Red love

A. Kollontai

Beschreibung

In "Red Love," A. Kollontai presents a powerful exploration of love, desire, and sexual politics in the context of early Soviet society. The narrative intertwines personal relationships with the socio-political upheaval of the time, employing a unique style that blends autobiography with fervent ideological discourse. Kollontai's prose is rich with emotional nuance, deftly capturing the complexities of human intimacy against the backdrop of revolutionary change, making her work both a personal testament and a radical manifesto for women's liberation and sexual autonomy. A prominent figure in the Russian feminist movement and a key architect of Soviet social policy, A. Kollontai's life experiences profoundly inform her writing. Her advocacy for women's rights and her involvement in the Bolshevik Party shape her views on love and partnership, which she articulates with both fervor and insight in "Red Love." As one of the first women appointed to a ministerial position in Russia, her perspective reflects the struggles and aspirations of women during a time of social transformation. Readers interested in feminism, revolutionary thought, and the intersections of personal and political life will find "Red Love" to be an essential addition to their literary exploration. Kollontai's eloquent and courageous voice resonates, offering timeless insights into the nature of love and its potential to inspire social change.

Making Waves -...

Harper Robson

Penn  
I'm the wild friend. The social butterfly who always knows where to find the party (hint: it's usually at my place). After getting my heart stomped on, I end up with a pair of non-refundable tickets for a super-luxurious cruise vacation. The thought of going solo makes me want to puke, but the only person available to come with me is the one guy who's completely unimpressed by my trust-fund lifestyle and wild antics. 
Hunter 
Penn and I have nothing in common. The guy's never even had a job, while my career is one of my top priorities. He's into glitzy parties, designer clothes, and fancy cars, while I'm more comfortable behind my keyboard writing code, or hitting the neighborhood pub with our friends for a beer. Sharing a room with the guy for an entire week is going to be one helluva challenge. 
Making Waves is a spicy, frenemies-to-lovers, tropical vacation M/M romance. It features only one bed, loads of beachy shenanigans, friends who are family, and plenty of proof that opposites do, in fact, attract.

Semi-Rejected Life - MM Wolf...

Blake R. Wolfe

When an unexpected flame ignites between me and a rogue wolf, things get hot and heavy fast. It’s my last summer of freedom before I take over the pack back home, and he’s the perfect guy, but he can’t come home with me.
River
I coast into town on fumes with nothing but my surfboard and the clothes on my back. A free-spirited Alpha wolf isn’t the norm, but my father gave me one last summer to goof off before I take over the pack, and Shifter Grove is my last stop. However, I didn’t expect to literally collide with Vincent going over my first wave.
The moment I set eyes on all that tanned skin and his infectious smile, I’m hooked. He’s sweet and hot, just the way I like my summer flings, and we’re in bed before I know anything about him. But I never expected to be spilling my secrets to him. Before I know it, he’s making me feel things I’ve never felt before, and my time in Shifter Grove is quickly coming to an end. My father has arranged a mate for me back home, and both of them are expecting me.
Vincent
A dip in the lake nearly turns into a hospital trip as River literally runs me over with his surfboard. But somehow, I find myself unbothered by this charming Alpha wolf. He’s got a wonderful laugh, and the way he looks at me makes my skin tingle with excitement. It’s almost too easy to fall into bed with him.
River and I agree that this is just a fling. He has a pack to lead back home. Even if I’m convinced he’s my mate, he can’t stay, and I can’t go with him. I do everything I can to resist falling for this perfect wolf. But one thing is certain. When River leaves, he’ll take my heart with him.
Tropes: standalone, arranged marriage, gay for you, fated mate, rejected mate, small town, possessive/jealousy, free spirit, alpha wolf, found family, strict roles, and HEA.
