts us. I believe, if you really listen, your soul will talk to you. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael A. Smith.

  Succubus Lord , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 557min

  Dude! It finally came! My roommate barely withheld his excitement as he barreled into the living room of our apartment with a package in his hand. "Check it out, Jacob." He smiled as he tore at the brown paper surrounding his purchase. As he ripped the covering off the package, bits and pieces scattered all across the floor of the living room like confetti. For a second, I thought about lecturing Todd about not making a mess of our apartment, but who was I kidding? This place was already a shithole. At least some half-assed confetti would make it feel a little livelier. My roommate was your stereotypical stoner archetype. Seriously, he looked like he belonged in a hippie van solving mysteries with a Great Dane. Todd's long, blond hair was always greasy and unkempt, and the smell of the sweet leaf reeked off him so frequently that most people just assumed he was using a hemp-laced cologne. To top off his look, Todd wore a bit of scruff on his chin in the shape of a rough soul patch, as well as a t-shirt with the logo of whatever old-school rock band or metal band that he was currently listening to. ungekürzt.

  Flicker: A Paranormal Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 353min

  Flicker is a modern-day ghost story set in a haunted diner. When Charlie Brace buys, refurbishes, and opens a diner that’s been up on blocks for many years, he gets much more than he bargained for, from neon signs that flicker insanely, to a quirky staff, to odd customers, to an even stranger hobo-philosopher who picks through his dumpster while lecturing him on the moon and mythology, to the amorous advances of the previous owner’s widow, to a mysterious mother and child who appear at the diner one morning carrying steaming baskets of pies that are, in a word, charmed, to the appearance of ghosts with murderous intentions. Are the mother and child ghosts, or do they just bake great pies? What about Charlie’s head waitress, who dresses like a woman from the 1950s and spouts diner lingo no one has used in years? What about the man in the dumpster? What about the widow, who seems to be holding back about her husband’s death? And what about the customers, who grow anxious and impatient whenever the pie runs out? Who exactly are the ghosts, why are they haunting the diner, and why do they want to kill Charlie? L. Rett Boswell is also the author of The Leadership Secrets of Squirrels and Skeleton: A Bare Bones Mystery. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Darla Middlebrook.
