Lesbian Lust

Product Information

Her life is in New York, with her photography career finally gaining steam and her bed never empty. Sure, it’s a different woman every night, but that’s just fine with her.

When Erin Stewart hires a fake date for her parents’ anniversary party, she gets more than she bargained for. I haven’t yet had a chance to read Lex Crocher’s first novel in the series, Reputation, but I’ve been so captivated by her take on love and romance in this series from the summaries alone. Talia had let herself be charmed, only to discover that Gareth was also seeing Linden—unbeknownst to either of them. And now she and Linden want revenge. Only one question stands: Is Emmy in? Why is it so hard to see someone like myself on the big screen, instead of, say, a French aristocrat living in near isolation in coastal France in 1770, where our only similarity is our sexuality? Skye wonders if she and Jordy can recapture the spark she knows they had, but Maya has other plans: exposing Jordy and getting revenge. As they navigate the competition, Skye and Maya discover that their real happily ever after is nothing they could have scripted.I had a lot of empathy toward her. She had a rich inner life and she didn't have a lot of outlets," Sevigny told The Advocate about Lizzie, who's depicted as being an avid reader and a patron of the arts. Whenever Todd Haynes’ unspeakably beautiful Patricia Highsmith adaptation comes to mind, it brings some of the novel’s last words along with it: “It would be Carol, in a thousand cities, a thousand houses, in foreign lands where they would go together, in heaven and hell.” In that light, a spot on a list of the decade’s best films hardly seems like much of a reach. Sure, there are undead serial killers after them, but in the beginning, their breakup and subsequent fighting are the real drama. In fact, Deena and Sam aren’t very healthy for each other, but running from multiple serial killers and unraveling the mystery of their town’s haunting reignite the love between them. By the end of the trilogy, they’re fighting for their lives and for each other. Our protagonists might have an imperfect love that has literally caused their night of horror, but somehow, it works. Maybe lesbian horror is a genre all its own. But as Liz and Daria wind up having to spend more and more time together, Liz starts to see a softer side to Daria—she’s funny, thoughtful, and likes the way Liz’s gender presentation varies between butch and femme.

Gray Ferris is extroversion personified. Bubbly. Conversational. Vibrant. She’s trying to make the best of life, even if it hasn’t always gone her way.But when Valeria begins to reciprocate romantic interest in Luna, the act begins to crumble—straining her relationship with Romy and leaving her job prospects precarious. Tired of her stepfamily’s questions about her love life, Tansy invents Gemma, a fake girlfriend inspired by the stunning cover model on a bestselling book. But Rose is altogether different. She’s curvy, beautiful, and just so put together. And her business expertise might be Ash’s best bet for getting her last film—and her last chance—financed. Books are Rosie Taft’s life ever since she took over her mother’s beloved Manhattan bookstore. The only thing missing is her own real-life romance like the ones she loves to read about, though she’s hoping the flirty online friendship with lesbian romance author Brie could turn into something more. Kena (Samantha Mugatsia) and Ziki (Sheila Munyiva) are the daughters of two rival Nairobi politicians who fall in love in the 2018 movie Rafiki. This film about young love in the face of adversity strikes a chord. But watching these two girls fall in love and fight for their love to the end is poignant and moving.

Liz Baker and her three roommates work at theNether Fields,a queer magazine in New York that’s on the verge of shutting down—until it’s bought at the last minute by two wealthy lesbians. All they have to do is convince their friends and family they’re getting married in six weeks. If anyone guesses they’re not for real, they’re out. Hollywood life seems to be a popular setup for recent contemporary lesbian romance books and this one is no different. Having raised her eleven-year-old daughter mostly on her own while dealing with her unreliable ex and running a bookstore, Claire Sutherland depends upon a life without surprises. And Delilah Green is an unwelcome surprise…at first. Despite period pieces being more expensive to produce (The outfits! The props! The research!) this curiosity of how people, particularly marginalized people, used to live, pervades the mainstream—seemingly more so than how people live and struggle now.

‘Crush’

Nora Gallagher can begrudgingly admit that she and Gray Ferris are both stellar Philadelphia real estate agents, but that’s the beginning and the end of the similarities between them. Eden Sands has been a star for twenty years, but it’s lonely at the top. Her mediocre marriage just ended, and her inner circle is smaller than ever. The stage is the only place she’s ever felt like she truly belonged, and yet, her last album flopped, and her upcoming tour hasn’t sold out. Margot Cooper doesn’t do relationships. But when she comes face-to-face with Olivia Grant—her childhood friend, her first love, her first… well, everything, she’s not so sure about that stance. Grace Henderson has been a star of the US Women’s National Team for ten years, even though she’s only 26. But when she’s sidelined with an injury, a bold new upstart, Phoebe Matthews, takes her spot.
