Ogni sera, alla stessa ora, l'intero paese si ferma in ascolto davanti alla radio. Mentre nelle case si diffondono le prime note della sigla musicale, nel piccolo studio di calle Caspe, a Barcellona, cala il silenzio, una luce inizia a lampeggiare e due labbra dipinte di rosso si avvicinano al microfono per augurare la buona notte agli ascoltatori. Sono le labbra di Aurora, la presentatrice di uno dei programmi radiofonici più popolari nella Spagna postfranchista degli anni settanta: "La posta del cuore della señorita Leo".

Three years later, gold coins from an even earlier century were found at the site. The city of Jerusalem is like a layer cake of history—more than five thousand years of complicated history—all of which author Ellen Morgan explains clearly and objectively in this audiobook.

La famiglia Casadio vive da sempre nel borgo di Stellata, all'incrocio tra Lombardia, Emilia e Veneto. Gente semplice, schietta, lavoratrice. Poi, all'inizio dell'Ottocento, qualcosa cambia per sempre: Giacomo Casadio s'innamora di Viollca Toska, una zingara, e la sposa. Da quel momento, i discendenti della famiglia si dividono in due ceppi: i sognatori dagli occhi azzurri e dai capelli biondi, che raccolgono l'eredità di Giacomo, e i sensitivi, che hanno gli occhi e i capelli neri di Viollca, la veggente.

This riveting collection of true stories from Dr. Martina Scholtens is filled with hope and humor, and together make up a deeply moving portrait of how one doctor attempts to provide quality care and advocacy for patients while remaining culturally sensitive, even as she wrestles with guilt, awareness of her own privilege, the faith she was raised with, and vicarious trauma after hearing countless stories of suffering. Based on her experiences, Scholtens’ writing explores the transformative moments in which a doctor-patient relationship becomes a human-human connection.

I’ve always held my own. I’m determined. I’m happy. I’m strong. But not right now - right now I’m weak, pathetic. I screwed up. I screwed up in a way I can’t fix. I destroyed someone. I stomped on a heart. I broke the one rule all women should live by. There’s no coming back from it. Yet, I can’t seem to find the strength to stop. Nicolai - that name, it ruins me.

Brody - that’s the name that left my lips so many times, the name that stole my heart, the name that made me into the woman I am today, the name that eventually shattered my world so completely. He built me up, with love and desire - and then his darkness tore me down. Now he’s gone, out there trying to fight a battle that isn’t his to fight. He’ll die. No truer words have ever been spoken.

No one dominates me. Not the supermodels I’ve slept with, not the rich women whose necks I’ve dressed in diamonds. So, imagine my surprise when I get a drunken e-mail from an employee I’ve never met, containing not one, but dozens of erotic stories, all starring yours truly. And in every one of them, I’m a submissive. I should let it go, but I can’t. This woman needs to learn that John King gets spanked by no one.

Carrie-Anne Trombley has always been invisible. But behind her book-smart, snarky attitude is a girl desperate to know what it feels like to belong. Bryan Hughes has always been Mr. Popular. But behind his goofball, jock exterior is a guy desperate to know what it feels like to be wanted. It starts with a challenge; one last school project before graduation. There's no denying how much they get under each other's skin. There’s just one problem...the end of high school is right around the corner. And their plans for the future didn't include falling in love.

She called it a cruel seduction meant to take what belongs to another. I call it taking back what belongs to me. Because from the start she was mine. From the moment I saw her photo, she was mine. When her dark eyes narrowed on me, she was mine. Even before she gave herself to me, she was mine. And she always be mine.
