In the beginning, marriage doesn't seem as though it should be all
that difficult. But it doesn't take long for trouble to seep in and
for bad habits to become entrenched. Before long, many married
couples may be wondering when the "worse" part ends and the
"better" part starts. Pastor and author Kevin A. Thompson has good
news for couples: the "better" part is always within reach when
they practice eight specific commitments to each other. These
commitments have the power to solve almost any problem a marriage
faces, and to prevent new ones from occurring. With biblical
insights and engaging personal stories, Thompson shows couples how
to see their marriage as bigger than themselves, avoid both apathy
and aggression, release the desire for power, make and maintain
peace, endure difficult times, and more. Perfect for newlyweds and
for married couples at any stage of life, Happily is the gateway to
a more loving, more joy-filled marriage.
A heartfelt, humorous personal memoir and relatable guide to
overcoming obstacles, wising up about romance, and getting ahead in
your career from the star of Netflix's hit reality show Selling
Sunset. In this engaging, witty, and inspirational memoir,
Chrishell Stause shares her story of living an unconventional
childhood in small-town Kentucky marked by periods of homelessness,
family addiction struggles and dreams of one day being on a daytime
soap, all while managing the local Dairy Queen. Through resilience
and grit, she overcame obstacles and pushed past every barrier in
her path to become one of the most envied luxury realtors in Los
Angeles and buzzworthy cast members in reality TV. She takes us
behind the scenes of Selling Sunset, reveals never-before-told
stories from her life in soaps, and even pulls back the curtain on
her highly publicised love life, offering insight not before
shared. With her signature honesty and charm, Stause also gives
tangible advice based on the lessons she's learned over the years
and offers unique insight about how to stay resilient and positive
no matter how many times life knocks you down. Under Construction
is for anyone who wants to remember that no matter what happens or
how, you have to get up, dress up and show up - and walk back into
the room stronger than ever before.
Carrie Kills A Man* is about growing up in a world that doesn't
want you, and about how it feels to throw a hand grenade into a
perfect life. It's the story of how a tattooed transgender rock
singer killed a depressed suburban dad, and of the lessons you
learn when you renounce all your privilege and power. When more
people think they've seen a ghost than met a trans person, it's
easy for bad actors to exploit that - and they do, as you can see
from the headlines and online. But here's the reality, from someone
who's living it. From coming out and navigating trans parenthood to
the thrills of gender-bending pop stars, fashion disasters and
looking like Velma Dinkley, this is a tale of ripping it up and
starting again: Carrie's story in all its fearless, frank and funny
glory. *"Spoiler: That man was me." - Carrie

In this, the first volume of her autobiographical trilogy, Trisha
reveals the heart-rending difficulties and dilemmas of growing up
in a domineering and dysfunctional family, ridiculed, exploited and
violently abused by vindictive, bullying siblings. Pat (her then
name) finds it a struggle simply to survive, let alone make any
sense of her life. Discovering, in her teens, an uncanny gift for
clairvoyance further unsettles her, and those around her. Desperate
to break free from the torments of her past and escape the negative
cycle of her existence, she leaves home. Striving to build her
confidence and create an independent life of her own. But neither
the past, nor her family, will let her alone. Will she ever find
the strength, acceptance and happiness - not to mention love in the
shape of Mr Right - for which she so ardently yearns? Will 'Pat'
ever throw off the shackles of her former self to become the
confident, successful and fulfilled 'Trisha'?
