What if you had the chance to rewrite the course of your relationship, again and again, in the hopes that it would work out?
When Myriam and Allison fall in love at a show in a run-down punk house, their relationship begins to unfold through a series of hypotheticals: What if they became mothers by finding a baby in an alley? What if the only cure for Myriam's depression was Allison's flesh? What if they were B-list celebrities, famous for writing a book about building healthy lesbian relationships? How much darker--or sexier--would their dynamic be if one were a power-hungry CEO, and the other her lowly employee? From the fantasies of early romance to the slow encroaching of violence that unravels the fantasy, each reality builds to complete a brilliant, painfully funny portrait of love's many promises and perils.Equal parts sexy and profane, unsentimental, and gut-wrenching, How It Works Out is a genre-bending, arresting, uncanny exploration of queerness, love, and our drive for connection, in any and all possible worlds.
In the rain-soaked backcountry of Oklahoma, 22-year-old Helen LeFitte is lost.
Having dropped out of college to escape the weight of her growing mental health struggles, Helen's return home is derailed after a near-fatal accident in the wilderness. Just when hope seems lost, fate and circumstances conspire to rescue her.
With a presence that feels almost otherworldly and eyes that hold untold secrets, the beautiful Luciana brings Helen into her home-a mansion tucked into the forbidding landscape. But a world of enchantment and ancient magic lie hidden beneath the rugged terrain, and as Helen recovers under Luciana's care, she is drawn into a realm where reality and fantasy intertwine.
As Helen and Luciana's bond deepens, their connection blooms. Amidst the relentless rain and swirling shadows of dark October skies, Helen finds a spark that defies the ordinary, transforming her in ways she never imagined.
Yet their newfound love faces formidable challenges. Dark forces threaten to tear apart the fragile world they are building together. In Rain in October, a tale of courage, magic, and transformation unfolds, where love emerges from the storm and offers both salvation and peril.
Will Helen and Luciana's profound affection be enough to overcome the shadows that loom over their hearts, their histories, and their very existence?

The Marquis de Sade was a French aristocrat, revolutionary, and writer of philosophy-laden, and often, violent pornography. He was a philosopher of extreme freedom, unrestrained by morality, religion or law, with the pursuit of personal pleasure being the highest principle. There is perhaps no more infamous figure in all of literature.
The 120 Days of Sodom is an unfinished novel written in 1785 and published in 1904 after its manuscript was rediscovered. Described as both pornographic] and erotic, its plot revolves around the activities of four wealthy, male libertines who, in the four months of one winter, attempt to seek out the ultimate sexual gratification through orgies, sealing themselves away in an inaccessible castle in the heart of the Black Forest in Germany with a harem of thirty-six victims, mostly male and female teenagers.[5] During this, they engage four female brothel keepers to tell the stories of their lives and adventures; the crimes and tortures in the women's narratives inspire the libertines to similarly abuse and torture their victims, which gradually intensifies, increases in violence, and ends in their slaughter.
Jolted by her mother's horrific death during a California-bound train ride, Louisa never had much choice but to accept that life can be as brutal as it is beautiful. After arriving in Jerome, Arizona, with her father, Pa, and younger sister, Heather, Louisa can only hope for an uneventful reset. But their new home, dubbed the Wickedest Little Town in the West, might have a slew of even harsher lessons in store.
Tragedy strikes again, and Louisa must pave the way for her sister's survival, even if it means doing something that makes Heather resent her. Becoming the right-hand woman to local brothel owner Miss Jennie, mingling with wealthy investors, and conning her way into a slice of the local mine fortune were never on Louisa's to-do list. Then again, neither was murder. Now, as Louisa's cunning little schemes ignite, it won't just be her life going up in flames.

The title for this book clearly suggests the setting. All three stories occur in bars, but in particular, the gay bars of Los Angeles. They evoke the nostalgia and demand for speak-easies from the days of Prohibition to the safe retreats for people who weren't straight during the 60s, 70s and 80s. The stories arise from the events that surrounded them but go much further than mere reporting. The climate of the eras is evident in every tale and each one contains a truthful theme: that humanity and love are ceaselessly sought by every human being and not exclusive.
Each story begins with a casual conversation that opens up a treasure trove of experiences and perspectives. Each character benefits from their compassionate and honest discussions of the times they live in. The author invites us to glimpse the issues that she sees from her own particular viewpoint without alienating anyone or using condescension to make her point. Each protagonist in the three tales reminds us of someone we know, or knew, as the case may be. They are depicted as honestly and clearly and real as the persons they represent. The author has a talent for keeping her descriptions concise but rich and vibrant.
The stories leave us with a message that uplifts the soul, and is not cynical. The author honestly describes places, situations and people who continue to live in our minds and stay with us long after the stories end. The language is conversational and reflective of the place and time it arises from. The reader is treated to a peek of real life and history in a way that not only amuses us but also intrigues and rewards us with its clarity and perception.
Cocktales is a delightful escape of personal triumph and growth that both enlightens and informs the reader in three captivating stories that truthfully portray what it means to be human.
Vicki Cole is, at the age of 37, one of the more enviable women in America. Beautiful, intelligent, and obscenely wealthy, she inherited her fortune and her position as the Chief Executive Officer of Consolidated Defense Industries from her grandfather, Henry Cole, who founded the company as a closely held, family run operation and built it into a behemoth of the military industrial complex. In selecting Vicki as his successor, he bypassed his son, Winston Cole, Vicki's widowed father.
It is early on New Year's morning, January 1, 2023. Vicki has hosted a lavish party for the top executives of the company, which has just concluded one of its more eventful years. The guests have left and Vicki is staring at the recessed ceiling of her mini-mansion overlooking the Potomac River outside Washington, D.C. But those green eyes that stirred so many male hearts are vacant and still.
Vicki Cole - beautiful, successful, and wealthy - is dead.
Having set the stage in this way, the story leaps back to the previous New Year's Day, January 1, 2022. It is then that we begin to meet a cast of characters whose paths and fates will intersect in the year leading up to Vicki's death and in the period thereafter, as the authorities try to resolve the Who? and Why? of her demise. The cast includes -

Tanith Lee wrote three books with the 'help' of mysterious collaborators - the Garbers. Esther Garber - and her half-brother, Judas Garbah - do not exist in our reality, but they came through to the author so strongly, characters with such distinct personalities and voices, they felt as if they were real. And who's to say they're not? The Garbers are both gay and, through them, Lee produced one novel and two story collections of Lesbian and gay erotica - but erotica with literary depth, and often laced with horror and the uncanny.
34 is the novel 'co-written' with Esther Garber, and has been long out of print. This new edition introduces the reader to Esther's autobiography - but how much of it is true? Are her recollections of her unusual childhood in Egypt with her sister Anna correct? And what of the mysterious gentleman, who Esther meets in France after having run away from home, who initiates her into forbidden pleasures? Is she haunted or merely manipulated? Is she in love or simply obsessed? After one night of passion, Esther pursues her elusive tormentor into what seems to be a fairy-tale version of the French countryside, to journey's end and revelation, but also further mystery.
Sensual, thought-provoking, and with an unreliable narrator, who twists and turns within her own tortured story, 34 demonstrates that haunting comes in many forms. As does desire.
This edition also includes the author's essay, on her work with Esther and Judas: 'Meeting the Garbers'.

Following on from classic novels this novel finds Laura in love in the lesbian bohemia of Greenwich Village. Praise for Ann Bannon: Bannon's books grab you and don't let go --Village Voice.When I was young, Bannon's books let me imagine myself into her New York City neighborhoods of short-haired, dark-eyed butch women and stubborn, tight-lipped secretaries with hearts ready to be broken. Her books come close to the kind of books that had made me feel fatalistic and damned in my youth, but somehow she just managed to sustain a sense of hope. And of course, there was her romantic portrait of the kind of butch woman I idealized. I would have dated Beebo, no question --Dorothy Allison. Called trash by the literary world and pornography by the commercial world, Ann Bannon's books were hidden away on drugstore pulp racks. To pick out the book, carry it to the counter and face the other shoppers and the cashier was tantamount to coming out. But all across the country, lesbians were doing it-- Joan Nestle. Little did Bannon know that her stories would become legends, inspiring countless fledgling dykes to flock to the Village, dog-eared copies of her books in hand, to find their own Beebos and Lauras and others who shared the love they dared not name-- San Francisco Bay Guardian. Ann Bannon is a pioneer of dyke drama On Our Backs Shameless tales of wanton dyke lust are finally unveiled -- Out magazine
