Book Description
ClarkI see myself as mature and responsible for a twenty-four-year-old-I have a steady job, a comfortable apartment, and eventually I'll find the right guy to settle down with. Some might find this boring, but at least I know what I want. That is, until reconnecting with a childhood companion flips my preconceived notions upside down. Skylar was my first real friend-my first crush too-and twelve years later, he's still the same gorgeous and charismatic free spirit. I'm easily sucked back into his orbit, my protests futile when it comes to his amusingly harebrained ideas. I can't let myself fall for him, though, because I'm searching for forever and he only wants casual.SkylarIf you're looking for a good time, I'm your guy. I love hookups, shaking my booty at the club, and having fun. I've seen how love can hurt and have mended too many broken hearts to risk my own.Still, having Clark back in my life makes me feel grounded...and sort of mushy inside. It's not only because his chunky glasses turn him into an adorably hot Clark Kent. It's also how he makes me feel like I can be more. Which is why hooking up with him is a bad idea. But resisting him becomes impossible, and before I know it, each touch, kiss, and night spent together only makes me crave more.We want different things, so there's no way this will last. But Clark makes me consider breaking my rules and trying this boyfriend stuff for real. What's a guy to do when his best friend steals the heart he's afraid to give? I guess it comes down to potentially hurting him, or losing the only guy I've ever really wanted. Pretty wild, right?

Since he's never been with a guy, and I'm a virgin, we're setting the pace together, learning what we like, one bone-melting touch at a time.JakeMy childhood was rocky, with an abusive father and a mother I needed to protect.

With my urge to protect and Seth's desire to fly, we'll have to strike the right balance, but when we do, the results will be pretty sweet.**Trigger warning: This book contains mention of unwanted sexual advances/touching.

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
This edited collection is the first book to offer a wide-ranging examination of the interface between American independent film and a converged television landscape that consists of terrestrial broadcasters, cable networks and streaming providers, in which independent film and television intersect in complex, multifaceted and creative ways. The book covers the long history of continuities and connections between the two sectors, as seen in the activities of PBS, HBO or Sundance. It considers the movement of filmmakers between indie film and TV such as Steven Soderbergh, Rian Johnson, the Duplass brothers, Joe Swanberg, Lynn Shelton and Gregg Araki; details the confluence of aesthetic and thematic elements seen in shows such as Girls, Breaking Bad, Master of None, or Glow; points to a shared interest in regional sensibilities evident in shows like One Mississippi or Fargo; and makes the case for documentaries and web series as significant entities in this domain. Collectively, the book builds a compelling picture of indie TV as a significant feature of US screen entertainment in the 21st Century. This interdisciplinary landmark volume will be a go-to reference for students and scholars of Television Studies, Film Studies and Media Studies.
