Book Description
Aliyah Hunter Dalton has been my best friend since I first laid eyes on him in second grade. In my heart, he’s always been mine. Unfortunately, he’s never figured that out. When my parents passed last year, he was the only solid thing left in my life, the only person I knew would always be there for me. But when he gets weird about our annual Valentine’s Day movie bash, I worry he’s ready to settle down…with someone else. If I tell him how I really feel, will I lose him forever? Hunter Aliyah Blackwood is perfection. Smart, funny, gorgeous. I know her better than I know myself. I’ve wanted her for so long it’s become a constant ache in my bones, a fever that never cools. I was ready to risk everything, to tell her how I feel, when her parents died. Now I’m all she has. I can’t push her for more. Not when I’m afraid she’ll say yes because she doesn’t want to lose her best friend, and not because she wants me too. Because if we cross that line from friends to lovers, I won’t settle for anything less than all of her. Valentine's Confession is a short, best friends to lovers holiday romance. Standing Author's Note: All of my stories come with a guaranteed HEA. Once the page closes, the characters will always be together. However, if you need a marriage proposal and/or pregnancy for a romance to feel complete, my books may not be for you. Most of my characters don't want kids and enjoy living in sin. So if that's your jam, read on.

Fake It
Author: Mark Osteen
Publisher: University of Virginia Press
ISBN: 081394628X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 431
Book Description
How many layers of artifice can one artwork contain? How does forgery unsettle our notions of originality and creativity? Looking at both the literary and art worlds, Fake It investigates a set of fictional forgeries and hoaxes alongside their real-life inspirations and parallels. Mark Osteen shows how any forgery or hoax is only as good as its authenticating story—and demonstrates how forgeries foster fresh authorial identities while being deeply intertextual and frequently quite original. From fakes of the late eighteenth century, such as Thomas Chatterton’s Rowley poems and the notorious "Shakespearean" documents fabricated by William-Henry Ireland, to hoaxes of the modern period, such as Clifford Irving’s fake autobiography of Howard Hughes, the infamous Ern Malley forgeries, and the audacious authorial masquerades of Percival Everett, Osteen lays bare provocative truths about the conflicts between aesthetic and economic value. In doing so he illuminates the process of artistic creation, which emerges as collaborative and imitative rather than individual and inspired, revealing that authorship is, to some degree, always forged.
