What Readers Are Saying
Spiritually Potent. Wow.
I don't read many books but I burned through Marianne's life in one evening after dinner. Spiritually potent. Wow.

Made a grown man cry.
Marianne made this grown man weep tears of pain and joy while shining radiantly through her confessional tale, and in the end, shows us true femininity and greatness.

You have to read it!
Girl, you have to read this book! I'm giving it to everyone I know! She helped me understand my relationships with men, for good or bad, and helped me grow closer to God.

I'm making my kids read it.
I have made mistakes, big mistakes, in my past, and this book opened my eyes. I made sure my son and my two daughters read this book and it had a huge impact.
- Tom Parker
Much enlightenment in few pages.
Marianne is so honest yet sweetly gifted at drawing out deeper lessons you simply do not anticipate. I have never read a book which provides so much enlightenment in so few pages. As for the ending, well, I am still shaking.
- Sandra Sienna Williams
Marianne is pure love and light.
Marianne is pure love and light; she was put on earth to share her goodness, and now her story will inspire and awaken the spirit and faithfulness in all of us.

There is hope for all of us!
This book is so important because unlike other books about lives of the saints; we can see our exact selves in her words. She truly is a modern day saint who is dealing with the desires and bondages of the world we all live in today at this exact moment. How many times have we thought that we could turn our lives around and everything would be better? Marianne proves to us that this takes a lifetime, and suffering will be waiting for us as we make our final pilgrimage into heaven. Marianne was blessed in so many ways, but also suffered immensely. I am so glad she was able to write this book! I feel I am definitely part of her legacy, I have the startings of a similar story and I know there is hope for so many of us if we open our eyes.

A read that will stir your heart
Very touching and healing- I Ran to confession after and had a new flame lit within for love of my sweet Jesus and His momma- our blessed Mother! A new desire to continue in daily scripture more faithfully and daily Rosary as well. Thanks to the Mary Foundation for your generousity in helping to build up the kingdom here and now-- Jesus needs us ! We are His hands and feet to one another! Amen!

Honest, sad, enlightening and redeeming...
So honest, so sad, so enlightening... She shared and taught us all in writing about her life and finding her way back to the Catholic Church, to Jesus. She welcomes us all to come along with her so that we may all find the peace of God that she found. God bless her.
