    Desire like this wasn’t in the script... Heart of Fame, Book 3. Small-screen sex symbol Chris Huntley is on the fast track to becoming the next big action-blockbuster movie star. When his latest movie takes him to Australia for a red-carpet premiere, he thinks he’s ready for anything. But nothing could have prepared him for his raw, carnal response to his Aussie bodyguard. Sexual attraction to a man is a first for Chris. Now he realizes why his relationships with women have never felt quite...complete. Liev Reynolds is comfortable with his bisexuality, but his attraction to Chris is an inconvenience he must ignore. For starters, there’s his professional ethics. Then there’s the long trail of female broken hearts in Chris’s wake. 
    Hard as they both try to keep their minds on their jobs, desire and a little matchmaking tip them over the edge. But Hollywood endings aren’t real life. And when the truth leaks out, their careers aren’t the only collateral damage. 
    Warning: A hunky Hollywood sex symbol. A smoldering, stubborn Australian. A desire so powerful it cannot be denied. A kiss. And a photograph. This isn’t your normal boy-meets-boy story.

    Two women. Two swords. One victor. 
    An action-packed tale that exposes the brutal underside of Imperial Rome, Sword of the Gladiatrix brings to life unforgettable characters and exotic settings. From the far edges of the Empire, two women come to battle on the hot sands of the arena in Nero's Rome: Afra, scout and beast master to the Queen of Kush; and Cinnia, warrior-bard and companion to Queen Boudica of the British Iceni. Enslaved, forced to fight for their lives and the Romans' pleasure; they seek to replace lost friendship, love, and family in each other's arms. But the Roman arena offers only two futures: the Gate of Life for the victors or the Gate of Death for the losers.

    A daring foray into the groundbreaking genre of autobiographical fiction
     
    Sad Old Faggot is the absorbing, sometimes embarrassing, always entertaining story of a lonely, self-obsessed, selfish, deluded, impotent 62-year-old gay man named Sky Gilbert who — despite his best intentions — cannot help but become a stereotype.
     
    Sky’s main claim to fame is founding Buddies in Bad Times Theatre in 1979. But since leaving Buddies, he’s fallen on hard times. Sky Gilbert is no longer even remotely famous. He has to fight off his own bitterness as audiences for his plays steadily dwindle. Theatre people dismiss his work as old news and point to the fact that he teaches at the University of Guelph as proof: his descent into academia clearly signals his failure as an artist.
     
    All along the way, the book questions our truths and celebrates their mutability. What is really true about each of us? What do we actually know about ourselves? And how much, it asks, of our own personal truth is based on fact — and how much is rooted in fiction?

    Powerful women meet in a private club and against the dark suede décor, catch up over a glass or two of Champagne. Would you drain your flute and go in for the kill? Or would you watch and wait your turn? What exactly would Jess do with all those bubbles? She’s looking for an excuse to cut loose. Fortunately, Sarah has something in mind. But who is leading on who? Join these liberated ladies and discover where exactly the blonde in the red leather bra and knickers would like to end up.  Meanwhile the last train home becomes a distant memory...This erotic story is taken from the first Cliterotica anthology, a collection of shorts featuring modern women who revel in their lusts and desires; some seek to dominate, while others wish to be dominated themselves. From the members’ clubs of London to private rooms in the suburbs, the Cliterotica collection takes us on a journey through fantasy and fetish, sex and sensuality.This audio presentation contains extreme language and intense graphic scenes of a highly sexual nature; it is therefore suitable only for a mature, open-minded audience.
