Matt Santini is discontented. An unhappily closeted gay actor, he's just lost his lover and is fast approaching thirty without so much as a decent soap opera callback in sight. 24 year old Richard Lucas has even bigger problems. The newest recruit of fading Formula One team Logan Racing, he's fighting to escape the omnipresent shadow of his ace older brother as well as his burgeoning sexuality. After Matt wins a role in hip new TV drama "Nightsearcher" (think: "Buffy" on wheels), the two men begin a secret affair that takes them all over the globe on a collision course between career and companionship in which there can only be one victor. "Robin Tamblyn follows up backdoor-to-Tinseltown blockbuster
"King of Hollywood" with "Velocity," a steamy, adrenaline-rush,
fast paced novel mixing hot guys, sexy shenanigans and Formula One
racing. Written with verve and a youthful edge, "Velocity" takes
you on the inside track to the macho world of racing, where sex and
the need for speed meet head on. Fasten your seat belts readers,
"Velocity" is one pleasure-trip of a ride!"
Richard House's startling debut, Bruiser, is a spare yet lyrical love story about people who can't fall in love. "Supple, deep, perfectly regulated, full of high, shy intelligence and cool, sweet wit, Bruiser is an amazing novel". -- Dennis Cooper
"We have traded tales, my buddies and I; of affairs, encounters,
secrets, fears, self-promotion-of fantasies that we make real in
the telling."
For the first time, porn legend Aiden Shaw takes fans behind-the-scenes to the gay adult film world that made him a star. My Undoing ventures from locales such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, and London, to the sets of premiere studios like Falcon, Catalina, and Studio 200. Yet, this is not the typical adult film memoir, where stars drop names and titillate readers with explicit moments. Although My Undoing shares in unsparing detail all the hot stories about the sex and drugs that fueled Aiden's life, it more profoundly follows him through a course of rocky and unfulfilling relationships. As Aiden eloquently and often humorously points out, the romantic life of an adult film superstar is sometimes lonely and lacking in love. But not love only in the form of a relationship, rather also love from within himself. The book is equally moving for his revelations about his Irish Catholic family, his Positive HIV status in the sex industry, and his recovery from a near fatal car accident that left him temporarily paralyzed.
