Book Description
When James Hewitt, a young, brave and gifted soldier, first met Diana, Princess of Wales, he was a young Household Cavalry captain on official business at Buckingham Palace. He was single and alone; she a lonely wife, hurt by a loveless marriage. He supported and cared for her during one of the most troubled times of her life. When news of their affair hit the headlines, James’s life changed dramatically and irreversibly. Used by the Royal Family as a scapegoat for their own uncaring treatment of Diana and cast as the villain of the piece by the newspapers, Hewitt rapidly became one of the most reviled men in the country and remained so for the next ten years. Yet, in a remarkable reversal of fortune, James proved his resilience, rebuilt his life and made a new career for himself both as a civilian and as a celebrity. In 2003, he rose to the challenge of appearing on Channel 4’s The Games. His personality and determination won the nation over – he came second and raised a large sum of money for charity. James’s popularity was cemented when he won the reality TV show Back to Reality. With his celebrity status confirmed, James Hewitt moved on to a new stage of his life and career, ready, as always, to take on the next challenge. As he himself says, ‘I am a forward-thinking character. I don’t want to look back. I accept that not everything I have done has been right. If I have made mistakes I’m sorry about that, but I am moving on.’ His candid autobiography stands in tribute to his charm, good humour and strength of character – and as a tribute to the love that meant so much to Diana at a difficult time.

Book Description
A 2019 Nautilus Silver Book Award Winner You can't fix what you don't see. But with awareness and the right tools, real change can and does happen. No matter how hard we try, many of us struggle to make love work with our partners.

But we don’t have to remain prisoners to our past. Grounded in cutting-edge neuroscience and attachment theory, Loving Like You Mean It shares a proven four-step approach to use emotional mindfulness to break free from old habits, befriend your emotional experience, and develop new ways of relating. The capacity for deep, loving connections is inside all of us, waiting to come out. By practicing the science behind loving like you mean it, your relationships can be fuller and richer than you ever imagined.

The Tree of Knowledge Is Mary’S Sweet Vine
Author: Bella Louise Allen
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1546239553
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
In the twenty-first century, there are few books written as firsthand accounts of the experience of complete abandonment to God. God has brought forward mystics in the past two thousand years of Christianity, individuals totally devoted to him, and the message of divine love and mercy. He has this message for us today. Gods messages come with warning. Warnings remind us that heaven and hell are realthat sin offends and wounds the heart of God. St. Julie Ann, as God calls her, has been a vessel of the Lord since she had her first vision of Jesus Christ in 2006. No words were exchanged. She walked down a hallway and knelt and kissed his feet. Then she had a near-death experience in 2012. God returned her to life after a surgery gone wrong. This was the beginning of her great adventure and passionate love affair with her Lord. Like so many of the chosen ones of God, St. Julie Ann is honest and uncomplicated. She records her experiences in her own words, without theological training. She lives a consecrated life outside of a religious community and struggles to support herself and her children and grandchildren, working three jobs and sacrificing for her family as much of the world does today. Although Bella Louise conveys St. Julie Anns experiences from her daily lessons, visions, and experiences with Jesus Christ and his mother, Mary, the idea of Christ is with us, and Mary within us is a basic belief of Christianity and Catholicism. You will be reminded that the words of love and devotion spoken by Jesus to Julie Ann are words he speaks to all of us. We all could live this great romance! In a world without kindness, Julie Anns teaching from Mother Mary, her words of compassion, and care for the children of the world reminds us that we are always embraced by her maternal heart. By writing this honest and true account, Bella Louise Allen provides you with a compelling portrait of what it means to live with total abandonment to God while struggling to live at the same time in the everyday world.
