In the tradition of Persepolis and American Born Chinese, a wise and funny high school heroine comes of age. Tina M., sophomore, is a wry observer of the cliques and mores of Yarborough Academy, and of the foibles of her Southern California intellectual Indian family. She's on a first-name basis with Jean-Paul Sartre, the result of an English honors class assignment to keep an “existential diary.” Keshni Kashyap’s compulsively readable graphic novel packs in existential high school drama—from Tina getting dumped by her smart-girl ally to a kiss on the mouth (Tina’s mouth, but not technically her first kiss) from a cute skateboarder, Neil Strumminger. And it memorably answers the pressing question: Can an English honors assignment be one fifteen-year-old girl’s path to enlightenment?

Tina lived in a time when there was no name or diagnosis for mental illnesses nor an understanding of the various types of mental ailments and treatment for them. As the years passed, the medical science of mind matters, psychiatry, and help for dysfunctional personalities came into its own. Today, in our modern world, there is help and medical professionals trained to work in the field of the human mind. So many trigger points and causes lead to these behavior patterns—from trauma to the simple struggle of living day by day with all that this brings to us. Some of us are more resilient, more able to deal with stress and strain. Many are not for a variety of reasons and causes. Please consider her story, and if you identify with her or you see that your loved one or a family member does, please be brave and reach out for help. Make the choice deliberately and on purpose to get the help you need. Don’t waste time waiting for later and, while you do, destroy those around you and your own chance to be happy and to heal.

A K-9 handler determined to prove she belongs. A detective with an unwavering plan. Can they overcome their painful pasts and accept the gift of love? Tina West has spent her life feeling like she stood on the outside, but since taking a job at Stryker Security, life seems to be turning for the better.

Yet, when her boss shows up with a retired military dog and the opportunity to train with him, Tina snatches up the chance to help those who are lost. If she saves enough people, maybe she could find meaning in a life that left her with nothing but a bruised heart and a tarnished picture of family. As holiday festivities loom before her, she wonders if she’ll ever shuck the regrets that haunt her dreams and keep her from connecting with others. Milo Bishop’s every move has been to take care of his mom and younger brother. Since his father’s murder, Milo has worked hard to make sure his mom and brother were provided for. He joined the police force straight out of high school, took night classes so he could move up to investigator, and put his life on hold until his brother graduated from college. But when he is rescued on Thanksgiving Day by Tina West, his well-laid plans take a sharp detour. When a series of kidnappings threaten to ruin the holidays, can Tina and Milo put aside their doubts and find the abducted children before it’s too late?

Will Milo put his desires above his family’s needs when a chance at love catches him by surprise? If you like nail-biting adventure, fascinating characters, and engaging stories of triumph, you'll love Sara Blackard's riveting Christmas romantic suspense.

Tina is bored working in Sasaki Industries’ production department. The Japanese company manufacture sex toys and companion dolls, in England, for the high end of the market. Her job in quality control involves inspecting the products, like dildos, for flaws before they are packaged and dispatched to customers. The job pays well and because Tina hadn’t seen another job she fancied, she stayed on at Sasaki. She had been working at S.K.I. for over a year and was getting itchy feet. Then, she spotted an announcement on the Firm’s noticeboard. Fulltime Research Assistant Required. All female members of staff may apply. Interviews start on Friday. Contact Miss Evans in the Personnel Department. Tina wondered if the new job has something to do with trying out the company’s sex toys. At first, such a thought was enough to put her off applying. Then, after giving it some thought, Tina decides to take the plunge and find out for herself, just what goes on in the mysterious research and development department. What Tina doesn’t know is that Sasaki Industries want to make a new Companion Doll for the Asian market in her image. In this first part, Tina discovers that the company are far more interested in her body than her mind. Because this story involves descriptions of sexual and disciplinary situations, it is only suitable for mature adults over 18.
