Book Description
"What is heaven really like? A recently departed soul speaks from heaven about his experiences on the other side. The unseen author of this book tells us of life’s true purpose and urges us to make the most of our sojourn on earth. He warns us that we are fast approaching a turning point, which could lead to an age of enlightenment and peace or to a future none of us wants to see. If we act now, we can still turn things around...but we need help from heaven. “I have witnessed so many beautiful and amazing events on this side. However, I believe that my greatest opportunity is to urge you to see what you have, where the planet is headed without intervention and how you can make a difference.... I feel an urgency to help people recognize the signs of the times.” This story of a soul’s life after death will change the way you look at life—and death."

Book Description
The perfect wife and mother finds the perfect temptation in this "perfect summer cocktail of sex, sun, and scandal" (Kirkus Reviews). Claire has a problem with setting limits. All her life she has taken on every responsibility, assumed every burden, granted every request. Claire wants it all—and in the eyes of her friends, she has it: a devoted husband, four beautiful children, even a successful career as an artist. So when she agrees to chair the committee for Nantucket's social event of the year, she knows she can handle it. Claire can handle anything. But when planning the gala propels her into the orbit of billionaire Lock Dixon, unexpected sparks begin to fly. Lock insists on working closely with Claire—often over a bottle of wine—and before long she can't ignore the subtle touches and lingering looks. To her surprise, she can't ignore how they make her feel, either. Claire finds the gala, her life, and herself spinning out of control. A Summer Affair captures the love, loss, and limbo of an illicit romance and unchecked passion as it takes us on a brave and breathless journey into the heart of one modern woman. "Think you know where this is going? Think again. Hilderbrand is way too smart to give away the whole story in her title." —Elisabeth Egan, New York Times

Beth Woodson is a thirtythree- year-old cynical, self-centred Londoner who God sends back to earth to make up for her past sins, which include infidelity, being a terrible manager to her staff and a dishonest friend. She has six days to help bring together four couples of different ages and backgrounds, to learn the real values of love, friendship and honour. When you're a cynical, non-committal, couldn't-care-less-aboutchildren, thirty-three year-old woman, how do you help others fall in love? Especially when you possess no angel power and have to be a normal human being again. And if that weren't enough, the devils have been observing Beth. They're furious that God took her to heaven when her selfdestructive madness belongs in hell, so they make it their mission to cause destruction on earth and get her back where she belongs. Matters are further complicated when she falls madly in love with Chris, but has to hide her true identity from him. If Beth succeeds in her goals, her sins will be forgiven and she can return to earth. But if she fails, she'll be condemned to an eternity in hell...

At Heaven's Door
Author: William J. Peters
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982150440
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
A “brilliant and fascinating” (Eben Alexander, MD, author of Proof of Heaven) exploration—rich with powerful personal stories and convincing research—of the many ways the living can and do accompany the dying on their journey into the afterlife. In 2000, end-of-life therapist William Peters was volunteering at the Zen Hospice Project in San Francisco when he had an extraordinary experience as he was reading aloud to a patient: he suddenly felt himself floating midair, completely out of his body. The patient, who was also aloft, looked at him and smiled. The next moment, Peters felt himself return to his body…but his patient never regained consciousness and died. Perplexed and stunned by what had happened, Peters began searching for other people who’d shared similar experiences. He would spend the next twenty years gathering and meticulously categorizing their stories to identify key patterns and features of what is now known as the “shared crossing” experience. The similarities, which cut across continents and cultures and include awe-inspiring visual and sensory effects, and powerful emotional aftershocks. The book is filled with “moving and tender” (Jack Kornfield, PhD, author of A Path with Heart) tales of spouses seeing their loved ones reach the other side after decades together and bereaved parents who share their children’s entry into the afterlife. Applying rigorous research, Peters digs into the effects of these shared crossing experiences impart—liberation at the sight of a loved one finding joy, a sense of reconciliation if the relationship was fraught—and explores questions like: What can explain these shared death experiences? How can we increase our likelihood of having one? What do these experiences tell us about what lies beyond? And, most importantly, how can they help take away the string of death and better prepare us for our own final moments? How can we have both a better life and a better death?
