    The Ghost , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 658min
    With a wife he loves and an exciting London-based career, architect Charles Waterston's life seems in perfect balance. Nothing prepares him for the sudden end to his ten-year marriage-or his unwanted transfer to his firm's New York office. Christmas is approaching when Charlie leaves New York, heading to Vermont to ski. But a sudden snowstorm strands him in a small Massachusetts town. There Charlie meets an elderly widow who offers to rent him her exquisite lakeside chateau. Hidden deep in the woods, it once belonged to a woman who lived there two centuries before named Sarah Ferguson. And from the moment Charlie sets foot inside the chateau, he feels her presence. When Charlie first glimpses her, a beautiful young woman with jet-black hair, he thinks it is a neighbor playing a joke. Until he finds her diaries hidden away in an old trunk. As he begins to turn the brittle, dusty pages, the spirit of Sarah Ferguson seems to fill his life. Sarah's first entry is dated 1789 as she writes of her harrowing journey from her native England, having fled the brutality of her aristocratic husband. Settling in Massachusetts, Sarah finds an unfamiliar land seething with the turbulence of the Indian wars. As she builds her home in the wilderness and meets a man who will transform her life, Sarah finds freedom from the torment of her past. His name is Francois de Pellerin, a French nobleman adopted by Indians and drawn into the battle for the growing nation. Their fateful union is a testament to a love so powerful it reaches across the centuries. And for Charlie Waterston, their story gives him the courage to let go of his past, and the freedom to grasp a future that is right before his eyes. In The Ghost, Danielle Steel brilliantly interweaves past and present, bringing to life two stories, centuries apart, in a timeless novel of courage, healing, and love. Please note: This audiobook has some light background noise issues.

    Ancient Ephesus: The History and Legacy of One of Antiquity's Greatest Cities , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 73min
    Although it is no longer quite as well remembered as it was thousands of years ago, one of the most important cities in the ancient world was Ephesus, a city that dates back nearly 3,000 years and can lay claim to the Temple of Artemis, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Moreover, while Sparta and Athens were often the centers of power in ancient Greece, Ephesus, located in present-day Turkey on the coast of Ionia, was an instrumental part of the Ionian League, which wielded power for a substantial period of time before the Classical Era. Thanks to its strategic location, Ephesus was an important city no matter who was in control of the region. In fact, while many of its most famous buildings were completed by 500 BCE, the city flourished after it became part of Rome’s domains, and the Romans respected the culture so much that they continued letting Ephesus use original coins. In turn, as the Western Roman Empire dissolved and the Eastern Roman Empire and Byzantine Empire maintained control in the area, Ephesus became an important religious center. In addition to a shrine inspired by the Virgin Mary, Ephesus was mentioned repeatedly in the Bible, including in the New Testament’s Revelations, and St. Paul even wrote some of the epistles in Ephesus. Ironically, and unfortunately, it was Ephesus’ role as an important place for early Christians that ensured the final destruction of its most famous feature: the Temple of Artemis. One of the oldest of the wonders, construction began under King Croesus around 541 BCE, and it was constructed of marble in place of a previous structure that had been destroyed by a flood. The 3rd century Hellenic African scholar Callimachus of Cyrene believed the older structure had been built by the Amazons, but the original Temple of Artemis actually dated back to the late Greek Bronze Age around 1000 BCE. It may have been the first columned temple of its kind, but the site was not considered a Wonder of the Worl ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Colin Fluxman.

    How to Become the Primary Narcissistic Supply to Your Narcissist: Covert Tactics to a Better Relationship in a Narcissist Epidemic: Transcend Mediocrity, Book 122 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 34min
    Many people who have dated or chosen to marry narcissistic people come to me for help. They need to know how to relate to their narcissists. They must learn how to stay out of the lines of fire of the narcissists. They are stuck in cycles of abuse and manipulation, with seemingly no end in sight. They are distraught at the possibility of continuing the relationships, but they are also at a loss as to how to continue on without their partners. A relationship with a narcissistic and self-absorbed person doesn't have to end. Despite the person being extremely immature and deficient in social, cognitive, and communication skills, he often still deserves to be loved and to belong. After all, acceptance and belonging are two of the most basic needs of human beings. Most humans deserve to feel some sense of acceptance and belonging, even if they have made mistakes or are immature in how they relate to others. Narcissists make many mistakes, and they often don't know how to relate to other people. The more mistakes a narcissist makes in regard to relating to others, the bleaker and more dismal his outlook on life becomes. It is no wonder a narcissist will begin to have a conduct disorder, an adjustment disorder, or mental health issues. Even if narcissists want to relate in positive ways to others, experiences have shown that they cannot do so without a great deal of pain and frustration. And thus they might give up on relating positively with anyone at all. But how does one begin to have a healthy relationship with a narcissist? Don't narcissists generally destroy any ability to have safe and healthy relationships by their very narcissistic natures? Doesn't their self-absorbed behavior conflict with the very acts of giving and intimacy that are necessary in an intimate relationship? Most of the time, a relationship with a narcissist cannot reach levels of personal security and freedom that are experienced in healthy relationships. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Sam Reilly Collection , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1592min
    This collection contains three best-selling Sam Reilly novels by the new master of action and adventure, Christopher Cartwright. The Last Airship: In 1939, a secret airship departed Nazi Germany in the dark of night filled with some of the most influential people of its time. Its cargo: a complement of rich Jewish families carrying their most valuable possessions. One such item among them was as dangerous as it was priceless. The airship never reached its destination. In 2015, Sam Reilly, a marine biologist and wealthy son of shipping mogul James Reilly, discovers a missing clue about the lost airship and what follows is a violent treasure hunt kept secret by the most powerful men in the world today, driven by their greed and need for that which all are motivated: the opportunity for unlimited power. The Mahogany Ship: An ancient shipwreck. A two hundred year old mystery. A plague that’s destroying all marine life. A pyramid half a mile below the sea. And a puzzle that must be solved before it destroys the human race. On the 18th of February, 1812, the Emily Rose became shipwrecked on the southern coast of Australia. The survivors are forced to walk nearly 1,000 miles through the unexplored land to reach the only settlement Sydney Cove. Nearly 200 miles inland, they come across the remains of a monstrous ship, far bigger than anything the British Navy had ever constructed. Through basic communication achieved with the natives, they learned that the ship had been there for a very long time, maybe 1,000 years. Despite the details of the mysterious ship in the journals from the survivors of the Emily Rose, no evidence that the mahogany ship ever existed was found - until now. A mining exploration in Australia takes a core sample 500 feet below the surface of a deserted mountain. The sample returns no evidence of gold deposits but something much more valuable - a single Spanish gold coin dated 1518. Could ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Gilmore.

    Economics of Scale , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 42min
    The beginning of this economic concept, economies of the scale, can be dated back to Adam Smith, who was a Scottish pioneer of political economy and an important key figure during the Scottish Enlightenment Era. Smith first mentioned this concept in his book Wealth of Nations in 1776, which was based on the idea of obtaining greater production return profits through the use of division of labor. The economies of the scale rely on the fixed cost that are uniform and do not vary with any of the alterations in output processes or variable costs, which may undergo changes due to change in the amount of output. Other sources of the economies of scale are production, managerial, technological, financial, and marketing. The economies of scale tend to have a significant effect on the production costs of the material. The economies of scale reduce the per unit fixed cost of the product and with increased production the fixed cost of the product expands over the entire output at a greater rate than before. The economies of scale are also responsible for bringing down the per unit cost value of the product. This occurs due to the expansion of production scale, which as a result improves the efficiency of the production processes. The economies of scale are cost-advantageous and the working of business takes place through exploitation of expanding scale of production. There are broadly two main types of economies of scale: internal and external economies of scale, which are further subdivided into various types. In simple terms, diseconomies of scale can be understood as the opposite condition of economies of scale. It is a condition that arises when economies of scale fail to function within the firm and when there is an increase in the value of costs per unit. The basic fundamental concept of economies of scale is the less the quantity of produce, the greater the per unit fixed cost of the product. The diseconomy of scale generates in the ungekürzt.

    Bad Choices Make Good Stories: Finding Happiness in Los Angeles: How the Great American Opioid Epidemic of the 21st Century Began, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 492min
    The strange true story of a writer who falls in love with one of his readers and meets his future wife on Goodreads.Dear Reader,You're a little late to the party. Where the hell have you been? This is already the third and final part of the trilogy, and you're only joining us now? Tsk tsk tsk.Let me get you up to speed on what you've missed so far:In book one, Going to New York, you missed the utterly fascinating, nay spellbinding, saga of me growing up in Germany and later emigrating to New York. I was a brooding, troubled teenage hacker. Wow! Good stuff! It's almost like my life was the perfect kind of crazy to make a really awesome book!Anyway, being a teenage hacker came in handy later in life. I went from rags to riches thanks to my keen understanding of technology and how to use the web to my advantage.In New York, I was married to Donna, a girl I had met online. She was an agoraphobic, prone to temper tantrums. And fun was had by all, which led to a divorce 16 years later. That's where the story gets really interesting.I began dating. It didn't go well. I was no good at it. OK, truth be told, I was really bad at it. Apparently I had terrible taste in women. A heroin-addicted hooker named Alice broke my heart and robbed me of my will to live. Doesn't sound very fun, does it? But it's a fun read, I promise. Dark, but fun. Mesmerizing even!Brokenhearted, I moved from New York to Florida. That's where the first book ends.The second book you missed (I'm not mad at you. I'm just disappointed.) is called The Heroin Scene in Fort Myers, which is a very fitting title, believe you me.Sometimes I'm a slow learner, so I dated my way through the heroin scene in Florida, and I couldn't figure out for years why I wasn't finding any wife material. But oh how I tried. And tried. In all the wrong places. Pretty sad. I'm not proud of it.After years of sad pathetic sex with heroin addi ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: William R. Keeton.

    Carolyn's Makeover: A MFM Threesome College Co-Ed Sex Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 32min, (USK 18)
    What girl hasn't watched one of those incredible makeover videos and wished someone would take the time to do the same with her? This girl sure has. My name is Carolyn and I'm a confessed, life-long nerd. I know it's a dated term, but facts are facts. One wonderful day during my sophomore year of college, a friend of mine set out to change all of that. She saw the beauty underneath and pledged to not only give me a makeover but to also take me with her to the wildest and sexiest party of the year. What happened there was amazing and easily the sexiest thing that has ever happened to me. Warning: This audiobook contains very explicit sex, including first time threesome sex, three-way sex, MFM threesome, oral sex, sex in public, college co-ed sex, and more. Only mature adults who won't find graphic sexual content offensive should listen to this story. Here is a preview: "Both of us?" they each said at the same time. I nodded, "That is," glancing at their crotch, in turn, I said, "If you're each up for it." That was all I needed to say as they came inside and I shut the door behind them. With a quick hand, I locked it and walked across the room, removing my top already with each slow step. It was almost like I was lost in the best dream I had ever had. Suddenly there were two handsome guys, each completely into having sex with me. Gone was the nervous genius who was only good at making guys feel dumb. She'd been replaced with a goddess who knew how to make every man in the room want to be with her. What can I say? I was hot and bothered, to say the least, but I wasn't the only one. Both guys were already taking their clothes off too, sparing only a glance at each other before they nodded and started to disrobe. By the time I reached them, I had only my undergarments on including the garters, and each of them were down to their boxers. I'm not sure what came over me, but I only spared a moment kissing each of th ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Concha di Pastoro.
