Sinopse

Have you ever wondered what the life of an actor is like? Piecing together a career of short gigs and long ones with all the uncertainty in between. Is there room for a personal life with all that uncertainty?
Meet Jake Myers, aspiring actor and teacher. Having just finished college, he's anxious to see where his career takes him. Young, good looking, and determined, he's also hoping to find someone special along the way. Can he find the man of his dreams and put down roots in spite of all the places his career takes him? 
From the swamps of Florida to Washington DC to Broadway, then across the country to the wildfires of Colorado and the beaches of the Pacific, Jake meets a variety of men, each one totally different, in his search for "the one." But will his career have to take precedence? Or will he finally be able to live a life that's a perfect blend of both?

A Soldier's Horizon

T.A. Creech

Selati, a big construct forced to work in the cobalt mines of Ilmare, is terrified of the overseers. Danger dogs his every breath, somehow the leader of his ragged work crew, and he finally has enough when the mine itself almost kills him. Humans or no humans, he refuses to let his crew die down in the dark. As his crew takes their stand in their bid for freedom, rescue comes. Freedom in the light and a whole new life awaits.
It's a duty Aleledai takes great pride in, saving his fellow Caniean. Humans might have created them to mine and nothing more, but like all things, the Caniean are not the mindless beasts humans intended to work to death for resources. Selati's rescue is probably his greatest accomplishment, because something about this one becomes everything Aleledai was missing, that made freedom perfect. 
Humans don't let go of their things easily, though and war is coming, no matter what the Caniean want. The price of freedom is always high. Aleledai only hopes the price isn't everything he's found worth living for.

Rent Boy

Gary Indiana

A noir tour-de-force set in the world of hustlers from "one of America's darkest and funniest chroniclers." (The Guardian) 
 
 
 
It's New York City, 1981, and everyone wants to be at the Emerson Club, from Cindy Crawford to Cindy Adams; from Famous Roger, one-time lion of the talk shows, to Sandy Miller, the "downtown" writer with the tattoos and the leather; from Lauren Hutton to the art star who does the thing with the broken plates. Everyone, that is, except Danny. Danny just works there, waiting tables to put himself through architecture school, turning tricks on the side. And when he's not on the clock, he's recording the sexual, aesthetic, and financial transactions that make up his life, in gruesome detail. But even a clever boy like Danny can wind up on the menu. Blinded by love for his fellow rent boy, Chip—as gorgeous as he is reckless—Danny is about to learn that there's more than one way to turn your body into cash, and that cynicism is no defense when the real scalpels come out. A gimlet-eyed crime novel with an inventively filthy mind, Rent Boy is Gary Indiana at his most outrageous—and his best.

The Daddies

Kimberly Dark

A love letter to masculinity, and an indictment of patriarchy. 
How do you invest in a relationship built on deception, then break up without destroying everything? Is it possible to leave love intact but transformed? 
THE DADDIES is a story about love and grief – how it hurts to change, even when change is needed. Using hybrid narrative, magical realism and pop-culture analysis, THE DADDIES offers a dark love letter to masculinity told as a lesbian leather-Daddy love story. The story follows a break-up between adults, lovers, but the metanarrative is about our cultural need to break-up with patriarchy, while still holding onto love for masculinity. THE DADDIES is about the pain of change, an unflinching tour through the pleasures and horrors of domination.
