Jealousy's a real bitch, but so is his ex-girlfriend. Maxwell Penn is my lover, my boss and my Dom. He pushes me emotionally as well as sensually, in all the ways a girl should be pushed by the man she loves. Sure, some days, I still swing back and forth between wanting to strangle him and wanting to straddle him, but I wouldn’t give him up for the world. Oh, did I mention there’s talk of him taking me to a Swingers' Ball at a local lifestyle club? So yeah, our relationship is positively sizzling. At least, it is until Boudoir Fashion Week, when Max’s college girlfriend explodes back into his life, and everything goes south. Giselle Dubois is tall, svelte, and so stunning that I feel the need to wear sunglasses whenever she’s around. Using her sensuality and intimate knowledge of Max's past, Giselle embarks on a mission of manipulation to acquire something Max "took" from her years ago, but it’s not just knowledge of his past she has in her arsenal. She knows my past. My family's secrets. The dark stain that has marred my family since I was a child. But Giselle isn’t the only threat facing us. There is another monster in our midst, one far more cunning and deadly. Publisher’s Note: This steamy contemporary romance contains elements of power exchange.

Pages : 183
Book Description
A dazzling collection of essays that unpacks our unruly bodies and minds and questions why we are taught to fear and punish them, from an exciting and award-winning new author. We live in a world that expects us to be constantly in control of ourselves. Our bodies and minds, though, have other ideas.

Her luminous writing is at once specific and universal as she mines the limits of anxiety, intimacy and control. Sharp-witted and poignant, this collection of essays explores our unruly bodies and asks how we might learn to embrace our own chaos.

The Hot Guide to a Cool, Sexy Menopause
Author: Barbara Dehn
Publisher: Turner Publishing Company
ISBN: 1591207126
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Menopause can impact a woman’s life in a variety of ways—the experiences of which are as varied and unique as each woman who is experiencing them. Nurse Barb wants every woman to know that this is no longer their grand mothers’ generation—there’s no need to just accept whatever comes their way. Vitality, zest, and yes, a sexy outlook on life are within every woman’s reach. The Hot Guide to a Cool Sexy Menopause is an extension of what Nurse Barb offers her own patients—which is relatable information, easy-to-understand explanations, and a varied menu of options. The author doesn’t believe in telling women what to do when the hormonal roller coaster of menopause presents a challenge. Instead, she believes in helping women find their own best path to total health. Menopause isn’t the end, nor is it something to be endured like a root canal. Menopause is a new beginning, and it can be one of the most rewarding times in a woman’s life. There’s a great deal to look forward to during this part of the journey and beyond. Nurse Barb provides a wealth of advice to guide you along your way. Each chapter of the book covers a different aspect of the menopause transition. Rounding out the practical information are true-life stories about women who have experienced the physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges and how they navigated this journey, growing stronger, more empowered, and healthier. A cool and sexy menopause is just a read away!

Diet and the Disease of Civilization
Author: Adrienne Rose Bitar
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 0813589665
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
Diet books contribute to a $60-billion industry as they speak to the 45 million Americans who diet every year. Yet these books don’t just tell readers what to eat: they offer complete philosophies about who Americans are and how we should live. Diet and the Disease of Civilization interrupts the predictable debate about eating right to ask a hard question: what if it’s not calories—but concepts—that should be counted? Cultural critic Adrienne Rose Bitar reveals how four popular diets retell the “Fall of Man” as the narrative backbone for our national consciousness. Intensifying the moral panic of the obesity epidemic, they depict civilization itself as a disease and offer diet as the one true cure. Bitar reads each diet—the Paleo Diet, the Garden of Eden Diet, the Pacific Island Diet, the detoxification or detox diet—as both myth and manual, a story with side effects shaping social movements, driving industry, and constructing fundamental ideas about sickness and health. Diet and the Disease of Civilization unearths the ways in which diet books are actually utopian manifestos not just for better bodies, but also for a healthier society and a more perfect world.
