![]() ![]() ![]() The Game Series is a BDSM series where romance meets the reality of kink. ![]() It was time to improvise, adapt, and…start believin’ in pipe dreams. My “the one who got away” showed up at a kink event, and Sloan shared a drunken confession that screwed with my head. I guess it made perfect sense that after so many years of wondering, waiting, and grumbling, a single week changed it all. He was struggling to make ends meet with four kids, and I had a big house. Even my best friend Sloan pulled away from me. It hurt that nobody seemed to be interested in anything beyond pain sessions and casual playtime. But it killed me to come home to an empty house at the end of the day. I’d started a kink community with some of them. I’d always wanted a big family and a place out in the sticks.Īt forty-five, I could only scratch my head and wonder what the hell had happened. I was fresh out of boot camp and somewhere in the desert when I started picturing what my life after the Marines would look like. Get cozy and strap in for the family side of a kinkster’s life puzzle, where the kids have homework before the grown-ups can sneak in some playtime, where three men share a dream they barely dare believe in, and where you bring out the toy bag when the little ones take a nap. ![]() The Game Series Book 6 Standalone High-Protocol M/s Family MMM Genres: Adult, Contemporary, LGBTQ+, Romance ![]() ![]() I'm a huge fan of Cat and Bones and have read the other Night Huntress books in the series but this one is my favorite. Paranormal romance and urban fantasy fans who hunger for the novels of Kim Harrison, Christine Feehan, and Charlaine Harris are going to love The Night Prince and this dark and steamy tale of supernatural attraction. Vlad Tepesh, the ruthless master vampire and inspiration for Bram Stoker’s dark legend (but don’t dare call him Dracula) encounters a mortal woman with unimaginable power…including the ability to enflame his cold heart. ![]() Spinning off from her wildly successful, New York Times bestselling Night Huntress novels featuring vampire soulmates Cat and Bones, Jeaniene Frost kicks off the thrilling new Night Prince series with Once Burned. “Put Jeaniene Frost on your must-read list!” -Lara Adrian, New York Times bestselling author “An author who delivers only the best.” - Romantic Times ![]() ![]() ![]() ² This quote is from the essay “Poetry is not a luxury,” published in Sister Outsider. ¹ Audre Lorde uses the term outsider to express the condition of Black women, “whose experiences and traditions are too ‘alien’ to understand.” According to Lorde, “the farthest external horizons of our hopes and fears are cobbled by our poems, carved from the rock experiences of our daily lives.”. ![]() In the book, Lorde proposes a feminist, anti-racist view on poetry writing, pedagogy, sexuality, and strategies of resistence of Black women. ![]() The fact that they share the same name is an example of how her poems are drenched with the political propositions and concerns she articulated in her essays, and vice-versa. ![]() “Sister Outsider” is also the name of her powerful book of essays published in 1984. In her address, Lorde excoriated the conference’s organizers for excluding race, age, class, and sexuality diversity from its topics and speakers. This relationship expands as women break the silence and fear and turn loneliness into strength and learning. This is the provocative admonishment that Black lesbian feminist writer and activist Audre Lorde (1979/1984a) delivered to a feminist conference in 1979. Her verses discuss the experience and struggle of black women for life, through elements that symbolize their relationship with the world, beliefs, nature, and other women. The poem “Sister Outsider” is part of the book The Black Unicorn, by Audre Lorde, published in 1978 in the United States. Audre Lorde is the voice of the eloquent outsider who speaks in a language that can reach and touch people everywhere. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() When so many people think Valerie Solanas, they think, “bat-shit crazy, violent, murderous, ridiculous, woman.” He’s not the only one who sees her that way. This name was meant to summon shame in me, like invoking some Goetic demon to bate and restrain my crazed feminism. I could tell from the tone of his comment, he expected me to recoil at the mention of that name - Valerie Solanas - the direst of insults queer female hysterical violent “femi-nazi” insanity personified.

During the production of Myst V, actor David Ogden Stiers suggested to pronounce the name as "duchnee" instead of Dunny, and Rand Miller gave his approval, despite being inconsistent with what Stiers and Miller always used already (and what is known about the D'ni language). ![]() Watson noted that this word means "toilet" in Australian English, and perhaps that was the reason it was dropped.

![]() ![]() But even more telling are the experiences of ordinary travellers, ranging from pacifist Quakers to Jewish boy scouts African-American academics (one of whom had a remarkable meeting with Hitler) to First World War veterans. Among them are celebrities like Charles Lindbergh, Lloyd George, the Maharajah of Patiala, Francis Bacon, the King of Bulgaria and Samuel Beckett - to name just a few. These questions, and many others, are explored through the personal testimony of foreign visitors to the Third Reich. But what was it like to travel in the Third Reich without the benefit of post-war hindsight? How easy was it then to know what was actually going on, to grasp the essence of National Socialism, to remain untouched by the propaganda or predict the Holocaust? Images of Nazi atrocities are so powerful that they can never be suppressed or set aside. ![]() For anyone born after the Second World War, it has always been impossible to view this period with detachment. Scores of previously unpublished diaries and letters have been tracked down to present a vivid new picture of Nazi Germany that will enhance - even challenge - the reader’s current perceptions. Based on first-hand accounts written by foreigners, it creates a sense of what it was really like, both physically and emotionally, to travel in Hitler’s Germany. ![]() Travellers in the Third Reich tells us what happened in Germany between the wars but in a novel way. ![]() |
