Book Description
"To be, or not to be..."Alison thought she was living the good life. She and her devoted husband, Xander, had found great careers as managers of a small but successful company. They had a nice house in a nice neighborhood with nice cars. Xander had a decent group of guys to hang out and to play board games with a few times a month, giving her time to pamper herself with a good book to read in a soothing bubble bath.Sure, she was tired most evenings, but she figured it was the kind of tired that meant you had done a full day's work and earned your rest.She didn't realize Xander viewed their life differently until he made a startling request: be his sex slave and rekindle their faded sex life.Alison's initial reaction was a resounding, "Absolutely not!" Xander tries to bargain, but quickly gives up in the face of his wife's distress. The couple heads off for another routine day of work that goes completely off the rails when Alison starts to consider his request. Alison spends the morning locked in her office, reviewing their erotic relationship. She knows they have been fairly vanilla - their most daring act involved repeated pillow talk of a threesome. Even that stopped months ago as she felt increasingly guilty for imagining Xander's best friend, Gideon, in the role of the other man in their fantasy - a fact she never shared with Xander.Would it really be so horrible to try something new? As Alison conducts some online research and warms up to the idea, Xander worries he just made a big mistake. Even if she agrees, what does he do with a sex slave?Xander goes to his more-adventurous buddy Gideon for advice. Gideon suggests that Xander should start by fulfilling Alison's fantasies, but is a Master even something Xander can be?"A Husband's Request" is a light-hearted MMF romance with mild BDSM elements.

How to Be a Husband
Author: Tim Dowling
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0147517745
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
While this book is indeed titled How to Be a Husband, please do not mistake it for a self-help book. Tim Dowling—columnist for The Guardian, husband, father of three, a person who once got into a shark tank for money—does not purport to have any pearls of wisdom about wedded life. What he does have is more than twenty years of marriage experience, and plenty of hilarious advice for what not to do in almost every conjugal situation. With the sharp wit that has made his Guardian columns a weekly must-read, Dowling explores what it means to be a good husband in the twenty-first century. The bar has been raised dramatically in the last hundred years: back in the day, every time you went out for cigarettes, it was simply expected that you came back. Now, every time you’re sent out for espresso pods and tampons, it is expected that you come back with the right sort. And being a father doesn’t seem to command much innate respect these days, either. When his first child was born, Dowling imagined himself eliciting a natural awe as the distant, authoritative figurehead; he did not anticipate his children hijacking his Twitter account to post heartfelt admissions of loserdom like, “Hi, I suck at everything I try in life.” Still, two decades of wedded bliss is nothing to sneeze at, particularly from a couple who agreed to get married with the resigned determination of two people plotting to bury a body in the woods. How to Be a Husband is a wickedly funny guide to surviving the era of “The End of Men” (hint: it involves DIY), and an unexpectedly poignant memoir about love, marriage, and staying together until death doth you part.

Onions Are My Husband
Author: Gracia Clark
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226107760
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 509
Book Description
In the most comprehensive analysis to date of the world of open air marketplaces of West Africa, Gracia Clark studies the market women of Kumasi, Ghana, in order to understand the key social forces that generate, maintain, and continually reshape the shifting market dynamics. Probably the largest of its kind in West Africa, the Kumasi Central Market houses women whose positions vary from hawkers of meals and cheap manufactured goods to powerful wholesalers, who control the flow of important staples. Drawing on more than four years of field research, during which she worked alongside several influential market "Queens", Clark explains the economic, political, gender, and ethnic complexities involved in the operation of the marketplace and examines the resourcefulness of the market women in surviving the various hazards they routinely encounter, from coups d'etat to persistent sabotage of their positions from within.

The Loving Husband
Author: Christobel Kent
Publisher: Sarah Crichton Books
ISBN: 0374716013
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER “Be careful, Fran,” the man said quietly. “About what you think you know.” In a dilapidated farmhouse out in the vast waterlogged plains of the English Fenlands, Fran awakes groggily to her baby’s cries one February night and finds the bed empty beside her. Her husband, Nathan, is gone. Moving uneasily through the drafty rooms, searching for her husband, Fran soon makes a devastating discovery that upends her marriage and any semblance of safety. As she tries desperately to make sense of what happened to Nathan, Fran is forced to delve dangerously into the undercurrents of his claustrophobic hometown and question how well she knew him in the first place. Fran, increasingly isolated, grows paranoid—but Nathan isn’t the only one hiding something. Though she can’t tell a soul, Fran is shielding a damning secret of her own: a hazy, dreamlike memory from the night of Nathan’s disappearance that might be the key to it all. From the bestselling author of The Crooked House comes an utterly gripping psychological thriller spanning the traditions of Daphne du Maurier and S. J. Watson. Christobel Kent’s The Loving Husband is spooky and skillfully written, dragging readers deep into the unsettling world of the Fens and into a marriage of half-truths and past lives, where no one can be trusted—especially not your spouse.
