Cindy Davis

    Táto autorka sa ponára do tajomstiev vrážd, ktoré kedysi inšpirovali jej tvorbu v chladnejších krajoch Nového Anglicka. Teraz, pod vplyvom floridského slnka, sa jej písanie presunulo k sebarozvoju a metafyzickej fikcii. Tento posun odráža nielen zmenu prostredia, ale aj jej záujem o energiu Zeme a motivačné prednášky, ktoré ju poháňajú k skúmaniu hlbších duchovných tém vo svojich dielach.

      Paige sees her fiancé murder his associate. And he knows she saw. Paige Carmichael must've had a premonition that her life was about to take a turn for the worse. One of the books she read was How to Change your Identity and Hide from Anyone. Then she saw her fiancé murder his best friend and associate. And call in one of his flunkies to remove the body. This wasn't what she signed up for when she agreed to marry Stefano Santangelo. Sure, she knew he was in the mob, but he'd sworn it was numbers running and things like that. Not about to leave the four-year relationship without something to show for it, Paige takes one of his precious antique coins and $750K from his safe, and runs. She changes her hair, her walk, the kinds of foods she eats. Yet, he keeps finding her. One day she meets Christian Charles Beauchamps. Her savior. He's driving a truck to make money to open a landscaping business. He's handsome and charming, and eventually convinces her to confide in him. But when she sees him whispering to a suspicious bearded guy, she takes off again--with all of them hot on her tail. Can Paige finally escape Stefano's grasp and have a normal life? She doesn't want to be next, so she runs, taking $750K from his safe.

    • Many people in my over-55 community are, to quote one of my neighbors, "Waiting to go."Actually, they called Florida "God's waiting room." What! Is that what really happens? I asked around and found out it was. After some thought, I realized I had been too. This book is about how my life changed when I learned to "live life consciously."Because, at the age of sixty-two, I learned I didn't need to lie down and wait for the end to come. It was my choice to go forward...or not. So, I went forward...and joined a dating site.And met someone who changed everything. Realize please, this isn't a dating book. It's how, through interactions with Rick, spiritual books, and journeys to places like Cassadaga, Florida, I learned about self-healing, and that I could literally change my thoughts, to be a more positive and empowering person. That with those changes, life took an entirely new path. How easily things come to you when you learn to let go.On our honeymoon, we visited Mexico's Yucatan villages. And learned that in another life, I just might have been a Mayan.
