Summary

Inspiring quotes and advice to help readers see getting older as a time for reinvention and personal growth. 
 
“Aging is an extraordinary process where you become the person you should have been.” —David Bowie 
 
 So long nostalgia, and goodbye resignation! This book of quotes reminds us that growing old isn’t about slowing down and taking it easy—it’s a chance to ask, “What’s next?”  After all, sixty is the new fifty, seventy’s the new sixty, and older is getting younger every day. With fun, forward-looking, and inspiring wisdom, So Who’s Counting? is the ideal gift for baby boomers, Gen Xers or anyone reaching a major age milestone. Instead of cloying sentimentality or the standard sagging-body-part jokes, it strikes the perfect balance of humor, guidance, reflection, bon mots. Quotes are divided into nine sections, such as “As Old as You Feel,” “Laughter: The Best Prescription,” and “Aged to Perfection.” So Who’s Counting? is all about aging with gusto and celebrating what lies ahead.
Available since: 04/09/2019.

    It is a well-established truth that convenient scapegoats will always appear when it is the least convenient. Brimming with high styled wit and well-tailored jocularity, Wilde’s symphonious comedy of errors is a satisfying delight. ¶ Freely adapting Wilde’s play for the audiobook format, BJ Harrison presents a tale that is wildly entertaining while remaining true to the original material.  No Bumbries will escape unscathed, though a dead brother may make an appearance when, of course, it is absolutely the least convenient.

    I love three things in this world more than life itself: 
1. My family and housemates (both current and former) 
2. Musicals 
3. My best friend, Eric Moody 
The first two are no surprise to anyone who knows me. 
The third is a secret I’ll carry to my grave. 
Because even though Eric fits in well with my crazy family and he’s the outgoing complement to my quiet self, we want different things. I want him. He wants something I can never give. And I refuse to sacrifice his happiness for my own. 
Most of the time, I manage to keep my feelings for him under lock and key. 
But things change when Eric moves in with me temporarily. 
Now, he’s here all the time. And it’s harder and harder not to imagine what life together could be like … if only. The final straw? When he starts helping me prepare for my (forced) lead role in a local musical. 
Because yeah. You try holding back the tidal wave of feelings you’ve been keeping at bay when your sexy best friend offers to “practice kiss” you. 
My fortitude is headed straight for the edge of a cliff—and the thrill of the impending fall has never felt so electrifying. Or so terrifying. 
Perfect for fans of: 
✔️flirtatious banter 
✔️best friends to lovers 
✔️temporary roommates 
✔️musical theater references 
✔️found family 
✔️attractive goofball heroes 
✔️“practice” kissing between best friends 
Belonging With Her Best Friend is Book 4 in the California Dreamin’ sweet romantic comedy series. Each story stands alone, but you will get more enjoyment out of them if you listen in order. This single-POV novel is filled with all the sizzling romantic tension and swoons possible without on-page intimacy.
