Sharing Stories

Francie Wilson playing her violin.
| January 17, 2015

Throbbingly real, the voice of 66 years in a loving marriage spills across these pages. Clear advice accompanies examples from the author’s life—how to develop and nurture attitudes that build a strong union, allow joy to trump any challenge.

Loving Wife: Roughneck Guide to a Happy Marriage is a fitting homage to Francie Wilson who passed in 2012. But the book is much more than that—including guidelines and anecdotes showing some basic, and some unexpected, ways to have a happy marriage forever.

A great gift to newlyweds or “nearlyweds” or to those who are already married. The happy ones will relate, the unhappy ones may learn a new trick or two!

The book is free from January 18th to 22nd, and only 99 cents thereafter.

Go to Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RPBD59U and live happily ever after.
