"""Ka-ma,"" one of the four goals of Hindu life, means sensual or sexual pleasure. ""Su-tra"" means a thread or line that holds things together; metaphorically, an aphorism or a collection of aphorisms in the form of a manual. Thus, the Kama Sutra is literally a manual of sexual pleasure, but also a discussion of virtuous and gracious living, and of love. This ancient Indian Hindu text is the standard work on human sexual behavior in Sanskrit literature. It was composed between 2,400 and 1"
Nathan's was closed! That was the final straw... or so Roberta thought.After her husband left for a younger woman, a Nathan's hot dog would have been just the thing to cheer her up. Instead, late at night in a truck stop food court, she commiserated with four other depressed women: Susie, whose boyfriend fled when she mentioned marriage. Sylvia, who'd been duped out of her house by an evil step-daughter. Ellie, fired by the boss she'd been sleeping with. And Gloria, the attorney whose husband had been cheating on her... with Ellie.As the sun rises, Roberta discovers her car has been towed, and accepts a ride on the back of gun-toting Mario's Harley. Then Sylvia and Gloria move in with Roberta, and before she can catch her breath, her serial-fainter, ultra-religious twin sister Marlene-and Marlene's gay daughter-unexpectedly show up at her front door.The Rejects is a laugh-out-loud, heart-warming, fast-paced story of unique and lovable characters, and the challenges they undertake to improve their lives and make themselves into stronger, more independent women.

Leonie thought she'd murdered her famous, wealthy husband."I killed him," she wails to her friend Ann. "I let him eat chocolate ice cream, even though the doctor said it'd kill him. Then, when his face dropped in the bowl, I just left him there, and he drowned."Leonie didn't kill him, of course, but after the wake-with its memorable and delicious chocolate brown theme-she learns that he'd gambled away all their money. Now she wishes she had, indeed, done the dirty deed.A former waitress in a truck stop, she isn't equipped to earn enough to keep up the mansion she shared with her husband, but her friends talk her into putting her home to work. Specifically, the home becomes a bordello-spa with one important difference: here, the women are serviced by the men."All we have to do is get the mayor's and police chief's wives to join the club and nobody can touch us," Ann says. She's right, but life at the mansion turns out to be anything but idyllic. There are police raids, a nosy, dog hating woman living next door, and a houseful of gorgeous hunks trying to make every woman's fantasies come true.The trials, the tribulations, and adventures of Leonie and her friends will have you laughing out loud. You won't put down this entertaining caper of a book until you've finished every last page.
