This allegorical novel explores the love of God for his people and admonishes the Christian to wait faithfully and patiently as a bride anticipating the appearance of her promised husband.

‘Everlasting Love’ featured in Kenneth Branagh’s 2021 film, ‘Belfast,’ is a classic song that catapulted the Love Affair to fame and for three years the group were almost as popular, in Britain, as the Beatles. This never before told ‘behind the screams’ story of the youngest group to have a No. 1 hit, may be fun and fascinating, but it is also a serious piece of rock music history, appealing to everyone who loved, or lived during, London’s swinging 60s. Patricia was the secret fiancée of Mick Jackson, bass player, and has catalogued his life in the group in astonishing detail. Whether the boys were being arrested and jailed for causing chaos after climbing Eros or shocking the nation by exposing the music industry’s biggest ever cover-up, live on Saturday night TV, a controversy was never far away. Coupled with a revealing, often humorous account of her own and Mick’s romance, this is an exceptional memoir. Together for 55 years and still talking, Mick & Patricia have possibly the longest, happy relationship in the memory of pop .

In today's disconnected, distracted world, it seems like deep love gets harder to maintain every day.

But underneath all this, our souls long for an unbreakable love which deepens over time and lovemaking that gets hotter, not cooler, inside a lifetime commitment. This bond we yearn for is not impossible. It's not even improbable. You can create it in your life right now¿intimacy that opens both you and your partner to a divine awakening you could not create on your own, lovemaking that curls your toes, and a partnership where both people champion each other's best interests, where even the difficult moments bring you closer together. This is sacred relationship, and it exists in these pages. This book is an owner's manual for intimacy, a map for loving at the deepest level, and an invitation into sacred practice where divine connection becomes part of everyday life.

This book, although it has been classified as an autobiography, is really a series of short stories that will leave you smiling. There are paragraphs in this book that are so candid and sometimes revealing, that my first reaction was... Lou, your wife is going to kill you for saying that in print!!! Lou's story about the Russian girls is just one of those stories and is very funny. Don't think for a minute that this is just another autobiography. Lou begins by telling of life growing up as a young boy in Lower Manhattan in the 1920's and 1930s. Times were tough in those years and you had to be resourceful to stay alive and help put food on the table. As Lou states, "Everyone was just trying to make ends meet ... lots of poverty and hard times." If you're looking for tales like those portrayed in the movie 2009 Gangs of New York, forget it this is more like the perseverance portrayed in the 1939 Streets of New York with Jackie Cooper. Lou goes on to tell of his efforts to get into the U.S. Army during WWII; he was kept at bay by his loving mother for a while and was finally inducted and sent to Europe to fight. It is here that he meets the love of his life, Irene, in a small German village. She was a beautiful young girl, he was young and thunderstruck by her beauty and gentleness.

Relationship Wisdom is based on biblical principles and everyday real-life situations. It is both sensual and sensuous. If you are relationship challenged, this book is for you. If you can't seem to get your mate to commit to the relationship, this book is also for you. If you can't focus on your relationship or within your relationship, this book is for you as well. If you don't have a meaningful relationship, this book is definitely for you! This book will help you determine a good mate from a bad mate or transform you into a better partner. Please remember, this book is to provoke thought because once the mind is stretched by a new idea (emotion or notion), it never returns to its original dimensions (Albert Einstein).

Pope Francis, in his recent exhortation Amoris Laetitia (“Joy of Love”), praises marriage as a unique “friendship marked by passion” and “a free, faithful, and exclusive love.” We live in a culture that doesn’t cherish the permanence of marriage, according to Karee and Manuel Santos. Even Catholics aren’t immune from the epidemic of divorce. But how can you make the ideals of being forever, faithful, fruitful, and free a reality? How can you maintain a healthy Catholic marriage when society is pushing against it? In The Four Keys to Everlasting Love, the Santoses draw on real-life stories, scriptural principles, and the timeless wisdom of St. John Paul II to help you celebrate the sacrament of Marriage without downplaying the difficulties of married life. In doing so, they will inspire you to stay in love with each other, Christ, and the wisdom of the Church. The Santoses tell their own story as well: how they learned not to cling to personality, culture, or religious differences; how they learned to put family first; how they overcame health crises that exacted a physical, emotional, and spiritual toll; and how they navigated stressful holiday get-togethers with extended family. They let God transform them and make their marriage stronger. Each chapter provides discussion questions, action prompts, quotes from the Catechism of the Catholic Church and various popes, and additional online and print resources to stimulate the couple’s conversation, mutual understanding, and positive change. Free worksheets and other supplemental resources are available on the authors’ website, canwecana.blogspot.com.
