There's a Pair of Us
Author: Juliene Anne
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1622950011
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Eleven years of marriage boiled down to one truth: the one who had promised fidelity for better or worse, who'd fathered their three children and joined her in quoting Emily Dickinson lines, had been unfaithful. For years Juliene Anne had endured the embarrassment of Lee having one too many drinks and showing too much interest in other women. But she trusted him to never go too far. Until the message she overheard that changed her life. You need to stop coming out here to California, and screwing around with my girlfriend, and screwing around on your wife, and screwing up my life. The ensuing confrontation and painful interactions that followed reinforced Juliene's perception of Lee as the problem. As they struggled to patch up their marriage, she came to a far more startling conclusion: she could choose to be happy. She could choose to love. Regardless of Lee's actions, Juliene could take steps to strengthen her contentment. This honest memoir of a marriage in tatters brings to light a major misconception throughout society: that we are helpless to resist the feelings accompanying life's troubles. Having passed through one of the most trying tests of marriage, Juliene shares her struggles with the hope of one whose marriage has been strengthened through twenty-five years of openness and commitment. Juliene's heartfelt story reinforces the enduring bond of Christian marriage and the faithfulness of God to those who choose to trust his love.

The Firefly Dance
Author: Sarah Addison Allen
Publisher: BelleBooks
ISBN: 1935661302
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
Bright lights flicker in the dark evenings of summer. Pinpoints of hope float against the black descent of night. The sweetest of small and innocent creatures finds its way through the shadows. Fireflies seem to dance on sheer air, illuminating the space between heartbeats. Children give off a similar brave glow, despite the challenges of their young lives. The lessons of childhood are often painful, the shedding of fragile wings in the gloam of an uncertain future. These rich novellas are small jewels reflecting the essence of what it means to grow up dancing among the shadows of life, carrying a brave, small beacon because you know that even the brightest days always, always, end in darkness. Childhood can be so sweetly sad and sadly sweet, profound and deceptively easy to categorize, yet poignant to remember. New York Times bestselling novelist Sarah Addison Allen (GARDEN SPELLS, SUGAR QUEEN, THE PEACH KEEPER) anchors THE FIREFLY DANCE with her wistful and funny novella about Louise, a North Carolina girl whose keen observations of the lives around her weaves an unforgettable spell with just a hint of everyday magic. Phyllis Schieber's Sonya, a child of Holocaust survivors, is confronted with the responsibilities of her legacy when she has a poignant encounter with a classmate, another child of survivors, and her mother, in a local shop in their 1970's New York neighborhood. Kathryn Magendie's Petey deals wryly with her family's move from the cool blue mountains of North Carolina to the hot flatlands of Texas. Augusta Trobaugh's stoic Georgia boy leads us through his surreal encounter with a mysterious backwoods toddler who turns out to be anything but ordinary.

What Was Lost
Author: Melissa Connelly
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1647427851
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Reminiscent of Hello Beautiful and The Lying Life of Adults, this powerful narrative delves into social changes from 1970 to 2000 and captures a woman’s journey in a pre-#MeToo era via the tale of a mother who returns to her hometown to face the perpetrator of her childhood abuse. When a young girl feels complicit in her own abuse, how does that thwart her attempts to build a happy life as an adult woman? When disturbing memories begin to surface, Marti returns to the small Vermont town she ran away from thirty years ago to face her demons. She drags her unwitting teenage daughter along on the journey—heightening already existing tension between mother and daughter. But Marti is determined to achieve what she’s returned home for: forgiveness for lies told, and revenge for secrets held. Exploring the vast social changes that took place between 1970 and 2000 and turning a critical eye on times before language such as #MeToo helped give voice to these all-too-common occurrences, What Was Lost is a raw, powerful tale of one woman confronting the ghosts of her past.
