Publisher Description
Former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres shares her secrets for a happy, fulfilling life after divorce.
After her divorce from superstar singer Marc Anthony, Dayanara Torres learned firsthand how to handle the challenges of starting over and creating a healthy environment for her two sons and herself. The most important lesson she learned is that the commitment a woman makes to herself is just as important as the commitment she makes to her spouse on their wedding day. Dayanara vowed to honor and respect herself, and in Married to Me she helps other women do the same.
Dayanara walks women through the critical stages of redefining life after a marriage ends: accepting, rebuilding, and rediscovering happiness and the self. With compassion and encouragement, she offers honest advice, personal mantras, and insightful tips on family, lifestyle, beauty, and health—so that women can move beyond the pain, set a new family dynamic, discover new passions, and build new relationships. Like Dayanara, readers will discover a life after divorce that is beyond their wildest dreams.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Former Miss Universe Torres, with a big assist from sister Jinny (a "mental health counselor with several degrees"), delivers a well-written guide to post-divorce recovery; the famous ex of singer Marc Anthony isn't remarkably original in her debut, but she is interesting and helpful. Jinny features prominently, frequently interjecting advice and explanation alongside Torres's narrative; as a team, their information is direct, practical and easy to follow. Fans of Marc Anthony won't find any dish here; Torres mentions him infrequently and only as "my ex-husband." Despite predictable content-reviewing the stages of grief, learning to forgive, accept and understand yourself-her sincere feeling and camaraderie will make readers feel warm and welcome (even if she occasionally goes a bit too far, as in 15 pages of letters from her "friends" about their own break-ups).
