Chosen Forever
Autor Susan Richardsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 mai 2009
Readers cried with Susan Richards when, at the end of Chosen by a Horse, her beloved mare was laid to rest in the paddock where she had met her herd--Hot Shot, Tempo, and Georgia. Now they will cheer as Susan recounts the further wonders that came into her life as part of Lay Me Down's legacy: a best-selling book, a tour to support that book, the reconnection to friends and family who come to celebrate her success, and love--unexpected, complicated, and true.
And so Chosen Forever works its magic as a sequel of self-discovery, as Susan continues to grow into her new life. Told in charming prose with her familiar and disarming sense of humor, and featuring a new supporting cast of animal characters (a Siamese cat, two pugs, two Labs, and appearances by horses), this is another moving tale for readers facing their own challenges at re-creating their lives.
Chosen Forever is the story of what happens the day after all of your dreams come true--how you learn to accept that you deserve to be happy, and how those we love continue to offer us gifts long after they are gone.

Richards
opens
her
life
once
again
to
share
her
struggles,
lessons,
and
surprising
joys.
Chosen
Forever
is
a
rare
thing.
Reading
Richards'
prose
makes
you
feel
like
you're
listening
to
a
good
friend
tell
you
her
story,
if
only
that
friend
would
tell
you
their
deepest
fears
and
triumphs.
Her
descriptions
of
her
pets
will
make
any
animal
lover
smile.
And
for
anyone
who
thinks
they're
too
old,
too
damaged
or
too
afraid
to
take
a
risk
and
enter
in
a
relationship
with
someone,
this
book
is
a
breath
of
fresh
air.
The
book
is
well
written,
honest
and
provides
the
reader
with
the
desire
to
keep
reading.
What
more
could
you
want
in

book?
If
you
plan
to
buy
one
book
this
year,
make
it
this
one.
