Book Year of the Chick series  Romantic Comedy boxed set

Download or read book Year of the Chick series Romantic Comedy boxed set written by Romi Moondi and published by Romi Moondi. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [NOTE: each novel in the boxed set is about 74,000 words for a total of approximately 850 printed pages] This three-book romantic comedy series is all about starting from nowhere (no dating skills, no passion for a corporate job, low self-esteem), and undergoing a big transformation. The years go on, the landscapes change, and all along our heroine genuinely grows, as she moves past failures, achieves personal goals, becomes a better friend, and even gets the chance to fall in love. More specifically, there's Internet romance (or obsession? Fine line...), there's a meeting with the right guy at the wrong time, there's long-distance romance turmoil, and there's a life-changing journey to a totally different place. The stories are told in a bold narrative with punchy dialogue, to give this series a little more edge than your typical chicklit books. Throughout the series there's also an underlying tension caused by culture clash, when a strict Indian background brings up totally unpleasant scenarios (pressure to get married, pressure to get an ARRANGED marriage...you get the drift). ---------------------------------- LENGTH: each romantic comedy is a full-length novel of about 74,000 words (or between 280-285 printed pages each) DISCLAIMER: the books contain occasional profanities and mild sexual references

Download or read book Year of the Chick written by Romi Moondi and published by Romi Moondi. This book was released on 2014-04-21 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Book 1 in the "Year of the Chick" series. There's a bit of a cliffhanger to end this book, but the sequel addresses any unanswered questions] An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that's just the first two chapters. In "Year of the Chick," Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband (a seemingly absurd concept that's the norm in many cultures). To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It's the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that's exactly what happens to her. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play. From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that's when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that's not as creepy as "To Catch a Predator"? Time will tell in the "year of the chick," a twelve-month quest to find love. Tick-tock. --------------------------------------------- "Year of the Chick" is book 1 in a series, and the sequel "Last-Minute Love" is available now!

Book Drag Queens at the 801 Cabaret

Download or read book Drag Queens at the 801 Cabaret written by Leila J. Rupp and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-10-02 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's Saturday night in Key West and the Girlie Show is about to begin at the 801 Cabaret. The girls have been outside on the sidewalk all evening, seducing passersby into coming in for the show. The club itself is packed tonight and smoke has filled the room. When the lights finally go down, statuesque blonds and stunning brunettes sporting black leather miniskirts, stiletto heels, and see-through lingerie take the stage. En Vogue's "Free Your Mind" blares on the house stereo. The crowd roars in approval. In this lively book, Leila J. Rupp and Verta Taylor take us on an entertaining tour through one of America's most overlooked subcultures: the world of the drag queen. They offer a penetrating glimpse into the lives of the 801 Girls, the troupe of queens who perform nightly at the 801 Cabaret for tourists and locals. Weaving together their fascinating life stories, their lavish costumes and eclectic music, their flamboyance and bitchiness, and their bawdy exchanges with one another and their audiences, the authors explore how drag queens smash the boundaries between gay and straight, man and woman, to make people think more deeply and realistically about sex and gender in America today. They also consider how the queens create a space that encourages camaraderie and acceptance among everyday people, no matter what their sexual preferences might be. Based on countless interviews with more than a dozen drag queens, more than three years of attendance at their outrageous performances, and even the authors' participation in the shows themselves, Drag Queens at the 801 Cabaret is a witty and poignant portrait of gay life and culture. When they said life is a cabaret, they clearly meant the 801.

Book excerpt: There’s a magnetic attraction when a happy-go-lucky gig worker agrees to a fake relationship with a rich, uptight New Yorker in this steamy romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Samantha Young. Star Shine Meadows is all about freedom, thanks to the hippie parents who raised her. Juggling her jobs as a professional costume character actor and a line sitter, she believes in no expectations, no stressful ambitions, and no-strings-attached relationships. So when she meets a birthday girl’s grumpy uncle while working a princess party, she can’t help but needle him. She’ll never see him again, and honestly, he's pretty hot. Rafe Whitman may be a veterinarian with a great bedside manner, but that doesn’t mean his patience extends to anyone with opposable thumbs. His family will not stop nagging him about finding “the one,” so when he runs into obnoxiously cheery Star again, he makes her an offer: He’ll pay her more than she would make doing her odd jobs if she’ll pretend to be his girlfriend at family gatherings. She can stop sitting in line waiting for someone else’s new phone, and he’ll get his family off his back. When the tension between them heats to a breaking point, Star’s desire for "no strings" is tested against Rafe’s staunch stability. They say opposites attract, after all....
