Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Digital Edition; Grier Rating: A*** Frances has been married to Bill for many years. Their son, Bob, is in high school. Frances had been left alone too often. Bill's occupation with business, his insensitivity, his indifference had drained their marriage of meaning and warmth. Yet, it never occurred to her to think of divorce – or to have an affair with another man. It was easier to shut herself off from all desire, all feeling. It was like being dead… but it was safe. Then she met Mary Baker – Bake, for short. Bake… with her dark, knowing eyes, her young body, so alive, so full of passion and hunger. Shy Frances is drawn to Bake immediately and accepts her invitations for socializing… which leads to a certain amount of drinking and flirting. Before long, the relationship becomes much more than just a friendship – the two fall hard for each other and Frances becomes Bake’s girl. It’s not a smooth road for them, though, as Frances is married… still living at home with Bill and her son. With Bake’s encouragement, Frances regains strength as an individual and finds employment outside of the home. The independence she gains as a result of having her own money does wonders for Frances. For the first time in her life, she feels confident and courageous – strong enough, perhaps, to consider pursuing a new life for herself. Can she trust Bake's feelings for her? Will she leave Bill and her son? Can she trust Bake to stay with her if she does divorce her husband? Will our lovers fight against all odds to make their relationship survive?

Download or read book Once Upon a Time on Lesbos written by Alex G. Tsagarellis and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-11-04 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of the seventh century B.C. the rival aristocrats of Mytilene - the strongest city-state on the island of Lesbos - heading the various political factions, contended with each other for supreme power. Alcaeus, the poet, and his elder brother, bellicose Antimenidas, joined forces with Phanias and Pittacus and made plans to overthrow Myrsilus, who had risen to power with the support of the middle class, the merchants and marines. Their conspiracy was betrayed and everyone but Pittacus, who changed sides at the very last moment and became the prime target of Alcaeus' libels, had to flee into exile, to inland Pyrrha. Young Sappho, who was their contemporary, and whose political sympathies lay with Alcaeus, followed them, too. This novel relates their adventures from that point on. Historical information available with regard to the protagonists, as well as ideas and feelings depicted in their poetry and dicta preserved to this day, are the basic elements which intertwine with fiction in the effort to achieve successful restructuring of their time and life in an era which set the foundations for Greece's Golden Age. The outcome is an exciting story full of passion, bravery, love, friendship, and of unparalleled achievements.
Download or read book Lesbos Narcissus and Paulos written by Hal Brunson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-11 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homosexuality and the Greek New Testament: What Does the Bible Really Teach? is perhaps the most exhaustive and thorough analysis of homosexuality ever written from the perspective of the New Testament. This work examines every New Testament text through exhaustive theological and linguistic analysis, leaving no scripture untouched, no stone unturned about homosexuality in the New Testament. Dr. Brunson's book explores homosexuality as a Divine abandonment, focusing especially upon St. Paul's description of homosexuality in Romans 1. Although primarily focused upon the Greek text of the New Testament, the book also examines every text dealing with homosexuality in the Septuagint as well; however, the book has been written to be easily accessible to the average reader, footnoting the technical aspects of Greek for appropriate scholarly consideration. The book is available immediately through any bookstore.
