About this listen
This is the tale of the coming of age of a young man who desired to serve his country after World War Two but was too young. It demonstrates the patriotism of a different era. Brian joined the Merchant Marines at the age of 13 so that he could serve his Great Country. Quickly, his resolve and determination catapulted him into success after he retired from 20 years in the air force. Brian was happy but not complete. He just couldn't meet the right woman. Then, he met Lily.
They "had it all" by the standards of the world. Yet, beautiful homes and cars could not fill the void which tugged at them. Eventually, Lily found the answer. Many years passed as they loved their lives and each other. Like most couples, dealing with life, changes and sacrifices pulled at them. They were forced to move from places they loved as the aging process demanded their attention. At the end of his life, Brian must decide if, due to tragic losses, he should even continue to live.
This coming of age story is set in Abaco, Bahamas. If you have ever dreamed of island living, Till Heaven Then Forever provides a glimpse. Spend time on this beautiful island with people who understand all that it provides from long walks on the beach to private swims in the turquoise water. Island hop to the surrounding cays and lagoons as you marvel at sunsets and white, sandy beaches without leaving the security of home.

The correspondence between Carrie Allsop and David Mayer reveals, piece by piece, the painful details of a devastating affair between their spouses. With each commiserating scratch of the pen, they confess their fears and bare their souls. They share the bewilderment over how things went so wrong and come to wonder where to go from here. Told entirely through the letters of two comforting strangers and those of two illicit lovers, Evidence of the Affair explores the complex nature of the heart. And ultimately, for one woman, how liberating it can be when it’s broken.

Not long ago, Aiden was a successful lawyer with a swanky East Village apartment and a glamorous fiancé. Now he is faced with the ruins of his existence and on top of that he has the feeling that he is going insane. Wanda is used to being tight on cash.

In fact, they wouldn't meet. But both sense that secrets are lurking behind the facade of the gray city, where the weather is constantly going crazy.

I was tantalized by the mystery of her. The leech inside me came out to find prey, but found none in this enigmatic girl. The close proximity of her essence didn’t entice the monster within, so what did that make her? I had more questions than answers, but one thing was unmistakable; although she released me from her embrace, her hold on me remained.

When a high-powered gallery owner collides with a wildly offbeat artist, it's the perfect recipe for disaster. But in her 63rd best-selling novel, Danielle Steel proves that when two hopelessly mismatched people share a love for art, a passion for each other, and a city like Paris, nothing is truly impossible...or is it? Everything Sasha does is within the boundaries of tradition. Liam is sockless in December. While the two are utterly unalike - and a nine-year age difference stares them squarely in the face - the miracle of art brings them crashing together.

Are they brave enough to face what comes next? And will they do it together or apart?

Love Is a Verb takes his teaching to the next level. Rather than a typical marriage self-help book filled with lengthy explanations of principles and techniques, it is a compilation of true stories displaying love in action. These stories - written by everyday people - go straight to the hearts of readers, who often say that illustrations are the most effective parts of a book. Gary Chapman adds a "Love Lesson" to each story, showing readers how they can apply the same principles to their own relationships.

India Taylor lived in a world of manicured lawns and neatly maintained calendars: a merry-go-round of Little League, piano lessons, and Cape Cod summer vacations. With four wonderful children, India believed in commitment and sacrifice, just as she believed in Doug, the man she married 17 years before. For India, this was the promise she made, the life she had chosen - not the award-winning career as a photojournalist she once had. It was a choice she had never truly regretted. Until she begins to regret it with all her heart.
