The Art of Hearing Heartbeats by Jan-Phillipp Sendker<\/p>\n

This novel celebrates romance and the strength of family ties in a masterpiece story that spans decades, continents, and physical disabilities to bring two people into a lasting love.<\/p>\n

How to Tell Toledo From the Night Sky by Lydia Netzer<\/p>\n

This story is based on the premises of two women who raise their children to become soul mates.\u00a0 The women go their separate ways, but the children ultimately meet again and fall in love.\u00a0 This hook is a heart shattering story that asks, \u201cCan true love exist if it\u2019s been planned from birth?\u201d<\/p>\n

Who Moved My Cheese? By Spencer Johnson, M.D.<\/p>\n

This is a very simple story that is a quick read.\u00a0 It is an enlightening story of four characters who live in a \u201cMaze\u201d and look for \u201cCheese\u201d to nourish them and make them happy.\u00a0 Two are mice named Sniff and Scurry, and two are mouse-size people named Hem and Haw.\u00a0 \u201cCheese\u201d is a metaphor for what people want to have in life.\u00a0 And, \u201cThe Maze\u201d is where people look for what they want.\u00a0 In the story the characters are faced with unexpected change.\u00a0 One of them deals with change successfully, and writes what he has learned from his experiences on the maze walls.\u00a0\u00a0 When listeners come to see \u201cThe Handwriting on the Wall\u201d they can discover for themselves how to deal with change and enjoy more success and less stress in their lives.\u00a0 (Okay, this is not really a love story, but it is a great book about moving forward together in a new life \u2013 because getting married does require change.\u00a0 It\u2019s one of my favorites!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
