The Encore
Author: Charity Tillemann-Dick
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1501102338
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
In this “heartrending, passionate, and surprisingly humorous account of the conjunction between art and death” (Andrew Solomon, New York Times bestselling author), acclaimed opera singer Charity Tillemann-Dick recounts her remarkable journey from struggling to draw a single breath to singing at the most prestigious venues in the world after receiving not one but two double lung transplants. Charity Tillemann-Dick was a vivacious young American soprano studying at the celebrated Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest when she received devastating news: her lungs were failing, her heart was three and a half sizes too big, and she would die within five years. Medical experts advised Charity to abandon her musical dreams, but if her time was running out, she wanted to spend it doing what she loved. In just three years, she endured two double lung transplants and had to slowly learn to breathe, walk, talk, eat, and sing again. With new lungs and fierce determination, she eventually fell in love, rebuilt her career, and reclaimed her life. More than a decade after her diagnosis, she has a chart-topping album, performs around the globe, and is a leading voice for organ donation. Weaving Charity’s extraordinary tale of triumph with those of opera’s greatest heroines, The Encore illuminates the indomitable human spirit and is “an uplifting story of overcoming significant odds to fulfill a dream” (Kirkus Reviews).

Book Description
He's hurt a lot of people.She's his last chance at redemption. World-renowned guitarist and hard rock's own Casanova, Dante Martinez, knows about reaping what he's sown. Nearing forty and faced with serious health problems resulting from decades of alcohol and drug abuse, Dante is forced to put his career on hold. He spends his days in therapy, at AA meetings, and consumed by a new hobby-learning how to cook. Women are not part of his rehabilitation plan. At thirty-four, Camille Rockwell thinks she has it all figured out. As a successful businesswoman and a busy single mom, she swore off men years ago and isn't looking for a relationship. That is, until reformed bad boy rock star Dante Martinez buys her fifteen-year-old daughter an expensive gift at a local guitar shop and offers to be her tutor. Dante's instantly smitten with the feisty, overprotective redhead. And although Camille is feeling things she never thought she'd feel again, she doesn't want the complications that come with a man like Dante, nor can she afford to have her daughter get hurt. Only, Dante isn't ready to give up until he's done everything he can to win Camille over. Will Camille be able to resist Dante's charm or will she fall under his spell and let him turn her quiet, idyllic life upside down?
