Everybody has a story...These are ours... by Audrey N Lewis

Title: Everybody has a story...These are ours...

Blub:

Family relationships. Friendships. Finding our Place. This collection is a series of narratives exploring events, experiences and memories. Each short work, while unique, brings the reader in touch with the inner monologue of the characters bringing their reality to life. Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, Daughter, Son, Wife, and Husband – this book pulls together seven independent stories into a compelling, and thought-provoking anthology. While the focus is on the women – the men in these stories provide an interesting counterpoint. Readers meet: Lexi’s mom, as she struggles to understand her daughter; Abigail, now grown, remembering her nanny Chamele and the life lessons she shared; a sister trying to forge an adult relationship with a once-adored older sibling; a woman finding beauty in a place others have forgotten; another woman finding a true understanding of what holds meaning to her; Claire, the empty-nester and her “girls night out” group with an unusual twist, and Megan – lost but not forgotten. But don’t judge a book by its cover, in each story nothing is exactly as it seems.

Finding Love & Commitment in the Culture of Self-Gratification by Zofie Kae

Description:

Stop wasting your time with losers and find your Mr. Right!

Are you tired of playing the dating game, but getting nothing in return? Are you ready to find true love and commitment? Do you want to find a great husband and have a long, happy marriage?

Here’s the problem: you’re not married, but you want to be. You’re doing everything right. You’re the perfect girlfriend. You’ve mastered the whole “lady on the streets, freak in the sheets” thing. You’ve mastered every sexual position in the Kama Sutra. You’ve dieted yourself to perfection, or at least as close to perfection as you’re going to get. You wear all the right clothes. You are doing everything right. You’re an amazing person, and you know you’d make a great wife. But why can’t men see that? Why aren’t they jumping to propose to you?

The answer is simple. It’s not your fault. The problem is that women have been fed lies for our entire lives and we just never realized it. Popular magazines like Cosmo and Glamour have betrayed us. We’ve done everything right, but all along we never realized that we were preparing ourselves to be men’s playthings, rather than their equal partners. We turned ourselves into every man’s fantasy, but no one taught us how to command men’s respect for us. Even worse, no one taught us how to respect ourselves. Now it’s time for us to change all of that. It’s time to reclaim our power and take control of our destinies.

You deserve to find true love and true happiness. Together, we will make this dream a reality!

Finding Love & Commitment in the Culture of Self-Gratification will help you to find a happy and healthy relationship without compromising yourself. You can take control of your romantic future with Zofie’s three step plan to love and commitment. In this book you will learn:

• Exactly why it is so difficult to find a good husband
• Easy lifestyle changes you can make to increase your chances of finding the right guy
• How to command respect from men
• How to overcome low self-esteem and learn to love yourself
