We did everything together. I’d always adored Jettie. I’d always felt closer to her than anybody else. So when she touches my thigh and sparks fly in my chest and my heart flutters like mad... I don’t know what to do. I don’t know what I’m feeling. I just know that I want to be close to my best friend. Closer than I’ve been to anyone ever. Is this a mistake? * Found Again She changed my life. She was the most beautiful girl. She stole my heart. I was a fool to think it would last. I was a fool to think that she would stay. She was the only person I ever trusted. She was the only person I ever loved. The only person who could make me feel white-hot ecstasy. But I moved on, and I stopped thinking about her. Until she came back. Turned me upside down and inside out. I don't know if I can do this. I don't know if I'm ready for this. She wants a second chance... ...and, God, I want to give it to her. But I don't know if I can open my heart one more time... * Just Friends I never thought I’d find a guy. Online dating? What a scam. Either you’re in mortal danger, or all the guy wants is some plastic doll. But if you’re a real woman? Well, good luck. My hopes were dwindling. But there was something else… something more to my chronic condition of singleness. I didn’t know if I actually wanted a guy. The more I thought about it, the less sure I was. And the more I talked about it with my best friend, Annabelle, the more I started to think about her in ways I shouldn’t. She’s my friend… my closest friend. And yet when I close my eyes at night, I imagine her sharing my bed with me. But this could never be… I’m not a lesbian. I’m not into girls. And Annabelle and I? Well… we’re just friends? Right?

Book excerpt: Opposites attract when a rancher is stranded in the mountains with a handsome stranger on holiday in this sexy gay romance. Welcome to Clean Slate Ranch: Home of tight jeans, cowboy boots, and rough trails. For some men, it’s a fantasy come true. Mack Garrett loves the rolling hills surrounding his Northern California dude ranch. Leading vacationers on horse trails with his two best friends is enough—romance is definitely not in the cards. When a sexy tourist shows up at Clean Slate, he’s as far from Mack’s type as can be. So why is the handsome city slicker so far under his skin in less than a day? Roughing it in the middle of nowhere isn’t anywhere near Wes Bentley’s idea of fun. Then he lays eyes on the gruffest, hottest papa bear he’s ever seen. But Mack is as hard to pin down as he looks—distant, sharp-tongued, and in desperate need of a shave. Until a campout gone wrong strands both men in the mountains with nothing to do but get to know each other. Mack intends to keep his closely guarded heart out of Wes’s very talented hands. But for a seven-day cowboy, Wes is packing some long-term possibility. The cold country air can do wonders for bringing bodies together—but it will take more than that to bridge the distance between two men whose lives are worlds apart. “[A] passionate, trope-heavy romance . . . scintillating romantic tension and steamy sex scenes.” —Publishers Weekly on Hard Ride

Download or read book The Book of More Delights written by Ross Gay and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From bestselling author of The Book of Delights and award-winning poet, a book of lyrical mini-essays celebrating the everyday that will inspire readers to rediscover the joys in the world around us. In Ross Gay’s new collection of small, daily wonders, again written over the course of a year, one of America’s most original voices continues his ongoing investigation of delight. For Gay, what delights us is what connects us, what gives us meaning, from the joy of hearing a nostalgic song blasting from a passing car to the pleasure of refusing the “nefarious” scannable QR code menus, from the tiny dog he fell hard for to his mother baking a dozen kinds of cookies for her grandchildren. As always, Gay revels in the natural world—sweet potatoes being harvested, a hummingbird carousing in the beebalm, a sunflower growing out of a wall around the cemetery, the shared bounty from a neighbor’s fig tree—and the trillion mysterious ways this glorious earth delights us. The Book of (More) Delights is a volume to savor and share.

Download or read book Wild Beauty written by Anna-Marie McLemore and published by Feiwel and Friends. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No one does magical realism quite like McLemore, and this third novel, laced with slow-burning suspense, folklore, romance, and spun together with exquisite, luxuriant prose, proves it., Sheer magic: fierce, bright, and blazing with possibility."-- Booklist (starred) Love grows such strange things. Anna-Marie McLemore's debut novel The Weight of Feathers garnered fabulous reviews and was a finalist for the prestigious YALSA Morris Award, and her second novel, When the Moon was Ours, was longlisted for the 2016 National Book Award for Young People's Literature. Now, in Wild Beauty, McLemore introduces a spellbinding setting and two characters who are drawn together by fate--and pulled apart by reality. For nearly a century, the Nomeolvides women have tended the grounds of La Pradera, the lush estate gardens that enchant guests from around the world. They've also hidden a tragic legacy: if they fall in love too deeply, their lovers vanish. But then, after generations of vanishings, a strange boy appears in the gardens. The boy is a mystery to Estrella, the Nomeolvides girl who finds him, and to her family, but he's even more a mystery to himself; he knows nothing more about who he is or where he came from than his first name. As Estrella tries to help Fel piece together his unknown past, La Pradera leads them to secrets as dangerous as they are magical in this stunning exploration of love, loss, and family.

Download or read book Queer Cowboys written by C. Packard and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do the earliest representations of cowboy-figures symbolizing the highest ideals of manhood in American culture exclude male-female desire while promoting homosocial and homoerotic bonds? Evidence from the best-known Western writers and artists of the post-Civil War period - Owen Wister, Mark Twain, Frederic Remington, George Catlin - as well as now-forgotten writers, illustrators, and photographers, suggest that in the period before the word 'homosexual' and its synonyms were invented, same-sex intimacy and erotic admiration were key aspects of a masculine code. These males-only clubs of journalists, cowboys, miners, Indian vaqueros defined themselves by excluding femininity and the cloying ills of domesticity, while embracing what Roosevelt called 'strenuous living' with other bachelors in the relative 'purity' of wilderness conditions. Queer Cowboys recovers this forgotten culture of exclusively masculine, sometimes erotic, and often intimate camaraderie in fiction, photographs, illustrations, song lyrics, historical ephemera, and theatrical performances.

I figured it was them… Until I met her… Anna. She changed my world. The moment I saw her, I felt an insane attraction toward her. I couldn’t explain it. She made me blush, and she made me hot… I knew I had to see her again. I thought we were just going to be friends. I didn’t even understand what I was feeling… and on chance I was actually a lesbian, there was no way she could be, too. Coincidences like that don’t happen. So when she asks me if I’ve ever kissed a girl, I’m stunned into silence. And when she kisses me, I’m launched into orbit. I never thought during the summer before college, I’d fall in love. I never thought it would be with another girl. And I never thought I’d want to come out to the world… * A Love Of Cliches I know I must seem like a cliché… I’ve spent my whole life thinking one way. And now I’m suddenly thinking the other… I thought I knew who I was, and what I wanted. My boyfriend was a jerk, so we broke up. I thought I’d find another. I never thought that I’d find a girl. I never thought I’d want a girl. But here I am, after meeting Daisy, and I’m spellbound by her. Starstruck by her. She makes me warm inside, makes me laugh. I could watch her just be herself for hours, days, weeks, months… years. I still don’t know if I’m a lesbian or not. All I know is that I’m falling in love with a girl… And I don’t know if she loves me back. * Something New After a bad breakup with her boyfriend, Brittany finds herself seeking solace at a lesbian bar, where she plans to drown her sorrows.
