    Welcome to the Castle. Hannah Alder used to know who she was. She used to be strong. She had confidence. Then "the thing" happened, and suddenly Hannah seems to have lost everything...including herself. Freshly released from her father's hospital, she is banished from home and sent to live with an uncle who puts her to work for the summer, interning under the chief building inspector in a small Ohio town. No one knows her, yet somehow everyone seems to know exactly why she's there. It's while she's on the job that Hannah first discovers the Castle: a massive stone structure set in the wheat fields of Ohio. It's soon to be the vacation destination for the kink-inclined...if the Doms who run it can ever get it properly permitted and licensed. But Hannah's nasty boss is determined to prevent that from happening. While on an inspection visit, one Dom in particular catches Hannah's eye: Master Sam. He's strong, dark, and wickedly attractive - every inch of him the very last thing someone like Hannah needs in her life. Sam Cooper sees Hannah coming a mile away, looking horribly out of place in a poorly fitted business suit. She's the Girl Friday to the building inspector who's determined to shut them down before they even open. Sam is experienced in the BDSM world, a partner in a major kink-friendly resort, so this is definitely not his first rodeo. Yet what he sees in Hannah's astonished eyes, as he gives her a private tour of the Castle, makes him do something he can't believe: He slips her his business card. Will Hannah call? Of course not. Not when she's working so hard to get back everything she's lost. She's getting better, after all.... Sometimes what you fight the hardest is what you need the most. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The definitive history of one of the most brutal campaigns of the war in the Pacific.   Before World War II, Manila was a slice of America in Asia, populated with elegant neoclassical buildings, spacious parks, and home to thousands of US servicemen and business executives who enjoyed the relaxed pace of the tropics. The outbreak of the war, however, brought an end to the good life. General Douglas MacArthur, hoping to protect the Pearl of the Orient, declared the Philippine capital an open city and evacuated his forces. The Japanese seized Manila on January 2, 1942, rounding up and interning thousands of Americans.   MacArthur, who escaped soon after to Australia, famously vowed to return. For nearly three years, he clawed his way north, obsessed with redeeming his promise and turning his earlier defeat into victory. By early 1945, he prepared to liberate Manila, a city whose residents by then faced widespread starvation. Convinced the Japanese would abandon the city as he did, MacArthur planned a victory parade down Dewey Boulevard. But the enemy had other plans. Determined to fight to the death, Japanese marines barricaded intersections, converted buildings into fortresses, and booby-trapped stores, graveyards, and even dead bodies.   The 29-day battle to liberate Manila resulted in the catastrophic destruction of the city and a rampage by Japanese forces that brutalized the civilian population. Landmarks were demolished, houses were torched, suspected resistance fighters were tortured and killed, countless women were raped, and their husbands and children were murdered. American troops had no choice but to battle the enemy, floor by floor and even room by room, through schools, hospitals, and even sports stadiums. In the end, an estimated 100,000 civilians lost their lives in a massacre as heinous as the Rape of Nanking.   Based on extensive research in the United States and the Philippines, including war-crimes testimony, after-ac ungekürzt.

    Introducing Darque Initiation, book one in the hot and sexy new Darque Billionaire series by best-selling author Diana Steele. Twenty-one-year-old journalism student Arabella Stone has always played by the rules - get good grades, tell the truth, and avoid bad boys at all costs. But when she starts interning at a high profile Washington, D.C. PR firm in the dreaded "Reputation Management" division, she can't help but become intrigued with the firm's sexy and ultra-demanding newest client, Sebastien Darque. Like a moth to a flame, Bella is hopelessly attracted to the brooding billionaire, even though she knows it's just a wicked fantasy. Men like Sebastien - gorgeous, dark, and powerful - usually aren't interested in women like her. Darque is used to getting what he wants and he doesn't take no for an answer. His drive and "take no prisoners" attitude has made him one of the most powerful media moguls in the country. He can have any woman he wants, and has, but when his mother Senator Agnes Mallory makes a bid for the presidency, Sebastien's "reputation" becomes a problem. Enter the deliciously curvy Arabella. Her naive innocence is enough to drive Darque over the edge, and after Bella starts digging around in his sordid past without permission, he senses an opening to teach the naughty intern the pleasures of being bad... ...and the punishment that goes along with it. Soon they are locked in a maze of lies and mystery, pleasure and pain, and a raging passion that knows no bounds. But as Arabella is pushed to her limits, both sexually and professionally, she begins to crave more. However, Darque guards his heart, and his privacy, from scars that run deep. And if those scars and the betrayals that caused them ever saw the light of day, it just might destroy everything... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jack O'Keefe.

    Willow  I knew all about Wyatt Evans from watching the revolving door of females exiting his dorm room every weekend. He was a bad boy. And I'd kept my distance. I was too good. Too boring. Too inexperienced to ever consider dating him. Now, it was the last semester of senior year. I was interning at a local magazine. There was one position open post graduation. The competition was fierce and I wanted it. Even if it was for a sex columnist and my experience was severely limited. How limited? I was practically a virgin. So what did I have going for me? Well, I was a really great writer. And I was willing to do whatever it took to get hired. Imagine my surprise when I woke up in Wyatt's bed. Imagine my dismay when I realized we hadn't slept together. Imagine my shock when he offered to help me win the job. How? One week together. One 50 Item Sex Bucket List. A whole lot of fun. Somehow, I was going to break the bad boy. Reviews "I have to admit, novellas tend to make me a little crazy. I get invested in a book only to realize its a shorter story (this one is 195 pages) and I am looking for my 12 hour movie. But this is the third Emma Nichols short story I have read and she has totally nailed it! When I want something sweet, steamy and to the point, going with Emma Nichols is never a disappointment." (Desiree Gorman, A Love Affair With Books Blog)"I loved the chemistry of the characters from the beginning to the end it was off the charts hot!" (Jamie Deaver, Sassy Divas Book Blog)"I loved the connection between Wyatt and Willow. He was always encouraging her to do what she wanted with her life and to not worry about what her parents might think. The sex scenes were HOT!" (Sarah Larson, Stories and Swag Blog)"Emma Nichols knows how to heat up the pages with her erotic stories and hot men ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alexandra Ralph.
