By Whittington, Harry
Greenwich CT: Fawcett Publications (Gold Medal k1303). Near Fine. 1963. 1st Edition (pbo). Softcover. [nice tight copy, uncreased spine, light external scuffing to covers, some faint diagonal soft creasing at bottom right corner of front cover, agency name rubber-stamped on front endpaper]. Mass Market PB "An Original Gold Medal Book," one of many turned out by this prolific author of trashy pulp fiction during the 1950s and 1960s. This one is about a "guy who was known as Big Daddy Sex, sniffing out all the broads for miles around," and with some serious anger-management issues, to wit: "He'd been a blister of hurt and rages, ready to burst, and even then she'd [his long-suffering lover, self-described as his "doormat, secretary, armor, weapon, everything you needed"] known he needed something more." (The "something more" being Joanne Stark, "tease and tramp," whose "wildness was enough to warn a guy smart enough to sense the warning" -- which our protagonist, Clay Stuart, apparently was not.) .
