She knows that she has some differences of philosophy with the land dykes, but they can work it out for one weekend, right? WRONG! FIrst, her dominatrix lover Stacy shows up unexpectedly.

Confessions Of A Casanova
by Chris KenryTony doesn't mean to fall in and out of love so easily; it's just a habit. Of course, loving so many men also has its unfortunate side effects, namely ex-boyfriends. Like Boyfriend #6, the DJ whose daily radio show is a barrage of not-so-flattering songs designed to tell the world what a cad Tony is. When Tony isn't collecting his belongings from the front lawn of a shrieking, cursing ex, he's using his art school degree to knock-off impressionist murals for rich socialites in order to get by. And sometimes, he indulges himself in his only repeat boyfriend, Peter, a beautiful Dane who can't seem to stop loving Tony even as Tony can't seem to stop hurting him. But suddenly, Tony's luck is changing. The Casanova's charms are wearing off and Tony's mad whirl of a life is slowing down just long enough for the pain to catch up. As the collateral damage mounts, Tony thinks he just may have found The One. Now, with the clock ticking and the playbook out the window, Tony's putting everything he has on a last chance at real happiness. And this time, he's going to have to go after it as if his heart, soul, and life depend upon it...
Open House (Helen Black Mysteries #4)
by Pat WelchTo most people, a call in the middle of the night means family trouble. But Helen Black's family disowned her years ago. But the call is indeed from Helen's family. Great Aunt Ruth has passed on, and, inexplicably, left Helen her house. And so Helen journeys from Berkeley, from partner Frieda, to return to her roots in Mississippi. To look once more into the face of the father who repudiated her. Into the face of the woman who was her childhood sweetheart and is now a cop. But Helen finds far more than she could ever imagine. A dying grandfather, and small town secrets, one of them contained in the very house that is now hers. She finds murder, and submerged intrigue that harkens all the way back to a deeply stained period of history in the American south.

My Lesbian Husband
by Barrie Jean BorichBarrie Jean Borich's memoir of her 14-year marriage is a subtle exploration of gender and the intricacies of butch-femme desire. My Lesbian Husband describes Borich's attraction to her partner, Linnea, and the slow building of their life together in a decaying neighborhood in Minneapolis. Borich traces both the pleasures and the wrenching difficulties of trying to construct a long-term union in the absence not only of legal and social but of everything that our aunts and uncles and parents take for granted: "names for their union in every language, the weddings of a square-chested prince and a big-busted, cinch-waisted princess at the end of every Disney movie, every Shakespeare comedy, not to Mary and Joseph, Hera and Zeus, and those little bride and groom figurines they have saved from their wedding cakes." This is as sharply observed and well-written a memoir as Jan Clausen's and Oranges, but a valentine rather than a valediction.
