The Bargain
It was supposed to be a straightforward sacrifice. After their mother was killed by Lord Oeloff, Mattin swore to do anything to protect his sister. When the fae lord came for her, Mattin traded his life and freedom to Oeloff’s enemy for the promise of his sister’s safety. He thought he was prepared for anything. Anything except what he actually found… It was supposed to be a political gambit. Struggling against Oeloff’s latest ploy, Jahlene found an unforeseen opening in the arrival of the bitter Mattin. Bringing the stranger into her household was a risk. Trusting him was a bigger one. To protect her family, Jahlene bargained with him. She never guessed how it would end... Sometimes, what starts as a bargain, becomes something more.
Monogamy? In this Economy?
More and more queer and not-so-queer partners are taking the plunge and deciding to live and parent together. But wait - who lives with who? How do you navigate parenting children? How do you set up your home/finances/bathrooms? Laura Boyle, having interviewed over four hundred people living in every polyamorous configuration under the sun, has the answers for you. Forget 101s on jealousy and New Relationship Energy - this wise and pragmatic guide gets into the nitty gritty of living in polyamorous households long-term.
Polyamorous
A look at how people are giving themselves a choice to love another way. More people than ever are exploring the possibility of opening up their relationships — and not only that, they are fighting for their legal rights to love however and whomever they choose. In Polyamorous, reporter Jenny Yuen digs into how polyamory affects underrepresented communities, why these unions are becoming more normalized, and how relationships with multiple partners can be a practical alternative to monogamy and an intriguing expedition through uncharted emotional territory. Pairing off is no longer the default option for many. For some, polyamory is just a part of who they are.
Fantasy Twists
We all know the story of the little girl who was going to grandma’s house when she met a wolf. What if the girl wasn’t what she seemed? And neither was the wolf? What if it wasn’t a bite that made you a vampire? What if all the scary stories about the old woman at the end of the street were true—and weren’t? Cuil Press asked fantasy authors to take their favorite fantasy and twist it, just a little. This is the result. Stories by: Mara Katz Kelseigh N. Bryan Nickelberry Jess Mahler Kitty Chandler G.H.

Three Dads and a Baby
As a closeted teen, Ian wondered if he would ever fall in love or be able to live openly with a male partner. Years later, he had not one but two partners in a polyamorous throuple, and the support of family, friends, and coworkers. But something was still missing. Spurred by a friend’s donation of two embryos, Ian, Alan, and Jeremy embarked on a sometimes hilarious, sometimes tearful quest to become parents. Along the way, they faced IVF failures, the threat of Zika virus, a battle at their clinic that forced them into an urgent hunt for a new doctor, pregnancy-threatening bleeds, costly legal battles, and a reluctant superior court judge. Ultimately the grace of women—embryo donors, their egg donor, their surrogate, even a surprise milk donor—allowed them to complete their family with one perfect girl. And in fighting for their family, they became the first polyamorous family ever named as the legal parents of a child.

Safer Sex for the Non-Monogamous
Non-monogamous folks talk about the importance of having safer sex alot, but there don't seem to have too many discussions about what it is, how to have it, and what happens when things go wrong anyway.Plus, there seems to be this ideal that safer sex is just about preventing STIs. (And sometimes pregnancy.) Safety in sex is a whole lot more than that. It's injuries, and trauma, and consent, and having some important discussions with other people, and making real choices about what risks you will and won't take, and... well, enough to fill a book.So I did.As usual in these books, I don't offer much in the way of answers. You need to do you. What I offer is a lot of information and some questions to help you figure out what you want to do with that information.
Psychotherapy and the Remote Patient
Learn to tackle the challenge and frustration of working with the patient who eludes the good intentions of even the most seasoned therapist--the remote patient. This book is a treasury of insights, clinical theory, and experiences of seasoned therapists who are eager to describe their journey of frustration and accomplishments with this most shadowy of patients. Experts share their wisdom about these patients who are often thought of as being unworkable because they appear uninterested and ungrateful. A bundle of paradoxes, wanting and avoiding contact, being both present and absent at the same time, the remote patient has the ability to undermine the therapist's confidence and sense of effectiveness
