Excerpt:
“Obesity is the new terrorism,” said Rolph, scraping the sauce off his dinner. He had ordered a marvelous $37.00 roasted trout, substituting broccoli for potatoes. Starch, he believed, was best limited to suits.
Priscilla looked down at her plate in embarrassment; her salad dressing wasn’t on the side. She wondered what she was doing here, with this man, with this plate. So many years she had spent exiled in overweight oblivion - flirting with nothing but the cusp of obesity. Always on the brink. Now here she was, sexy and beautiful, eating dinner with a man who was practically allergic to cellulite.
“I couldn’t agree more,” she replied, raising her glass.
“And might I say,” he offered, lifting his glass up to hers. “You are so much more attractive when you are agreeable.”
He clinked his glass and took a swig. “I find it very feminine.”
Oftentimes, a woman is drawn to man because he fits a particularly unsavory stereotype, a “bad boy” if you will. A domineering, degrading, chauvinistic persona. The kind of man that constantly needs to assert his presence, minimizing hers. She no longer holds any power. Ironically, for the always on-the-go, on-the-clock kind of woman, this can provide a tremendous relief. No longer having to be in control. One of the most disturbing forms of liberation is finding freedom through belittlement.
Deep down, Priscilla was like most women. She knew that victory for the American female was not about living large. It was, in truth, about being immeasurably small."

Story
Scholar and award-winning author Faith Fitzgerald has every reason to be happy: a wealthy, charming man who adores her and a family cheering her marriage prospects. But from the moment she meets Eric's sister, Sydney Van Allen, she knows her safe, predictable feelings for him are a shadow of what could be. Openly lesbian and running for senator, Sydney can only succeed if she can live down her wild past. That means no liaisons, especially with the achingly alluring woman on her brother's arm who looks at her with confusion - and desire.

Story
What's the first thing they teach you in business school? Never let emotions decide your fate. That's how people get hurt. That's how millions lose their jobs. That's how I almost lost everything. When I accepted one of the most highly coveted internships in America, I never expected to fall in love with my boss by the end of the first month. I never expected that my boss, Eric Mann, used to go by another name a long, long time ago. And the woman the world forgot is screaming to come out and speak of the atrocities once wrought upon her life.

Story
The Sebastians own this city. Hell, they own the whole world. All I want is one little piece of it, a corner that I can call my own. So when my boss runs away to “find herself”, I seize the opportunity and dive headfirst into the Sebastian’s glamorous universe. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted—fast-paced and high-stakes—and, even though I don’t fit in, I’m excellent at faking it. Until I come face-to-face with the man in charge, Scott Sebastian, the arrogant playboy heir with the mind of a devil, the body of a god, and a mouth I can’t stop thinking about.

Alternating Quin’s and Margot’s voices and perspectives, Gaitskill creates a nuanced tragicomedy, one that reveals her characters as whole persons - hurtful and hurting, infuriating and touching, and always deeply recognizable.

Ruthless might as well be Gray Bennett’s middle name. When the renowned Washington, D.C. insider talks, powerful people listen. But Gray hasn’t come home to Saranac Lake to play politics. Or play at all. A tragedy has shaken the unshakable Gray Bennett to his hardened core. And so has the most unlikely of women. The mousy redhead who used to run around the Moorehouse B and B - the one he never noticed - is now all fiery hair and lush curves. But sweet Joy Moorehouse is too innocent for a cynic like him.
