With the goal of finding a woman to love, Cash vows to change his ways. Just as he bids a final farewell to his playboy lifestyle, Cash encounters Marie Daniels, a stunning brunette from Texas-who also happens to be married. But despite his promise to himself and her commitment to her husband, Cash and Marie are immediately drawn to each other. As both of them fight their feelings and attempt to move on with their lives, neither has any idea that Cash is about to receive devastating news that will change everything.

In this moving tale of romance and hope, the possibility of love hangs in the air as two lost souls grasp for answers in a desperate race against time.

Surrey County in England, im Jahr 1975: An seinem 18. Geburtstag beobachtet Colin am Box Hill, einem Biker-Treffpunkt südlich von London, neugierig die starken Kerle im Motorrad-Outfit. Noch weiß er nicht, dass dieser Tag sein Leben für immer verändern wird. Bis er wortwörtlich über einen der starken Kerle stolpert: Ray. Die natürliche Autorität des deutlich älteren Mannes mit der Lederkluft übt vom ersten Moment an eine unbezwingbare Anziehungskraft auf Colin aus. Die Folgen sind seine erste sexuelle Erfahrung, seine erste Fahrt auf einer Norton Commando und seine erste Beziehung. Noch am selben Tag zieht er bei Ray ein – der Beginn einer sechs Jahre andauernden, streng reglementierten Zweisamkeit, in der sich die Grenzen zwischen Unterwerfung und Geborgenheit auflösen.

Adam Mars-Jones verbindet in "Box Hill" die Geschichte einer SM-Beziehung mit einem großen Panorama der Widersprüchlichkeiten menschlichen Verhaltens. Indem er den Ich-Erzähler Colin die Geschichte mit einem zeitlichen Abstand von knapp zwanzig Jahren erzählen lässt, schreibt er dem Text beiläufig eine Nostalgie ein, die auch den Abgründen des Geschehens eine gewisse Zärtlichkeit zubilligt. Und indem er Ray gleichermaßen als Unterdrücker und als Ikone zeichnet, macht er die Ambivalenz von Colins Gefühlen nachvollziehbar. Das ist sexy und anrührend, traurig und komisch, und entlarvt nicht zuletzt mit einer charmanten Portion britischen Humors das Männerwelt-Idyll der ungebremsten Motorrad-Rennfahrten, drakonischen Machtspielchen und versauten Poker-Runden als Mythos von gestern.

Three Women meets Crudo: a frank and fresh literary debut about the dawn of dating apps in Amsterdam.

‘Sexual infidelity is unavoidable, for whatever reasons, in long monogamous relationships, so why not give the other sexual freedom, as a gesture of love, of communication maybe?’

Amsterdam in 2014 is an historic city situated at the heart of the future. One of the biggest hubs for internet traffic in the world, it has become a favourite testing-ground for the new internet platforms that form the vanguard of what has been coined ‘the sharing economy’.

Gabrielle Bloom is a woman in her mid-40s, working as an exhibition curator. She is happily married to Anton and loves her son Victor. They have a circle of sophisticated friends and enjoy the life of two successful and respectable professionals living in one of the world’s most beautiful and culturally rich cities.

There is, though, one crucial difference between their relationship and those of their friends. Gabrielle and Anton enjoy an open marriage.

When Gabrielle is introduced, during a visit to a feminist art collective, to a new dating app that has recently launched in the city, fresh horizons open up. With an almost unlimited number of potential partners suddenly available to her, she quickly develops a taste for the thrill of a brief sexual encounter. Moving from one assignation to the next, things at first seem exhilarating and uncomplicated. But the human heart has not evolved at the same rate as the silicon chip and when attachments start to form things rapidly become less simple.

Set during one intense and transformative year, and suffused with art, sex and philosophy, The Sharing Economy is at once a uniquely radical reappraisal of the way we view relationships and a tender and moving depiction of the many ways in which the human heart is capable of love.

Now Hanna Thurber is on Del Rey looking for a place to escape, and Nash is all too eager to provide. This ballerina is anything but delicate, and the chemistry between them is electric. But the past won’t stay dead, and Ellis Prior finds his way to the island, too.

'This sizzling hot read will take you to places you've never been before' The Sun on Beautiful Liar I'm known as the Black Widow because the desires I hide inside are pure poison. I was a different person once. Faith, a young wife, hoping to become a mother. My life was pleasant. Stable. It was hell. Until Killian Knight opened my eyes to a world of espionage and intrigue. He saw something in me, something I was too afraid to acknowledge. I didn't want to be excited by the danger. Didn't want to crave the wicked passion only he could provide. But I did want, so now I run. And I pay. I never meant to corrupt her, but I'm not sorry. After all, I'm already damned. After four years of searching and longing, I've finally found her. Faith, the one person in the world I breathe for. She lives beneath my skin as surely as I wear proof of our transgressions inked on my body.

'My real writing was put aside when I set out in search of the erotic. These are my adventures in that world of prostitution' In her first volume of erotic writings, Delta of Venus, Anaïs Nin explored the nature of female sexuality. Little Birds is broader in its scope, glimpsing in dream-like fashion the subtle or explicit means by which men and women are aroused. Each of the thirteen vignettes captures a moment of sexual awakening, recognition or fulfilment. Lust, obsession, fantasy and desire emerge as part of the human condition, as pure or as complex as any other of its aspects. Little Birds may be seen as an attempt to create the ultimate sexual encounter or as a depiction of the diversity of sexual needs; as the author herself says, 'The sexual life is usually enveloped in many layers, for all of us . . . It is a veiled woman, half-dreamed'. The first volume of her erotic writings, Delta of Venus, is also published by Penguin.

Away games, back seats, and the locker room after hours... Get ready for a new girl-girl bully romance!

CLAY
Marymount girls are good girls. We're chaste, we're untouched, and even if we weren't, no one would know, because we keep our mouths shut. Not that I have anything to share anyway. I never let guys go too far. I'm behaved.


Beautiful, smart, talented, popular, my skirt's always pressed, and I never have a hair out of place. I own the hallways, walking tall on Monday and dropping to my knees like the good Catholic girl I am on Sunday. That's me. Always in control.

Or so they think.

The truth is that it's easy for me to resist them, because what I truly want, they can never be. Something soft and smooth. Someone dangerous and wild.

Unfortunately, what I want I have to hide. In the locker room after hours. In the bathroom stall between classes. In the showers after practice

For me, life is a web of secrets. No one can find out mine.

OLIVIA
I cross the tracks every day for one reason—to graduate from this school and get into the Ivy League. I'm not ashamed of where I come from, my family, or how everyone at Marymount thinks my skirts are too short and my lipstick is too red.

Clay Collins and her friends have always turned up their noses at me. The witch with her beautiful skin, clean shoes, and rich parents who torments me daily and thinks I won't fight back.

At least not until I get her alone and find out she's hiding so much more than just what's underneath those pretty clothes.

The princess thinks I'll scratch her itch. She thinks she's still pure as long as it's not a guy touching her.

I told her to stay on her side of town. I told her not to cross the tracks. But one night, she did.

And when I'm done with her, she'll never be pure again.
