Book Description
“If she makes it ... she’ll never walk again.” What do we do when we are facing the unthinkable? How do we beat the odds? For fifteen-year-old LeRae, a grim prognosis and an unknown outcome would have her at the precipice of a scary, lonely, excruciatingly painful, and terrifying experience. In Love, Strength, Faith, authors LeRae S. Faulkner and her mother, Beauty H. Faulkner, share a love story overflowing with heartache, mystical-magical miracles, and the hope that lingered softly between the breath of life and the peace of death. When LeRae is diagnosed with an advanced stage of Guillain-Barré syndrome, she and her mother would begin a journey filled with not only their stories but the stories of health-care workers, family, friends, healers, and all the amazing people who would play vital roles in helping LeRae get through this life-changing experience. Through all her suffering, LeRae would find love, strength, and faith within herself, which ultimately kept her fighting for her life. And knowing instinctively that she would be unable to get better on her own, LeRae would welcome all that was offered to her through both modern and alternative medicine. Join LeRae and Beauty as they chronicle their journey from crisis to healing—a journey that can inspire hope and remind us just how precious life is.

My memoir is a story of redemption, freedom from fears, my ego, and one of love and forgiveness. It is more than a story of falling in love with my now husband, although that was the classroom. But it is a story of questioning how we all can experience and know joy, without any particular thing going on, but rather finding it within.

Pages : 101
Book Description
Its scary to know that we have no control over anything except ourselves, and yet, this truth is our greatest strength. You see, everything changes as we change. We see, hear, understand and experience differently through new beginnings. When we choose knowing truth over illusions, we naturally accelerate our growth through the unconditional loving support which has been with us always. There is so much that our Universe wants us to know about who we really are and what we can achieve! Perhaps we have misunderstood the purpose of our pain and the many injustices we have experienced already. Truth easily brings correction and supports a natural balance. As our perspectives shift through what is truth, the love, compassion, empathy and patience within us expands outwards, creating new loving beginnings for our relationships and experiences.

Book Description
**THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER** "An unforgettable—and Hollywood-bound—new thriller... A mix of Hitchcockian suspense, Agatha Christie plotting, and Greek tragedy." —Entertainment Weekly The Silent Patient is a shocking psychological thriller of a woman’s act of violence against her husband—and of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive. Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London. Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations—a search for the truth that threatens to consume him....
