Their kind of love knew no barriers — and burned more passionately than any between man and woman!

From the back:

Chris was a top designer in New York’s garment industry. She had talent, beauty, and money. She knew what was natural and right for herself, and had no qualms about being “gay.” That was the way she was made…
But she had a problem—a problem in the delectable, wickedly curved form of her lover, Betty. They’d lived together a long time — but Betty liked to hurt people, to tease and torture the woman who loved her most. She also liked to play both sides of the street…
Then along came Elaine, unhappy in her marriage, unable to find satisfaction with men, but unsure, uncertain…She did not know which way to turn, and she became the focal point of an explosive triangle!

It Was A Desperate Place — Of Women, Guilt, And Desire

From the back:

The girls of Lambda Lambda Lambda…
JOY—who thought study didn’t pay, when there were easier ways to get good grades from a young professor…
KATHRYN—who came from the wrong side of the tracks, and was fair game for anyone who knew it…
CLARA—who knew all about mathematics, but forgot that two and two could add up to trouble…
They burned their candles at both ends, and the glow was magnificent—until the whole campus threatened to go up in smoke.

They paid a terrible price for their kind of love

From the back:

Nikki Carr always prided herself on being “well adjusted” to her lesbianism. Not for her was the man’s shirt and tie. She was as feminine as any girl had a right to be. And as one of the top television producers, she made it a rule never to mix business with pleasure — until Melissa Comstock came into her life. Sweet and innocent, Melissa worked in Nikki’s office and, to her, Nikki was every-thing a successful careerwoman should be. It was an easy step from adoration to love … And for Nikki it was the first step on the road to degradation and shame.

This love was wrong but she could not resist it!

From the back:

No Other Way Was Normal — To Her
And so Kathy strayed the dark and twisted path among the twilight women, doing the strange things her body urged her to do… until —
— until one night she committed the most violent act of her life… and then waited in sick horror while the swift watch-dogs of society hunted her down.
STRANGE SISTERS is the story of an alien world. Never before has it been made so intensely real for adult readers

Only In Secret

Midwood F376 1964

She wondered how she could keep the sordid truth of her tainted past from her husband

From the back:

Face The Facts, Honey…
You wanted to conform. You wanted the normal, happy life that society dictates. You wanted to be a slave to a husband and a kitchen and a bank mortgage. You wanted to submit to routine sex that consists of calloused hands and vulgar grunts and crude maulings and selfish pleasures. You wanted it because everyone told you that was what you were supposed to want. Well, that might be all right for some people but not for you and not for me. We know there’s something a helluva lot better, a helluva lot more satisfying and the sooner you admit it to yourself, the better off you’ll be! We’re two of a kind and deep down in your heart, you know it.
