The Luna's ChoiceII

Kat Silver

Sinopse

Ayla's life has revolved around taking care of her mother and younger sister since the death of her father. She became the primary financial support when their mother started to fall apart and fall into some damaging habits. But Ayla was glad to play that role for her family, especially her little sister, Kylee. She made sure Kylee had everything she wanted from life and adored her. That was until she met her fated mate, Theo, the future Alpha who had already announced that he was taking Kylee as his chosen mate. In an attempt to spare her sister a broken heart, she ends up in another pack, where she finds that her family history is much more complicated than she ever knew. And it is that history that has now put her life in danger.

Theo didn't know if he was ready to become Alpha. He thought he had a couple more years to learn what it took to be a good Alpha to his pack. But when his father decides to step down early due to failing health, Theo believes having a strong Luna by his side during the transition is vital to its success. So, when he finds his fated mate in the sister of the woman he had already chosen to be his Luna, he feels he has no choice but to reject her. He had been led to believe that she was a cold and selfish delinquent who abandoned Kylee and their mother. He couldn't possibly have someone like that as his Luna. But when he can't sever their bond, he quickly starts to question whether he had been completely wrong about Ayla and instead had managed to run his destined future straight into the arms of another Alpha or worse.

The Law of Life

Jack London

Step into the snowy silence of the Arctic tundra and witness a profound meditation on aging, mortality, and the natural order in Jack London’s unforgettable short story, The Law of Life. 
In this powerful work of literary fiction, London strips human existence to its elemental truths. We meet Koskoosh, an aged Inuit chief left behind by his tribe as they continue their journey across the unforgiving northern wilderness. Alone with only a small pile of firewood and his memories, Koskoosh reflects on his past, his people, and the inevitability of death. His observations are neither bitter nor sentimental—only honest, wise, and hauntingly beautiful. 
Through this stark yet deeply human lens, London examines the laws that govern all life: survival, adaptation, and ultimately, acceptance of nature’s final verdict. This is not just a story of one man’s end—it is a philosophical exploration of life’s cycle, told in a voice both timeless and universal. 
Narrated with quiet intensity and reverent tone, this full audiobook immerses listeners in London’s rich narrative style, blending existential insight, naturalistic detail, and emotional depth. It’s a literary experience that transcends the boundaries of time and culture, inviting you to consider your own place in the vast scheme of nature. 
The Law of Life delivers a journey of introspection and connection with the primal forces that shape us all. 
So sit back, breathe deep, and let the icy winds of Jack London’s prose carry you into the heart of the wilderness—and the soul of what it means to be alive.

The Best American Mystery and...

S. A. Cosby, Steph Cha

A collection of the year’s best mystery and suspense short fiction selected by New York Times bestselling author S. A. Cosby, author of Razorblade Tears, and series editor Steph Cha. 
In his introduction, guest editor S. A. Cosby observes that writing short stories is “a special skill that combines brevity with wit and cleverness and the hint of the existential malaise that imbues crime fiction with its gravitas.” The stories in this col-lection overflow with gravitas in the most unexpected ways: a cryptic note left on a windshield, a murder for hire meets a game of Mouse Trap, a swipe right on a dating app goes horribly wrong. From an eleven-year-old drawn to the neighborhood spookhouse to a scholarship kid at an exclusive boarding school, a nefarious Old West gunman to a Florida woman’s struggle against both outer and inner demons, the characters in The Best American Mystery and Suspense 2024 are haunted and haunting, and wholly unforgettable.  
The Best American Mystery and Suspense 2024 includes MEGAN ABBOTT • ALYSSA COLE • TANANARIVE DUE • ABBY GENI • JORDAN HARPER • GAR ANTHONY HAYWOOD •TONI LP KELNER • BOBBY MATHEWS • LISA UNGER • and others
