Pacific Nights
by Lynn LorenzAt the beginning of WWII in the Pacific, two unlikely heroes are thrown together on a deserted island. Their mission, to intercept Japanese radio transmissions, spot enemy ships and aircraft, and stay alive for three months until their replacements show up. Sargent Mike Dabrowski is a man forced into this mission—do it or spend the rest of the war in the brig for selling contraband on the black market. He’s the complete opposite of the man he’s been charged to keep alive. Mike is part criminal, part soldier, and a lot rough around the edges, but he’s got the survival skills, and the grit and experience necessary to do the job. Professor James Hamilton, Ph.D., is an intellectual, a man who can speak Japanese and break codes. He’s also a conscientious objector. His refusal to kill another human has landed him here, putting his skills to good use in the war effort. Until he finds himself alone on an island with what his wealthy family would call “rough trade.” Together they have to survive, do their jobs, and get along. But on a steamy deserted island, those Pacific nights can get long, lonely and so so hot. They’ll make it, but only if they can get past their misconceptions about each other and allow the heat that flows between them to bubble to the surface. As long as the Japanese don’t find them first.

La Página Central
by Kathleen HopeLe desabroché lentamente los pantalones y se los bajé por las caderas. Hola, gruesa polla se balanceó con orgullo, ahora liberada de los confines de sus pantalones. Lo agarré y comencé a acariciarlo desde la base hasta la punta. Brock gimió y empujó como la parte de atrás de mi cabeza de nuevo. Sabía lo que quería pero quería jugar un momento. -Amigo, no tenemos mucho tiempo --susurró Brock con urgencia-. Hazlo. Dejé de jugar con él obedientemente y me lo metí en la boca. Su gemido fue como música para mis oídos mientras me ponía a trabajar en él. Alterné chupar con largos barridos de mi lengua contra su carne dura y aterciopelada. Brock parecía disfrutar de lo que estaba haciendo si sus gimiendo y empujando las caderas eran una indicación ...

Paint It Today
by Hilda Doolittle Cassandra LaityThis novel, a never before published Roman a clef by the famous imagist writer, H.D. (Hilda Doolittle), that explores H.D.'s love for women, is a lyrical recreation of the love and loss of her friend and first love, Frances Gregg, and of her later meeting with Bryher who was to become H.D.'s lifelong companion. Spanning the years from H.D.'s childhood in Pennsylvania to the birth of her daughter, Perdita, in 1919, this turbulent love story is set against the backdrop of World War I, H.D.'s involvement in early 20th century London literary circles, her brief engagement to American poet, Ezra Pound, and her shattered marriage to British novelist Richard Aldington. Paint it Today is H.D.'s most lesbian novel, a modern, homoerotic tale of passage which focuses almost entirely on the young heroine's search for the sister love which would empower her spiritually, creatively, and sexually. Cassandra Laity's introduction places H.D.'s love for the sexually magnetic, betraying Gregg and for the more nurturing and loyal Bryher in the context of the lesbian romanticism of early modern fiction. Her annotations of all Greek references and literary quotations, as well as biographical facts represented in the text, provide nuance and detail to this engrossing work.
