Book Description
LourdesHe was brazen as hell from the moment I laid eyes on him. He was aggressive, and dominant, with mac truck arms, and a bar brawler voice. He was too good looking for his own good, with a hard jaw, and harder eyes. I'd always led a fairly peaceful life, but even I could tell at a glance that this man was dangerous. For so many reasons. Not the least of which being that rough, dirty, sheet-clawing sex fairly radiated off him. I'd thought I'd known how to handle every kind of man, but this one left me baffled. To say he wasn't my type was putting it lightly. But you couldn't tell that to my libido. Not even when I found out the truth. My lover had lied to me from the very start. Nothing about our meeting was a coincidence.

Pages : 232
Book Description
Sex is not 'routine' any more. There are sex shops decorating the high-street, free porn all over the internet and lets not even get started on the new BDSM phenomenon. So when things get a little 'stale' in the bedroom, what would you do? Carlie made a suggestion; a suggestion I wanted nothing to do with at first, but she was my wife and I'd have done anything to make her happy. I went along with her plan, even though I really didn't want to. It actually worked, for a while. Until something changed. Then I wasn't doing it for her anymore. Instead, it was all about secret liaisons, stolen moments and the thrill of getting caught. My life changed overnight and there was nothing I could do to prevent it. Lust is an unstoppable emotion when it takes hold. Rules are broken. Mistakes are made. Lives are destroyed. Be careful what you wish for, because sometimes, that wish can come true. Zachary Black was her wish. ...Until he became mine.

A Man among Other Men
Author: Jordanna Matlon
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501762877
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
A Man among Other Men examines competing constructions of modern manhood in the West African metropolis of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire. Engaging the histories, representational repertoires, and performative identities of men in Abidjan and across the Black Atlantic, Jordanna Matlon shows how French colonial legacies and media tropes of Blackness act as powerful axes, rooting masculine identity and value within labor, consumerism, and commodification. Through a broad chronological and transatlantic scope that culminates in a deep ethnography of the livelihoods and lifestyles of men in Abidjan's informal economy, Matlon demonstrates how men's subjectivities are formed in dialectical tension by and through hegemonic ideologies of race and patriarchy. A Man among Other Men provides a theoretically innovative, historically grounded, and empirically rich account of Black masculinity that illuminates the sustained power of imaginaries even as capitalism affords a deficit of material opportunities. Revealed is a story of Black abjection set against the anticipation of male privilege, a story of the long crisis of Black masculinity in racial capitalism.
