This review is from: Letters of Love: Stories from the Heart (Paperback)

Letters of Love was a voyage of laughter and tears that I undertook with a group of folks who shared their own unique experiences of love's blessings with me. As the publisher's introduction says, this isn't just about romantic love, in the traditional sense, but about real people, with real challenges, real heartbreak, real healing and real triumph.

Sometimes Letters of Love whispered to me, sometimes it shouted, but it always touched a chord within and has stayed with me long after I read it's final pages.

However you find yourself celebrating Valentine's Day, this year, my hope is that you will give yourself a copy of Letters of Love. Turn off the phone, pour yourself a nice cup of tea, settle back and undertake your own journey. When Valentine's Day is long gone, you'll still find little bits of it's stories, that resurface in your heart, to make you smile and perhaps, inspire you.
