Reagan Forrester wants out - out of her trailer park, out of reach of her freeloading mother, and out of the shadow of the relationship that made her the pariah of Charytan, Kansas.Victoria Reyes wants in - in to a fashion design program and a sorority, in to the arms of a cute guy who doesn't go to Charytan High, and in to a city where she won't stand out for being Mexican.One thing the polar-opposite best friends do agree on is that wherever they go, they're going together. But when they set off on a series of college visits at the start of their senior year, they quickly see that the future doesn't look quite like they expected. After two years of near-solitude following the betrayal of the ex-boyfriend who broke her heart, Reagan falls hard and fast for a Battlestar Galactica-loving, brilliant smile-sporting pre-med prospective... only to learn she's set herself up for heartbreak all over again. Meanwhile, Victoria realizes everything she's looking for might be in the very place they've sworn to leave.As both Reagan and Victoria struggle to learn who they are and what they want in the present, they discover just how much they don't know about each other's pasts. And when each learns what the other's been hiding, they'll have to decide whether their friendship has a future.

Book Description
She already left one fiancé. She didn’t need another. When Bree Garrett’s former college roommate invites Bree to move to Starlight Ridge, a small tourist town on the Californian coast, she is all too happy to leave the deserts of New Mexico and the memories of her former life. She only has three conditions: One- No one can find out about her fear of water—totally embarrassing when you live next to the ocean. Two- No seafood. She can't stomach it. Yeah, she sees the irony of points number one and two. Three- No blind dates. The last thing she needs is a relationship. Her ex-fiancé would agree. Easier said than done when the only job available is at a surf shop and the owner, Caleb, is under the impression that Bree has applied to be a scuba instructor, and not a cashier, as she had intended. Bree tries to clear up the misunderstanding, but it’s hard when she seems to lose her voice—and her breath—every time Caleb is near. How could she not when he happens to be attractive, single and, as it turns out, also doesn't like seafood? Bree and Caleb struggle against the pull of the tide that seems determined to bring them together. But, despite their differences, maybe this is one battle that is okay to lose. Diving into Love is the first book in the Starlight Ridge romance series. If you can’t get enough of witty banter, moonlit strolls on the beach, and swoon-worthy kisses, you’ll love this sweet romance. Buy Diving into Love and start this small-town romance series today!

Jacob Tarrant, a 50-year-old single man had a problem. He was an adult baby and the drives and desires that consumed him had reached the stage where he now felt that he had to deal with them. And so he went to Dr Helena, a well-known clinical psychiatrist with the goal of being cured - whatever that meant. He no longer wanted to be an adult baby. If he couldn't have what he wanted and to be a baby for a loving mummy, he wanted to be rid of it entirely. Dr Helena was a third-generation psychiatrist who had heard of adult babies but didn't really know much about them, like so many of her colleagues. Intrigued by the challenge, she attempted the well-tried technique beloved of parents of teenagers who had tried smoking. She decided to give him full-time babying for a week or two so that he would see that it wasn't really what he wanted after all. Then, she could treat the core problem once he realised that he didn't really want to be a baby at all. A nice idea. But it backfired. Read on to see what happened.
