Publisher Description
Alan and Denise Jackson's life seemed like a fairy tale: high school sweethearts marry young and leave small-town Georgia to pursue big dreams in Music City. They pay their dues, work hard, weather deep disappointments. Then their dreams come true.
In fairy tales, the Jacksons' material success?plus their "perfect" marriage, their three beautiful daughters, and their supportive families?would have signaled a happily-ever-after ending.
But real life is different from fairy tales.
At the pinnacle of their success, the Jacksons separated. For Alan, musical renown fame, and wealth still did not make up for the marital problems the Jacksons had struggled with for years. And for Denise, building her life around Alan and riding the tide of his success had somehow left her hollow, unsure of just who she really was.
You don't have to be rich and famous to go through struggles like these. Sooner or later, we all come to the point when we relize that real joy and peace isn't just around the corner of the next achievement, the next relationship, the next new thing.
That's why Alan and Denise Jackson's story isn't just a great read and a dramatic, intimate look at the golden world of celebrity. It's a story of the greatest love of all, the love that will never let you go . . . and how to find it, no matter who you are, where you live, or what you've done.
"Denise's story is an inside perspective on the results of the ups and downs of fame. Her personal struggles with life's ordinary and extraordinary consequences, her passion to have a stronger marriage, and her desire to have a closer walk with God make for a truly inspiring life." ?Carrie Underwood, 2005 American Idol Winner, ACM & CMA Female Vocalist of the Year
Customer Reviews
Misleading.
To be clear, I have no problem with the Christian God or any other religion in general. But the premise of this book is that Denise and her famous husband went through a tough time and the book is about what happened, why it happened and how they mended their relationship. The title, It’s All About Him, doesn’t refer to Alan, though the about section will make you think that. Nope, it’s about God. All about God and Jesus and how you can overcome infidelity, or literally anything else bad in your life, in your spouse by having a close relationship with God. There is very little ‘meat’ to this book, no salacious details (if that’s what you’re looking for), very little about who they are as people other than general adjectives like ‘needy’ or ‘complicated’. Rather it’s a book about how everything in her life, was given to her by God. How every positive thing is about God. Every thought she has, every step she takes is about God. It’s tiresome when it’s not what you were expecting. So, yes, I’m disappointed.
