Book excerpt: Once in every girl's life there comes a time when the woman separates from the child and a third person is born. This is a story of first love and first betrayals but it is also a multifaceted mystery that unfolds one layer at a time. Colleen, a high-spirited but self-doubting schemer and Abby, precocious and sarcastic, are attempting to pass the summer at the Geneva Resort until the beautiful Sara arrives and disrupts Collen's plans for romance. The pair instinctively dislike the eye-catching Sara who has come to hide from a past that even she can not remember. Only the self-assured Mavis seems to warm to the girl. But they will all soon learn the fragility of life when one of the young girls at the resort turns up missing. This is a tale rich in startling parallels between several seemingly diverse girls, whose lives are all connected through memories of maternal loss, complicated by duplicity and guilt. At the same time they are precariously trying to mature into womanhood and endeavoring not to get broken in the process. As time passes they begin to investigate the disappearance of Michelle in an effort to clear one of their friends. They inadvertently unravel the mystery, only to discover a truth too horrible to imagine. While struggling to come to grips with their own anonymity, they must find the courage to disconnect from their mothers' influences and prove to themselves that they are not 'glass angels' after all. This is not a coming of age book but rather a sweet road to maturity filled with poignant yet often humorous insights into a young woman's mind.

Download or read book The Glass Angel A guide to freedom peace transformation and growth Unlocking your Potential written by Christina E Foxwell and published by Ignite Purpose. This book was released on 2022-08-17 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christina E. Foxwell’s life can be defined as a series of hardships, setbacks, and decisions made from fear or to meet the expectations others had of her. The daughter of a Pentecostal minister, the South African born author (Mother, wife, daughter, grandmother, business woman and Performance & Transformation coach) allowed other’s opinions of her, no matter how wrong or cruel, to define who she was as a young child, young woman, and ultimately, well into adulthood. Thus began a lifetime of self- doubt, shame, and self-sabotage. Often overlooked and underappreciated, she learned early on that her innermost thoughts and dreams and even her well-being weren’t of much importance to those around her. She was often ridiculed for her thoughts and perceived “bad” behavior. She had to cope with name calling, cruel taunts, and scorn for even minor infractions, or for no reason at all. In time, Christina did what so many in her situation would’ve done. She donned a proverbial shield of armor to protect herself from pain, just to get through day-to-day life and have some semblance of a life, even if it wasn’t of her own design. How she saw herself was shaped by what others said about her and how they treated her. The Glass Angel details the years she lived under the weight of those unfounded and incredibly harmful notions. This book is part memoir, part cautionary tale, part inspirational how-to for anyone who has ever felt like the world was against them. In it, she shares her journey from the darkest moments of her life to finding herself, learning to forgive the past and seek light and clarity and let them lead the way forward. Her story will open your eyes and mind to what’s possible. It proves that even when you are at your absolute lowest and fear you’ll never find your way out of despair, shame, or a lifetime of guilt, there is hope on the other side. While there are many reasons for her to feel sorry for herself, she chose another path – one that helped her heal from the trauma and discover who she was and what she had to do to feel comfortable in her skin and heal from all the things that weighed her down for years. She found a path forward. She made a pact with herself to stop living the life of a ‘broken angel’ and embrace what she calls her alchemy. That’s how this book came to be. It’s her way of helping others who’ve known pain and made it to the other side. She is giving readers permission to not only survive but thrive by igniting their own alchemy and using it to transform their lives from the inside out.
