The problem was, she had been his best friend, too. So leaving home still left him feeling like he'd cut his heart out and left it lying on the ground. For years, he felt like the cold, heartless bastard many people called him. He could kill a man without batting an eye, but being part of the Marine's Force Recon taught him those necessary skills; It wasn't what he'd aspired to become. Whether he wanted to admit it or not, deep down, he was still the sensitive young boy who stopped to help the little girl who always fell behind, despite desperately trying to keep up to three rambunctious boys. To keep her "out of sight and out of mind," after the Marines, he relocates states away and joins the Demented Sons MC with his buddy, Hacker.Serafina Hernandez claimed Kayde as her best friend when she was only four years old, and she thought he would always be there for her.

Kayde and Sera were destined to be together, but people don't always follow the path laid out for them. Hesitation and feeling he wasn't good enough, cost him Sera once. Can Kayde take advantage of the second chance fate has handed him? Will Sera admit she loves him, or will she continue to push him away, because she feels like she loses everyone she loves?

Download or read book Reality Bites Back written by Jennifer L. Pozner and published by Seal Press. This book was released on 2010-10-19 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly every night on every major network,"unscripted" (but carefully crafted) "reality" TV shows routinely glorify retrograde stereotypes that most people would assume got left behind 35 years ago. In Reality Bites Back, media critic Jennifer L. Pozner aims a critical, analytical lens at a trend most people dismiss as harmless fluff. She deconstructs reality TV's twisted fairytales to demonstrate that far from being simple "guilty pleasures," these programs are actually guilty of fomenting gender-war ideology and significantly affecting the intellectual and political development of this generation's young viewers. She lays out the cultural biases promoted by reality TV about gender, race, class, sexuality, and consumerism, and explores how those biases shape and reflect our cultural perceptions of who we are, what we're valued for, and what we should view as "our place" in society. Smart and informative, Reality Bites Back arms readers with the tools they need to understand and challenge the stereotypes reality TV reinforces and, ultimately, to demand accountability from the corporations responsible for this contemporary cultural attack on three decades of feminist progress.

Download or read book Loudermilk written by Lucy Ives and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice, is "hilarious . . . a riotous success. Equal parts campus novel, buddy comedy and meditation on art-making under late capitalism, the novel is a hugely funny portrait of an egomaniac and his nebbish best friend" (The Washington Post). It’s the end of summer 2003. George W. Bush has recently declared the mission in Iraq accomplished, the unemployment rate is at its highest in years, and Martha Stewart has just been indicted for insider trading. Meanwhile, somewhere in the Midwest, Troy Augustus Loudermilk (fair-haired, statuesque, charismatic) and his companion Harry Rego (definitely none of those things) step out of a silver Land Cruiser and onto the campus of The Seminars, America’s most prestigious creative writing program, to which Loudermilk has recently been accepted for his excellence in poetry. Loudermilk, however, has never written a poem in his life. Wickedly entertaining, beguiling, layered, and sly, Loudermilk is a social novel for our time: a comedy of errors that deftly examines class, gender, and inheritance, and subverts our pieties about literature, authorship, art making, and the institutions that sustain them.
