Summary

Pierre Choderlos de Laclos' 'Dangerous Liaisons' is a gripping epistolary novel that delves into the intricate web of deceptive seduction and manipulation among the French aristocracy in the 18th century. Written in a series of letters exchanged between the main characters, the book explores themes of power, love, and betrayal. Laclos' literary style is elegant and sophisticated, showcasing his keen understanding of human psychology and social dynamics. The novel is considered a classic of French literature and a prime example of the libertine novel genre, highlighting the vices and follies of the decadent elite. The book's scandalous content and exploration of moral ambiguity make it a captivating read that continues to fascinate readers to this day. Pierre Choderlos de Laclos, a French military officer and writer, drew on his own experiences in the aristocratic society to craft this provocative tale of manipulation and desire. As a keen observer of human behavior, Laclos skillfully weaves a compelling narrative that exposes the darker side of love and lust, leaving readers questioning the true nature of relationships and power dynamics. I highly recommend 'Dangerous Liaisons' to anyone interested in exploring the complexities of human nature and the seductive allure of forbidden desires.

    Liam loves his life as a linguist and trader on the Rownt homeworld, but he has ignored his heart and sexual needs for years. After escaping the horrors of war, he wants a boring life. He won't risk letting anyone come too close because he won't risk letting anyone see his deeply submissive nature. For him, submission comes with pain. Life burned that lesson into his soul from a young age. 
This fear keeps him from noticing that the Rownt trader Ondry cares for him. Ondry may not understand humans, but he recognizes a wounded soul, and his need to protect Liam is quickly outpacing his common sense. They may have laws, culture, and incompatible genitalia in their way, but Ondry knows that he can find a way to overcome all that if he can just overcome the ghosts of Liam's past. Only then can he take possession of a man he has grown to respect.

    Note to self: dumping cocktails into a man’s lap does not count as a meet cute. 
Accidentally throwing a jug of Sex on the Beach onto the hottest guy at drag brunch was not how I wanted to start my performance, and forgetting to ask for his name was the cherry on top. 
But when he finds me online and invites me out for drinks, it seems like my chaotic shenanigans might have worked out for once. Falling into bed with West is easy, but balancing a gorgeous, rugby player boyfriend with a day job and drag is harder than dancing in eight inch heels. 
And when my participation in a local drag story hour draws the ire of certain locals, it feels like everything might fall apart. West doesn’t understand why I won’t step down, but I’ve never been afraid of being myself. 
Now I just need West to stand beside me. Because he’s the only man who’s ever loved me as Rory and Bubblegum Galaxy, and I won’t let that slip away. 
You can call me a drama queen, but you’ll never dull my sparkle. 
Content Warning: This novel contains an attempted homophobic attack, the use of slurs and violent language.
