She'd always been off-limits...and I'd never wanted her more. Gorgeous, loyal, poised, and all grown up. Riya Guliani had been a thorn in my side since we were kids, it seemed not much had changed. Except for the fact she was known in influential circles as "the fixer", and she was back in NYC to clean up a mess. Mine. Who cared that I was a little reckless? I hadn't turned my father's million-dollar company into a billion-dollar empire by doing what was expected of me. But sometimes the unexpected was exactly what we needed. And I needed her in a way I never saw coming....

For Spencer, Ellie has always been his rock. His stability. The one who was there for him in his darkest hour. But he's never thought of her as more than a friend...until now.

Ellie wants a stable life and a white picket fence, so she only dates guys who want that, too. She knows Spencer doesn't do relationships. And besides, high school is over, and he's about to be a US Marine.

Hercules must change his angry and mighty countenance to one of patience and perseverance. Despite the goddess Hera and King Eurystheus presuming the 12 labors they thrust upon Hercules are impossible, our hero accomplishes them, not only because of his strength, but also by using his intelligence, the advice of others, and the help of his friends. Too Much the Hero shows us that "who we were" doesn't stick to us; we can change for the better in our character - to a new and improved “who we are”.

This is the kind of fame at the heart of most lives and at the center of Flenniken’s first collection, the winner of the Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Poetry. Here “a little voice sings / from the back of the auditorium / of my throat. Aren’t all of us / waiting to be discovered?” The poet’s answer is sometimes grave, sometimes comic, but always tuned to the incidental music of daily life.

Er hatte Susan fixiert. Ihr Oberkörper vornübergebeugt auf dem Tisch. Sie trug nichts als schwarzen Samt über Augen und Ohren. Sie war ihm ausgeliefert. Nicht das erste Mal. Und es gefiel ihr. Er sagte, er habe ein Geschenk für sie, nachträglich zum Geburtstag. Sie sagte, sie könne es kaum noch erwarten. Er schob ihr sein Glied in den Mund. Das sei noch nicht alles, ließ er sie wissen. Dann hörte sie hinter sich leise die Tür.

While traversing the universe in pursuit of adventure, profit, and pleasure, the characters in these stories are prone to explore the bodies of the neighboring life forms they meet as much as the planetary bodies.
