Summary

This is John Cleland's controversial 1749 novel, “Memoirs of Fanny Hill”. John Cleland (1709 – 1789) was an English novelist most famous for writing “Fanny Hill: or, the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure”. Other notable works by this author include: “Memoirs of a Coxcomb” (1751), “The Surprises of Love” (1764), and “The Woman of Honour” (1768). This book was undertaken by Cleland while he was incarcerated in in Fleet Prison due to an unpaid debt. The novel was published in two instalments, in November 1748 and February 1749. He was released from prison in March of that year. However, in November 1749, Cleland was once more arrested, as were the publishers and the printer of “Fanny Hill”. He himself said that he wished that the book be "buried and forgot". The book was then officially withdrawn, and not legally published again for more than a hundred years. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in vintage erotic literature, and it would make for a worthy addition to allied collections. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality, edition complete with the original text and artwork.

    Michael closed his eyes and took a deep breath, reminding himself for the umpteenth time this was no big deal. He’d stood in the middle of heated boardrooms and barked out orders. He had stared down presidents of multi-billion-dollar corporations. Certainly, he could do this. At least, he was fairly certain he could do this.
    
    He’d been a bachelor, living on his own his entire life. Give him a 24-year-old girl, and he could tell you - or gladly show you - exactly what to do with one of them. But a four-year-old? They’re all tutus and princesses, and everything else he had absolutely no idea what to do with.
    
    And yet, in less than five minutes, he was going to be a father. Well, apparently he’d been one for about four years now, but since he’d had no idea he had a child until two days ago, he was wading into uncharted territory here.
    
    The car slowed, and he glanced down at the documents in his hand one last time, the documents detailing the guardianship will of Lisa Blake, a woman he hadn’t seen in years - about five years, actually. In all that time, she hadn’t once thought to tell him he had a daughter? Now, he was suddenly supposed to swoop in and take over where she’d left off? What the hell did he know about raising a child? About as much as he knew about tutus and princesses.
    
    Still, he was a quick learner. How difficult could it be? In the past 48 hours, he had managed to transform his house into a child-friendly environment, turn one of the guest bedrooms into every little girl’s dream room - at least according to the decorator - and purchase every single toy in the Young Learner’s catalog. What more could a little girl want?
    
    His driver opened the car door and he stepped out in front of an upscale, two-story house. This was it. He strode headlong for the front door, not the kind of guy to hesitate when there was a job to be done. The door opened before he reached the top step of the porch and he nodded to the middle-aged man there with spectacles and a receding hairline.
    
    "Good morning, Mr. Chase," the man greeted in a deep voice that contrasted sharply with his short, skinny frame.
    
    He nodded and shook the hand the man extended. In truth, he couldn’t remember the lawyer’s name...An Author's Republic audio production.

    Asa Mulvaney is half of a psychopathic whole. He and his twin brother live together, party together…kill together. In the Mulvaney family, murder is the family business and business is good. So, when an experiment separates Asa and his brother, Asa is forced to navigate the world on his own for the first time in his life. 
    Zane Scott is a small-time crime blogger, but he dreams of a byline in a major paper and his suspicions surrounding Thomas Mulvaney are about to make that dream a reality. When an invitation to a boring fundraiser lands him not beside Thomas, as he had hoped, but Asa Mulvaney, they share an intensely passionate encounter that leaves Zane trapped in a cage of his own making. 
    At a nearby college, a cluster of suicides isn’t what it seems. When Asa’s father asks him to look into it, he sees the perfect opportunity to exploit his little crime reporter and make him fall in line. And Asa needs him to fall in line. Zane is suspicious of Asa’s motives and half-convinced he’s dead either way, but he won’t say no to a chance to peek behind the Mulvaney family curtains. 
    As the two unravel a sinister plot, Asa’s obsession with Zane grows and Zane finds being Asa’s sole focus outweighs almost anything, maybe even his career—which is good for Asa because loving a Mulvaney is a full-time job. Can he convince Zane that he’s worth navigating a family of psychopaths and tolerating an almost too close for comfort twin? Or will Zane learn the hard way that the Mulvaney boys always get what they want? Always.

    Warning: Explicit Content. An ENF Submissive Female Story of Intense Humiliation: "The Lucky Gyno Clinic Custodian" Series. 
      
    For a simple janitor, Forrest Franklin is a pretty smart guy. He has just landed himself a new job…at a woman’s health clinic! This dirty-minded fella figures he’ll just keep his eyes open and maybe catch a glimpse of a cute young lady in a johnnie once in a while. That sure would keep him whistling while he works! Well, as sweet luck would have it, this hard-working pervert is about to get way more than he bargained for when one of the doctors, the less-than-ethical Marty Thompson, asks for Forrest’s help—right in the exam room! And all Forrest has to do in exchange for that naughty privilege is a bit of handyman work at the doc’s house. 
      
    Forrest is on cloud nine! He’ll be performing a complete physical for a woman about to leave for Korea to adopt a baby! 
      
    Well, that’s strange—Forrest’s sister-in-law Krissy is traveling to Korea in two days to adopt a baby and—oh, God—wait a minute! It is his sister-in-law who Dr. Thompson needs Forrest to examine! Talk about hitting the jackpot! Forrest has been lusting after his lucky brother’s wife for twelve years. Her sweet disposition, beautiful face, and succulent body are to die for—and Forrest nearly does die when he walks into the exam room and finds her sitting there in nothing but a paper gown! 
      
    And as awkward as this situation is, it becomes even more so when both Forrest and Krissy consider what a detached, unaffectionate workaholic Krissy’s husband has become. Krissy has been lonely, unadored, and untouched by this dullard for a long time now. Well, maybe her surprise “doctor” could help to alleviate some of her misery with a bit of supplemental care. Then, maybe being embarrassed to the limits of her sanity won’t be so bad after all!
