A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

Annie Phillips is traveling to Tucson, looking for buyers for her family's cattle. She is looking forward to a peaceful trip, but that all changed after she heard her first Apache war cry. Hayden McCloud is rotting away behind bars for a crime he never committed. Since being locked up in the notorious hellhole called Yuma Territorial Prison, Hayden has dreamed of escaping and tracking down the men who wrongfully imprisoned him. One day someone pays the territorial governor a handsome sum of money to pardon Hayden and release him from the hellhole he's been rotting away in. Not knowing who paid the governor to pardon him, Hayden sets out for Tucson to find those responsible for setting him up for a crime he never committed. He wants revenge for his wrongful imprisonment and is determined to get it. Both Hayden and Annie must travel through the hot desert landscape of the Arizona Territory, where an Apache uprising has just broken out. Will they both make it to Tucson safely so they can pursue their reasons for going there? Or will they be taken prisoner, tortured, and then killed by hostile Apache warriors who love scaring their enemies with the Apache war cry?

When Valerie opened her bleary eyes after a night of heavy drinking, she did not expect to find herself in a mental hospital… She did not expect to find all her limbs restrained to the bed… And she definitely did not expect to find herself wearing a big, puffy, adult diaper! Of course, that was merely the start of Valerie’s endlessly humiliating, infantile treatment, now that she’d found herself legally committed to St. Joseph’s psychiatric ward. But despite her nightmarish circumstances, Valerie soon experiences a glimmer of hope when she’s greeted by a kindly hospital care worker who goes by the name Mrs. Godmother. Valerie is greatly comforted by the maternal woman, even despite the woman coaxing an immensely embarrassed Valerie into using her diaper… However, things take a turn for the worse when Mrs. Godmother seemingly disappears, and Valerie is discovered in her diaper by the hospital’s doctor on duty. Suddenly, Valerie’s story about being told to use her diaper by a mysterious, kindly old woman is met with unexpected skepticism, and Valerie soon realizes she’s being treated like she’s totally crazy. Before she knows it, Valerie is being diagnosed with big, scary words she doesn’t understand, and transferred to something called the ‘maximum-security psychiatric ward’ to treat her so-called ‘severe infantile regression disorder’. As Valerie finds herself descending further and further into the clutches of the diaper asylum’s dominating doctors and nurses—forced to use diapers 24/7, sleep strapped to a crib, and eat nothing but baby food—she becomes more and more desperate to find Mrs. Godmother and prove her sanity. And that shouldn’t be too hard, because Valerie knows she’s not actually a totally crazy, helplessly regressing, diaper-dependent adult-baby… Right? Right?? This full-length erotic ABDL novel will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. For mature readers only!
