"Crow" Hollander left behind a past full of thorns...or so she thought.After getting out of jail, she was assured that the opportunity for a new life lay before her. But each night, in her tiny apartment, the longed-for freedom feels more like house arrest in which she only finds loneliness and closed doors. Nobody wants to hire an ex-con.And everything becomes much more confusing when her signature black rose appears next to a corpse.She immediately becomes the prime suspect in a crime she didn't commit and will be forced to get into the twisted mind of a dangerous serial killer to prove her innocence.Although, maybe the greatest danger is starting to feel something for the detective who has sworn to lock her up forever.Because the line separating passion from madness is as thin as the sharp thorns on a rose.

Dillon Harris:La dernière chose à laquelle je m'attendais en affrontant mon père irresponsable était d'apprendre qu'il cachait un sombre secret - Il était un vampire. Comment est-ce possible? Les morts ne peuvent pas avoir d'enfants. Alors, comment puis-je exister? Et que suis-je vraiment? Par chance, j'ai Remy pour m'aider à démêler ce mystère. C'est le frère loup-garou de mon meilleur ami. Même si j'étais seulement l'ami humain et gay de son petit frère, il m'a toujours fait sentir important. Or, cet équilibre a été bousculé quand la famille mafieuse rivale du clan de loups-garous de Remy l'a forcé à se fiancer à la fille de leur alpha. Attendez, ai-je dit que j'étais humain? Oubliez cela. Je suis celui qui arrive à voir à travers le prestige que les créatures magiques utilisent pour se cacher du monde humain. Cela fait de moi la créature magique la plus dangereuse à New York... en particulier pour celui qui a contraint mon père à persuader ma mère qu'elle était enceinte. Et maintenant, je n'ai plus personne pour me protéger. Quoique, à la manière dont Remy me dévore des yeux, peut-être que si. Suis-je un simple pion dans un jeu plus grand visant à faire tomber l'humanité? Ou Remy est-il, non seulement l'homme que j'aime depuis notre première rencontre, mais également le chevalier qui me sauvera de tout cela?

Dark, painful memories can be put away to be forgotten. Until one day they all flood back in horrible detail.When television producers approached Alan Cumming to appear on a popular celebrity genealogy show, he hoped to solve the mystery of his maternal grandfather's disappearance that had long cast a shadow over his family. But this was not the only mystery laid before Alan.Alan grew up in the grip of a man who held his family hostage, someone who meted out violence with a frightening ease, who waged a silent war with himself that sometimes spilled over onto everyone around him. That man was Alex Cumming, Alan's father, whom Alan had not seen or spoken to for more than a decade when he reconnected just before filming for Who Do You Think You Are? began. He had a secret he had to share, one that would shock his son to his very core and set into motion a journey that would change Alan's life forever.With ribald humor, wit, and incredible insight, Alan seamlessly moves back and forth in time, integrating stories from his childhood in Scotland and his experiences today as the celebrated actor of film, television, and stage. At times suspenseful, at times deeply moving, but always incredibly brave and honest, Not My Father's Son is a powerful story of embracing the best aspects of the past and triumphantly pushing the darkness aside.

Mainstream academic criticism has usually failed to engage gay work without distorting or ignoring its most central features. In gay men's writing, tenderness lies side by side with rage, and existential rejection of convention rubs shoulders with sexual hedonism. This groundbreaking work takes us on an unprecedented tour--in clear, lively, and non-technical language--of classic and little-known texts from the perspective of gay experience, sensibility, and desire. Beginning with Wilde's and Byron's existentialist outlaw, the theme of social rebellion and the fight against conformity forms a common link among the literary works of the twentieth century. Gay Men's Literature in the Twentieth Century presents us with a unified analysis of these, and other, shared themes in the works of James Baldwin, Christopher Isherwood, Tennessee Williams, Lord Byron, Oscar Wilde, E. M. Forster, Jean Genet, Joe Orton, Andrew Holleran, David Leavitt, and Constantine Cavafy, and in the love poetry of the first world war.This is the most unified treatment of gay men's writing to date, written to appeal to the general reader, but based on scholarship so original that it is vital reading for anyone interested in gay studies and gender studies.
