Sinopse

A New York City hustler with a special gift for reeling in customers, Apollo, 'a pale skinned mulatto with a mournful mouth' strips at a gay sex theatre in Times Square. He is one of the most seductive and disturbing creations in recent American fiction. Unflinchingly describing the lives of hustlers, pimps, drug-addicts and transsexuals in 1990s Times Square, User speaks with the authentic voice of characters from the edge. This is a world filled with stark, hypnotic eroticism and mined with terrors peculiar to the subterranean city in the hours after midnight.  A Queer Classic published in the UK and Australia for the first time. By the bestselling author of The Romanian, winner of the Prix de France.  User is unmistakably brilliant' Los Angeles Times. 'Impressive, startling and eerie...hypnotically descriptive and powerfully rhythmic' Kirkus. 'User is a stunning novel. I both love and respect it even though parts of it challenge and disturb me' Matt Bates.

    A marriage alliance to end a war, that was the plan. Someone doesn't want that alliance to happen.
    
    Omega prince Lashar of Echera would do anything to protect his people, even marry enemy prince Ardan and live in a nation where omegas are regarded as inferior. But on the way to the wedding, his party is attacked and only Lashar escapes into the forest, desperate to warn his king.
    
    To end the war, alpha prince Ardan of Firol agreed to marry a foreigner and learn the ways of his country. But on the way to the wedding his messengers vanish, and no one appears at the rendezvous. He finds Lashar, but soon after another attack leaves the two princes alone in the woods. Ardan hoped his match would be tolerable. He wasn't expecting Lashar to fill him with admiration, and desire.
    
    With no help and only one cloak for warmth, Ardan and Lashar must rely on each other. But how can they trust each other when they both suspect the other's family of betrayal? Can peace, and their growing love, be saved?

    Theo Kramer has spent most of his freshman year at Seabreeze State struggling to be the school's biggest screw-up: late nights trying to hook up with down low frat boys at keg parties, even later mornings skipping classes, but now he's back on track: literally running around the campus intramural track to get his old mojo back and start fresh, one stumbling, hungover step at a time. When he literally runs into a long, lean, track star machine, Theo can't help but feel his heart race, and not just from getting back in shape!
    Henry Chambers has just been dropped from the track team, for hitting on the coach's son, no less. Disgraced, disgusted with himself, and downtrodden, he seeks solace by running around the only track he's allowed on these days: the intramural one bordering the freshman dorms. When a big lug stumbles into him one morning, smelling like a keg but looking like sex on legs, Henry can't resist the former running back's charms, or the offer to run with him for the rest of the semester.
    But will their newfound attraction buy the happily ever after both boys have been chasing since heading to college? Or is it just another mirage on the hot, dusty track ahead, always out of reach?

    It's 2016, a trepidatious election year, and choices have to be made about the direction of the nation and in our personal lives. Caught in this political and cultural tug of war are Jamie Drexler, an apolitical nationally syndicated cartoonist, and Ben Montgomery, a paid political operative. From the moment they first meet on a frosty afternoon in Charlottesville, Virginia, their relationship roars from a one-night stand into an example that politics makes strange bedfellows.
    Their personal-is-the-political revolution emerges the first night they sleep together in which their prior top/bottom roles are reversed and, much to each other's surprise, welcomed and enjoyed. Then, alone in his condo, Jamie takes the risk of a lifetime and sets aside an unfinished cartoon to draw, ink, and frame a very special Christmas gift for Ben. As the primary season continues from Iowa to New Hampshire and eventually into Virginia, they celebrate by sharing and reciprocating the results by stuffing their own ballot boxes. 
    When their relationship intensifies, will Jamie and Ben grow more comfortable in their own skins and allow their vulnerabilities to ignite a revolution of the heart?

    I'm a nerdy, neurodivergent librarian who lives a quiet life in the mountains. While out birdwatching one day, I stumble upon a giant of a mountain man bathing in the lake. 
     
     
     
    Naked. 
     
     
     
    I manage to run away, hoping he didn't see me. 
     
     
     
    And then he shows up at my library. Something about him lures me in. Sure, he's tall, bearded, and insanely gorgeous, but there's a gentle curiosity in his eyes. And when he looks at me, it's like he's trying to understand me . . .  
     
     
     
    Orrrr maybe I'm imagining it. 
     
     
     
    Yeah, that's probably it. I mean, why would a handsome, barrel-chested lumberjack like Branum be interested in a Mr. Plain and Boring like me? 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
