DOWNLOAD EBOOKBusting at the seams after months of feeding her face with chocolate, untold carbs and a gazillion calories, Polly Patrick is on a mission. She has just three months to lose weight and get in shape before a very special reunion. Nikolas Kokoris, Polly's personal trainer, is determined to help the sassy, full-figured beauty attain her goal-if his inappropriate, chronic case of lust doesn't kill him first. After three excruciating months of watching her generous breasts jiggle and bounce, and that enticing bottom swing and sway, the handsome Greek is about to detonate. With hot sex at the forefront of Nick's thoughts, he doesn't need exercise to feel the burn. Of course, things aren't always as they seem. Nick has no idea that Polly's been plagued with highly improper thoughts of a distinctly carnal nature about her charming personal trainer. But that's about to change... A seemingly innocent bottle of ouzo, a hilarious case of mistaken identity and Polly's hazardous penchant for role playing all have a hand in turning life as they know it upside down. And oh what a wild ride!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEleven electric stories of lost women, gay men, curious children, and nostalgic adults from the bestselling author of Notes from an Exhibition. A woman tries on a wig and it unlocks a side of herself she never knew existed. Visiting his old boarding school, a man is nearly undone by memories of a romantic encounter with a former classmate. When she introduces her girlfriend to her family, a young woman is shocked by her mother’s all-too-welcoming reaction. These are the stories of Patrick Gale: loving and warm, familiar and surprising, and all crafted with the precise wit that has made him one of Britain’s most beloved authors of short fiction. The eleven stories that make up Dangerous Pleasures reveal the hidden joys and buried agonies that lie behind our friends’ and neighbors’ happy smiles. Gale understands that the moments that can alter our lives forever come quietly, unexpectedly—as soft and innocuous as a platinum-blond wig. The Sunday Times calls Gale’s short fiction “nattily subversive, sexually ambiguous, intelligent and disturbing.” More than anything, his prose displays an unerring sense of humanity, in every brilliant story, and every perfect line.
