Single, Again: A Love Story
It took me nearly a decade to get divorced. The first seven years were the most difficult of my life. In the crumbling I lost the vision of who I was, and in my blindness, I stopped loving. Along the way I learned some of life’s greatest lessons. I could have just walked away and never looked back. Half of all marriages end in divorce, and my story is a common one. I could not just walk away feeling healed and lucky. I could not leave the lessons a married woman ached to learn alone, the journey of a single woman, silent. I started to write.
This book is a journal of a woman who finds herself single, again, after living half of her life married. It is my true story, but written in a way that I hope helps you....find you. And when you do, let it be a love story.

This book flowed so beautifully, from page 1. I read the entire book in less than a day, mostly because I just couldn't put it down. It is a book of hope, teaching us that we are in charge of our destiny, regardless of the bumps in the road of life. This author has a true gift for writing, and I look forward to her next book!

This true story is common for many women, but what is not common is Ellen's courage to begin again, continue living with a good attitude and to create her Dream life. Life is challenging after a 20+ year marriage dissolves due to infidelity, but she powered through it.
Ellen opens her heart and shares her feelings, wisdom and encouragement. I'm amazed that a first-time author could write such an intriguing book. I couldn't put the book down once I started reading it. The opening made my heart beat so quickly!
This book would be ideal for therapists counseling divorced women.

Powerful & inspiring journey
No matter where you are, single, married, looking, happy, this is a great book about healing, growing, thriving, becoming.
How great it would be if we all learned this earlier, that it is all about creating and sharing love, that we are worthy of it and it is attainable. I loved so much in this book, the honesty and vulnerability. I loved "I'm looking for a car and you're offering a bike".

Not my preferred style of writing
I really thought this would be a book I could connect with, but failed to grasp an actual story. I had a difficult time piecing together her thoughts.

Single again is a story I have lived through myself. I think it could be a lot better. So much happenedha
that wasn't even mentioned. I too found myself. I loved the old me before marriage. It was hard to get her back but she was worth finding. Like I said the book was so so.

Makes you think in a good way !!
There are many breathtakingly beautiful parts of this book !! Some of it is just too confusing and needs a little narrative to hold it together. Well worth the read !!

I couldn't put this book down. Ellen's honesty will make everyone want to take an inventory of their own lives. It's a story of a women who has to walk through the darkness to get to the light on the other side. We all have to do this in some form or another...it's called evolving. Ellen takes you inside her intimate journey of a marriage that is slowly tearing her apart until she learns how to love herself again.

The message in this book: Each of us facing challenges in our life, but it's not what happens to us that makes the difference. It's what we do next and how we react.
