Self-Help Relationships
An award-winning actress. A soldier’s wife. A cancer
survivor. A college student. What these women—what all of
us—have in common is a need for love: to give it, to receive
it, to express its many aspects. Now Andrea Buchanan, who
Cosmopolitan called the “girl power guru,” follows her first
collection, Note to Self, with a new compilation of
thought-provoking, illuminating, often poignant essays on
love written by some of America’s most fascinating and
vibrant women.Join author and cancer survivor Kelly
Corrigan, describing why her most romantic fantasy now
involves sitting on the sofa opening the mail; journalist
Giselle Fernandez, sharing why, even though the journey can
sometimes end painfully, an adventure in love should never
be passed up; Afghanistan war widow Marie Tillman on
learning to open her heart again after the devastating loss
of her husband, Pat; celebrity stylist Tameka Raymond on the
challenges of marrying the rap star Usher in the glare of
the public eye; and college student Jaclyn Katz on how her
“perfect” traditional family fell apart, and her mother’s
brother and his partner gave her back the stability that
could have been lost forever. These courageous women have
portrayed their own innermost emotions and laid bare their
own experiences for readers to learn from, laugh at, and
lean on.
