If you have other people in your Amazon Household, you can share your audiobooks through the Family Library sharing feature. Just be aware that your Amazon Household is limited to two adults with their own Amazon accounts and up to four children.
Here's what you'll need to do to add a person to your Amazon Household and start using your Family Library's sharing feature:
3. Click to open "Households and Family Library" then select "Learn more about Households."

4. Select the appropriate "Add" button.
5. Enter their name and email and click "Verify second adult's account."
They'll have 14 days to accept your invitation. Once that's done you can officially set up your Household, including deciding which aspects of your account to share, like Audible audiobooks.

There's an alternative to this method: If the person you wish to share an audiobook with has never received one through the built-in sharing feature on the app, they'll be able to access it for free. Otherwise they'll simply get your recommendation.
To use that option, open the Audible app on your phone and navigate to your library. Then tap the three dots next to the desired audiobook and select "Send this book."
