    A new deal every day from Audible. Today’s deal ends 11/27/2017 @ 11:59PM PT.

    Allie and BeaAllie and Bea by Catherine Ryan Hyde

    Over 1,300 5-Star Reviews!

    Bea has barely been scraping by since her husband died. After falling for a telephone scam, she loses everything and is forced to abandon her trailer. With only two-thirds of a tank in her old van, she heads toward the Pacific Ocean with her cat – on a mission to reclaim what’s rightfully hers, even if it means making others pay for what she lost.

    When fifteen-year-old Allie’s parents are jailed for tax fraud, she’s sent to a group home. But when her life is threatened by another resident, she knows she has to get out. She escapes only to find she has nowhere to go – until fate throws Allie in Bea’s path.

    Reluctant to trust each other, much less become friends, the two warily make their way up the Pacific Coast. Yet as their hearts open to friendship and love from the strangers they meet on their journey, they find the courage to forge their own unique family – and begin to see an imperfect world with new eyes.

    Ask More: The Power of Questions to Open Doors, Uncover Solutions, and Spark ChangeAsk More: The Power of Questions to Open Doors, Uncover Solutions, and Spark Change
    by Frank Sesno, Wolf Blitzer

    What hidden skill links successful people in all walks of life? What helps them make smart decisions? The answer is surprisingly simple: They know how to ask the right questions at the right time.

    Questions help us break down barriers, discover secrets, solve puzzles, and imagine new ways of doing things. But few of us know how to question in a methodical way. Emmy-award-winning journalist and media expert Frank Sesno aims to change that with Ask More.

    From questions that cement relationships, to those that help us plan for the future, each chapter in Ask More explores a different type of inquiry. By the end of the book, you’ll know what to ask and when, what you should listen for, and what you can expect as the outcome. Packed with illuminating interviews, the book explains:

    • How the Gates Foundation used strategic questions to plan its battle against malaria
    • How turnaround expert Steve Miller uses diagnostic questions to get to the heart of a company’s problems
    • How NPR’s Terry Gross uses empathy questions to dig deeper
    • How journalist Anderson Cooper uses confrontational questions to hold people accountable
    • How creative questions animated a couple of techie dreamers to brainstorm Uber

    Both intriguing and inspiring, Ask More shows how questions convey interest, feed curiosity, and reveal answers that can change the course of both your professional and personal life.
