Meet the men of BeefCake, Inc.! Girls' Night Out never tasted so good! Volume Two - A two-book collection from the BeefCake, Inc. series, with a bonus short story! Beefcake & Mistakes But when Juliet's beloved grandmother has a stroke, Tanner agrees to pretend to be a happily married couple one last time, just until she's well enough to handle the news that her favorite couple is calling it quits for good. But seven years of separation have changed a lot of things. Is it enough for the once-bitten-twice-shy Tanner to reconsider and risk a retake on the one woman who never stopped loving him? Beefcake & Snowflakes Gina had a crush on Darien since before she could remember until the day he'd humiliated her in school. Fifteen years later, the sight of him still leaves her cold. Exotic dancer Darien has come back to town to set a few things to rights. One of those is the mess he made for Gina during their teenage years... and maybe rekindle the flames they'd once had. But the only way to melt the snow around Gina's heart is to turn up the heat, both on the job... and off. Sweet as Candy Candy has been misjudged her entire life, thanks to the blonde hair, pretty face, and kickass body Mother Nature has bestowed upon her, and, in her experience, most men can't see beyond them to the woman inside. So when sexy exotic dancer Jaden Carter offers her some dopey pick-up line, she's not interested—well, in the pick-up line. In him? Totally different story. But only the man who appreciates her brains will be the guy to win her heart. But then Jaden proves he's more than a pretty face, and she realizes no one should ever judge a book by its (very sexy) cover.

There are two kinds of women in the world - those I can bang, and those I can't. My teammate's sister? She's a can't. I moved in with her to protect her from a nasty ex, not to be the next guy in line. She's the brains. I'm the brawn. She's the fruit. I'm the sausage. She talks too much. I don't talk at all, if I don't have to. Should be easy to resist her. But every minute I spend with Felicity is another minute she gets under my skin. She makes me feel like something more than a dumb puckhead with a big Zamboni pony. And it's getting harder to remember why I need to keep my hands to myself. Beauty and the Beefcake is a vegan-friendly standalone romantic comedy featuring a hockey player whose vocabulary is the only thing smaller than a hockey puck, a book-smart but aimless ventriloquist with too many voices in her head, a dilapidated old house that may or may not be haunted, and no cheating or cliffhangers.

In 1951, a new type of publication appeared on newsstands—the physique magazine produced by and for gay men. For many men growing up in the 1950s and 1960s, these magazines and their images and illustrations of nearly naked men, as well as articles, letters from readers, and advertisements, served as an initiation into gay culture. The publishers behind them were part of a wider world of “physique entrepreneurs”: men as well as women who ran photography studios, mail-order catalogs, pen-pal services, book clubs, and niche advertising for gay audiences. Such businesses have often been seen as peripheral to the gay political movement. In this book, David K. Johnson shows how gay commerce was not a byproduct but rather an important catalyst for the gay rights movement. Offering a vivid look into the lives of physique entrepreneurs and their customers, and presenting a wealth of illustrations, Buying Gay explores the connections—and tensions—between the market and the movement. With circulation rates many times higher than the openly political “homophile” magazines, physique magazines were the largest gay media outlets of their time. This network of producers and consumers helped foster a gay community and upend censorship laws, paving the way for open expression. Physique entrepreneurs were at the center of legal struggles, especially against the U.S. Post Office, including the court victory that allowed full-frontal male nudity and open homoeroticism. Buying Gay reconceives the history of the gay rights movement and shows how consumer culture helped create community and a site for resistance.

Hardcore porn - both the straight and gay varieties - entered mainstream American culture in the 1970s as the sexual revolution swept away many of the cultural inhibitions and legal restraints on explicit sexual expression. The first porn movie ever to be reviewed by Variety, the entertainment industry's leading trade journal, was Wakefield Poole's Boys in the Sand (1971), a sexually-explicit gay movie shot on Fire Island with a budget of $4000. Moviegoers, celebrities and critics - both gay and straight - flocked to see Boys in the Sand when it opened in mainstream movie theaters in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Within a year, Deep Throat, a heterosexual hardcore feature opened to rave reviews and a huge box office - exceeding that of many mainstream Hollywood features. Almost all of those involved in making ''commercial'' gay pornographic movies began as amateurs in a field that had virtually never existed before, either as art or commerce. Many of their ''underground'' predecessors had repeatedly suffered arrest and other forms of legal harassment. There was no developed gay market and any films made commercially were shown in adult x-rated theaters. After the Stonewall riots and the emergence of the gay liberation movement in 1969, a number of entrepreneurs began to make gay adult movies for the new mail order market. The gay porn film industry grew dramatically during the next thirty years and transformed the way men - gay men in particular - conceived of masculinity and their sexuality. Bigger Than Life tells that story.
