Pages : 205
Book Description
Using a sample collected from Ashley Madison, this book is the result of a yearlong inquiry into women’s extramarital experiences. Ultimately, these women reject the binary proposition of marriage that assumes that either we work on our marriages and remain monogamous within them, or we break up the relationship and take up other relationships. These women conceive of an alternate solution to a marriage that is not wholly working, where their own needs are ignored, unmet, and not prioritized. Thus, the women in this study are engaging in secret defiance of the expectations of marriage and primary partnerships. This book gives voice to women’s experiences and perceptions regarding their participation in infidelity, and glimpses into the interworkings of our most intimate relationships, and the ways women negotiate marriages that fall short of their expectations.

STEAMY HOT MFM THREESOME ROMANCE COLLECTION : 3 STANDALONE BOOKS IN ONE. No cliffhanger. Guaranteed HEA. Cyborg Love All the cyborgs want is the chance to live, but they have to fight for it. Cyborgs aren’t meant to live. They’re monsters, created by the Government to fight. When they went wrong, they should have been killed there and then... Eve hates the cyborg army because they killed her brother. She doesn’t care that they’ve got a consciousness; she doesn't consider them human. They shouldn’t be here anymore. However, her path for revenge leads her to the very hot Javier, a cyborg that teaches her she isn’t always right. As he takes her on a journey she wasn’t expecting, she learns that maybe she hasn’t ever been supporting the right side. As more shocks and secrets are revealed, she recognizes the world needs a massive change, and that she might have to help make that change come about. Shifters of the Night Everyone has secrets, but not ones like this. Torn between two men with secrets that could kill, who will she choose? When the dark, mysterious man in the corner of the bar that Scarlett frequents buys her a drink for no reason, she doesn't think there's anything strange about him. Hunter is handsome and charming, and it's enough to make Scarlett go back to see him again. When he asks her on a date she's excited, and it all goes smoothly. But suddenly, before they've even finished eating, he leaves abruptly, stating a family emergency that Scarlett doesn't believe is real. Enter Titus, Scarlett's upstairs neighbor she only knows from the constant loud sex she hears him having. He takes her out on a date of his own, but not before she hears back from Hunter, full of apologies for running out on her. She gives him another chance, and then wonders which of the two men she should pick. The advice of a colleague at work fuels her thoughts. Why should she try to choose between him and Titus when she could have both? But both men hold secrets, and when they come out, Scarlett might be left with no one once more. Can Scarlett possibly make it work and find happiness? Dragon’s Revenge She wants his help and he wants her heart. Janice When I received a phone call from my younger sister, I dropped everything to move to a new city and help her run her bar. Family means everything to me and I am not about to let her go under because of her deadbeat ex-husband. I expect this to be hard work, but I don't expect to meet Ajax. Stubborn, strong willed and dangerous, he is everything I have been warned to stay away from. I have a business to keep afloat. So why do I want to pull him closer? Ajax I'm in the middle of a turf war and I don't have time to focus on anything else. I need the help of a local bar to turn the tables on our rival club, and that means enlisting the help of Janice. She's feisty and she doesn't take no for an answer. She's frustrating and I can't seem to get anything done when she's around. But there's something about her that makes me want to keep her around. I need to focus on the job, but all I want to focus on is her.

Women of the Pleasure Quarters
Author: Lesley Downer
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0767909720
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
From critically acclaimed author and Japanese scholar Lesley Downer, an enchanting portrait of the mysterious world of the geisha. Ever since Westerners arrived in Japan, they have been intrigued by Japanese womanhood and, above all, by geisha. This fascination has spawned a wealth of extraordinary fictional creations, from Puccini's Madama Butterfly to Arthur Golden's Memoirs of a Geisha. The reality of the geisha's existence, though, whether today or in history, has rarely been addressed. Contrary to popular opinion, geisha are not prostitutes but, literally, "arts people." Their accomplishments include singing, dancing, playing a musical instruments; but above all, they are masters of the art of conversation, soothing the worries and stroking the egos of the wealthy businessmen who can afford their attentions. It is this which imbues the geisha with such power—and which makes absolute secrecy such a crucial aspect of their work. As denizens of a world defined by silence and mystery, geisha are notoriously difficult to meet and even to find. Lesley Downer, an award- winning writer, Japanese scholar, and consummate storyteller, gained more access into this world than almost any other Westerner ever has and spent several months living among them. In Women of the Pleasure Quarters, she weaves together intimate portraits of modern geisha with the romantic legends and colorful historical tales of geisha of the past. From Sadda Yakko, who dined with American presidents and had her portrait painted by Picasso, to Koito, a modern-day geisha who maintains her own website, geisha throughout history step out of the pages of Women of the Pleasure Quarters to become living, breathing creatures. Looking into such traditions as mizuage, the ritual deflowering which was once a rite of passage for all geisha, and providing colorful depictions of the geisha's dress, training, and homes, Downer, with grace, elegance, and respect, transforms their reality in a captivating narrative that both informs and entertains. At once a symbol of a bygone age and an institution more quintessentially Japanese than any other, geisha are a society at a crossroads, struggling to reinvent their place in the new millennium while honoring the traditions of the past. Both instructive and evocative, Women of the Pleasure Quarters is an enthralling portrait of a world unlike any other.
