Broken: Romance, Erotic and Hard Sex between the Biker and the Single Mom
by Alba DuroDead father? Yes. Motherless childhood? Also. Single mother? Of course. The worst ex-boyfriend in the world? It couldn't be different. Life can be an authentic shit or a sea of roses. In my case... a bit more of the first than the second. But still, as everyone, I gave the best of me. At 19 a nice, strong, shameless man presents himself to me. Nine months later, I find myself taking care of my little girl alone. The last thing I needed was for my father, the only good man who seemed to live on earth, to die. Now, here I am, alone and broken, in the eye of the hurricane, bearing the torment as well as I can. And then, he shows up to me. A nice, tall, strong and shameless man. Lucky me it's not the same one. This one, briefly, is the vice president of a bikers club. Call it a bikers club... Call it a criminal organization. Yes, I jumped into the abyss without hesitating, like a junkie searching for his syringe. I didn’t care that it could end badly. In the end, I couldn’t expect anything else. But I had spent too much time alone and I needed exactly that: a man to sleep with, one I could enjoy and turned into an oasis of emotion, passion and sex in a desert of hard work. I didn’t expect for him to tie me, gag me, whip me and, well… you can imagine how it goes. But I also didn’t expect for the story to end like this... Warning: A romantic and erotic novel with explict sex (including BDSM), cursing and other topics directed to a more mature audiance.

Brolliology
by Marion RankineA fun, illustrated history of the umbrella's surprising place in life and literatureHumans have been making, using, perfecting, and decorating umbrellas for millennia--holding them over the heads of rulers, signalling class distinctions, and exploring their full imaginative potential in folk tales and novels. In the spirit of the best literary gift books, Brolliology is a beautifully designed and illustrated tour through literature and history. It surprises us with the crucial role that the oft-overlooked umbrella has played over centuries--and not just in keeping us dry. Marion Rankine elevates umbrellas to their rightful place as an object worthy of philosophical inquiry. As Rankine points out, many others have tried. Derrida sought to find the meaning (or lack thereof) behind an umbrella mentioned in Nietzsche's notes, Robert Louis Stevenson wrote essays on the handy object, and Dickens used umbrellas as a narrative device for just about everything. She tackles the gender, class, and social connotations of carrying an umbrella and helps us realize our deep connection to this most forgettable everyday object--which we only think of when we don't have one.

Brontomek
by Michael G. ConeyThe planet Arcadia was on the verge of economic collapse. Its human colony had been decimated by the strange Relay Effect; in the aftermath, still more colonists were leaving for other worlds. The Hetherington Organisation promised to change that. If the remaining colonists put themselves entirely in their hands for a five-year period, they would transform Arcadia into the most prosperous planet settled by mankind, while preserving its great natural beauty.It was an offer the Arcadians could not possibly refuse, for the alternative, after all, was an accelerating slide into poverty and, eventually, savagery. Only when the Hetherington Organisation's first cargo ships arrived, unloading a huge stream of brontomeks - huge robot agricultural machines, heavily armoured - and an army of amorphs, aliens who were capable of moulding themselves into human form, did the colony begin to realise what it had committed itself to.Brontomek! is a sequel to two earlier books, Syzygy and Mirror Image. Like it's predecessors it is an ingenious, adventurous tale of the type which has rapidly made Coney one of SF's foremost entertainers.Brontomek! won the 1977 BSFA award for best novel.
