Book excerpt: I didn't know what to expect when the time came for me to go on stage. An attendant with a clipboard and wearing headphones came out to get us one by one in the waiting room as if we were awaiting a Golden Ticket opportunity that may never come. I see cameramen around me, and I am always on the lookout to see if I can spot Giovanni from among those holding a microphone or balancing a Steadicam, but I haven't seen him all morning. Though I know what to sing, it would seem as though I don't know how to dress. The other women still in the waiting room with me are all dolled up from head to toe. Thick make-up. Fake eyelashes. Freshly painted nails. Curls trapped under layers of hairspray. And here I am with my jeans and basic heels, a green tank top sporting a large butterfly design. My hair is straight and parted off to the side. I did my own make-up though it looks like my competition hired professionals to do theirs. The woman stands at the doorway and shouts my name. She then escorts me to the main Studio down the hall and to the right. The production workers hardly pay attention to me as I enter from stage left. "Wait for your cue," she instructs. "And let's welcome to the stage, Brooke Evans!" I hear the voice of the show's host over the loudspeaker.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brooke Baldwin had a secret—the kind of secret that could shatter families. Her daddy was dead, and it was her fault. It was not in a criminal way but in a moral, unforgiveable way. She could not face the guilt and could not tell her family, maybe ever, how she felt about herself. So she ran all the way to Rome to study medicine and surgery secretly to find herself and make her father proud. Then entered Alessandro Romani. He broke the barrier that Brooke had spent years constructing—brick by brick, fear by fear, and goal by goal. And now he had come to Lubbock, Texas, to see her and to meet her family, which could be disastrous. Would Dr. Alessandro Romani turn around and get right back on the airplane to go home and forget they had ever met? Maybe yes, maybe not. Could Brooke trust him with their future, trust him to accept her family, just as they are, and trust him to cherish her? Perhaps. But could she trust him with the deepest secret of her heart?

Download or read book Brooke s Journey of Heart written by Beverly Charles and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-08-16 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brookes Journey of Heart is the story of a daughter who lives each day with the disabilities delivered with her at birth and the mother who gave birth to her. Beverly Charles asked her daughter, Brooke Klemme, if she would like to write her story of living with Spina Bifida. Brooke responded, "Yes! There are two sides to every story." Brooke and Beverly show us both sides of their story in the context of faith, family, and friends. In 1971, more than 6000 American children were born with Spina Bifida, but like most people, Beverly Charles knew nothing about this condition until she gave birth to her third and last child. In this touching memoir co-authored by Charles and her daughter Brooke Klemme, we learn first-hand not only what it means, but what it feels like - to raise a disabled child, to watch her suffer and triumph, and to be that child, who now as an adult, tells her side of the story. Most parents will never have to answer this question - should your new baby live? For Brooke's mother, there was only one answer, an answer that would involve multiple surgical procedures, interminable hospital stays, and an army of doctors and therapists - an answer that would change her and her family forever. This book is a spiritual memoir and a medical one. The authors make connections with Eastern and Western religious practices that have seen them through difficult and joyous times for over four decades. Their story transcends the personal to offer hope and help to other parents who have faced the same hard question and who, like Beverly and Brooke, answer "YES." As one reader said, I loved it. I laughed, cried, got mad, got sad, and now feel like a part of your family.
