Summary:

Small towns are definitely not for me. The understanding was that I would one day return to Chamberlin, California. What my father didn't count on was that once he sent me away, I would never come back-at least not until he was gone.

Which brings me to now, his wake. It also brings me to her. The girl who has grown into the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on-Laurel Anderson.

She's looking at me as though she wishes I was the one she watched get buried this morning. Well, nothing to do but see if I can seduce the pure and passionate Laurel, and change that anger I see in her eyes to something just as fiery . . . desire.

The last time I saw Noah Chamberlin, I was a doe-eyed innocent and he was the boy of my dreams. You'd think after all these years, I'd feel the same blind indignation and rage that has haunted me since that day. Instead, I felt something altogether unwanted and unexpected-lust.

If the rumors are true, he's only going to be in Chamberlin for a few days. I can handle that. But when Noah's forced to stay and run the family business, it puts us in dangerously close proximity. And in a town this small, that can only mean one thing-trouble.

Contains mature themes.

Take a rollicking tour through the sports world of 1996, when debuts, comebacks, movies, and pop culture crossover changed the sports landscape forever. From college to the Olympics to the pros; from the NBA to golf, tennis, and boxing, 1996 was home to athletes and teams who were among the best marketed, most beloved, colorful, and greatest in history. In 1996: A Biography, sportswriter and author Jon Finkel uncovers the stories behind the stories while interviewing a who's who of '96ers to reveal in thrilling detail how their collective influence on sports and pop culture still resonates to this day.

For those of us who remember when Iverson, Kobe, The Rock and Stone Cold, the MLS and the WNBA all debuted; when the US Women's Olympic Gymnastics Team-the Magnificent Seven-won gold for the first time in history; when Mike Tyson and Magic Johnson made their comebacks; when MTV's Rock n' Jock, Michael Jordan's Space Jam, and ESPN's Dan Patrick and Stuart Scott were the bomb; when the Fun 'n' Gun offense changed college football; when Ken Griffey, Jr., ran for president (really! remember?); when Derek Jeter won Rookie of the Year, Favre marched to his first Super Bowl, and Jerry Maguire had everyone saying 'show me the money' . . . 1996 is a sports time machine you've got to take for a spin.

From ten years ago!

By chance, Lily finds her way to Minnow Bay Inn. There she will discover not just a place to lay her head, but new friends, new inspiration, and maybe even a new chance to fall in love.

Title: Nine Days in Heaven: A True Story

Author: Dennis Prince, Nolene Prince

Narrator: Ann Richardson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:37:14

Language: English

Release date: 05-11-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Health & Wellness, Christianity, Naturopathy & New Age

Summary:

Just over one hundred fifty years ago, in Berlin, New York, twenty-five-year-old Marietta Davis suddenly fell into an unconscious state, from which neither family nor physician could arouse her. When she finally regained consciousness, she described with almost supernatural perception how angels had escorted her spirit to Heaven and Hell.

Her vision made her the talk of the community and a legend for generations to come.

Nine Days in Heaven brings the story of Marietta Davis to a new generation. The nineteenth-century language of the original has been updated for easier understanding, but the detailed portrayal of her vision remains intact.

- Journey with Marietta to the shimmering reaches of PARADISE, where the redeemed enjoy the beauties of the new creation.

- Observe children who died on earth as they are taught the MYSTERIES of God in infants' Heaven.

- Grieve at the PLIGHT of the lost as they suffer the wages of sin.

Supported by biblical references and practical observations, Nine Days in Heaven is more than the fanciful creation of a young woman's imagination. It is a travel guide to the life to come.

Title: Gender: A World History

Author: Susan Kingsley Kent

Narrator: Elizabeth Wiley

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:58:46

Language: English

Release date: 05-11-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Non-Fiction, World, Social Science

Summary:

Gender exists in almost every society as a way of organizing its people. Gender is used to assign certain responsibilities, obligations, and privileges to some, and to deny them to others. In Gender: A World History, Susan Kingsley Kent tells the story of this seemingly simple but in fact quite complex concept. With historical perspective she critically examines our everyday understandings of women and men, masculinity and femininity, and sexual difference in general. Central to this account is the conviction that gender is neither natural nor innocent. What passes for masculinity and femininity in one society might not do so in another. Even the passing of time can change what gender looks like in a particular culture. Thinking about the history of gender can also shed light on other types of relations, such as those between a government and its people, between different social classes, and between a colony and its colonizer.

Ranging from prehistory to the present, this book presents a chronological picture of gender across the globe. From Hatshepsut and the rise of patriarchy in the ancient world, to the Bushido code of the samurai in wartime, to Susan B. Anthony and the women's rights movement in the United States, to the gay and trans rights movements of today, the force of gender in world history cannot be denied.

Title: For the Many: American Feminists and the Global Fight for Democratic Equality

Author: Dorothy Sue Cobble

Narrator: Susan Ericksen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 22:14:24

Language: English

Release date: 05-11-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Non-Fiction, Politics, World, Social Science, Political Advocacy

Summary:

For the Many presents an inspiring look at how US women and their global allies pushed the nation and the world toward justice and greater equality for all. Reclaiming social democracy as one of the central threads of American feminism, Dorothy Sue Cobble offers a bold rewriting of twentieth-century feminist history and documents how forces, peoples, and ideas worldwide shaped American politics. Cobble follows egalitarian women's activism from the explosion of democracy movements before World War I to the establishment of the New Deal, through the upheavals in rights and social citizenship at midcentury, to the reassertion of conservatism and the revival of female-led movements today.

Cobble brings to life the women who crossed borders of class, race, and nation to build grassroots campaigns, found international institutions, and enact policies dedicated to raising standards of life for everyone. Listeners encounter famous figures, including Eleanor Roosevelt, Frances Perkins, and Mary McLeod Bethune, together with less well-known leaders, such as Rose Schneiderman, Maida Springer Kemp, and Esther Peterson. Multiple generations partnered to expand social and economic rights, and despite setbacks, the fight for the many persists, as twenty-first-century activists urgently demand a more caring, inclusive world.
