In an effort to change her luck, this master baker plans to give up waiting for Jake – who doesn’t know she’s alive – sell her business in New York City, buy a food truck in Los Angeles, and find her own happily ever after.
Chef Sean O’Malley could use Nicole’s dessert skills at his restaurant in New York City. In fact, he’s banking on a joint venture with Nicole, although he hasn’t yet approached her about it. When he learns during a pre-wedding event they’re both working that she’s moving to L.A. because she’s giving up on Jake, he decides to give her a crash course on how to be noticed. Sean has, after all, three younger sisters. He knows how a woman’s mind works. But he doesn’t factor in how his heart works or how easily it could be broken.

DISCOVER what`s been keeping you from weight loss success
After almost 30 years of helping thousands of people, just like you, to get in shape, I realized there is a lot more to losing weight than merely ‘diet and workout’. While those are essential elements, for many, they only result in the classic yo-yo diet effect, if any effect at all.
The causes for this are many but in essence, the reason you can’t successful keep weight off is because you are still in spiritual and emotional bondage, that must be identified and broken before any weight loss will become permanent.
The type of bondage of which I speak can be emotional eating, a false sense of identity, or a deep seated need to stay the way you are (which you might not even consciously realize). You cannot overcome these obstacles alone! If you could, you wouldn’t be here reading this right now. But you are not alone! God can and will help if you bring him into this area of your life. And I too will assist you, if you let me, through this book and our free Facebook group - the Weight Loss, God’s Way Challenge!
While the book reveals the blockages that are stopping you and the biblical principles that will set you free, it’s in the Weight Loss, God's Way Challenge where the blessings occur as you work with others (and myself!) to put these principles into daily action in your life. We see people achieving amazing success and breakthroughs every month in the group and we look forward to helping you achieve your breakthrough as well.
In this Book You will Receive…
PLUS FREE Access to our Facebook group; Weight Loss God’s Way Challenge. Where author and experienced Personal Coach Cathy Morenzie will guide you through the steps, day by day to keep you motivated, focused and creating the new habits you need to achieve a lasting breakthroughs.
Get a head start with our Quick Start Tool Kit - over $200 in value, FREE with the purchase of this book.
If you are convinced that there`s other factors preventing you from reaching your goal.
If you are frustrated with your lack of will-power and discipline to lose your excess weight…
‘Healthy by Design: Weight Loss, God’s Way’ Will Help you to…
Before you go on another diet or weight loss program, you need to address the real issues that have kept you losing weight and keeping it off. Weight Loss, God's Way is not another Christian diet book, but helps you to finally understand why you do what you do (emotional eating, snacking, lack of exercise, lack of motivation, etc.) and how to begin to overcome those limiting beliefs, and issues, through a bible-based Christian approach that will help you to achieve permanent and natural weight loss, grow spiritually as you learn to trust more in God in all areas of your life and begin to treat yourself with the same love and care that God desires for you in the area of your health and weight.

Undeterred, he begins combining-for-hire to support his younger sister in college. His best friend convinces him to discourage local guys from dating Amelia.

Even from a distance, he's controlling the course of my life. It's only a matter of time before he finds me. Before he kills me.
Quote from book:
From the moment I'd entered Jude's life, he had managed mine. He'd ordered me, albeit with the illusion of gentleness at first, to do what he wanted. He'd molded me into the kind of woman that fit into his life. I had offered him my freedom in exchange for security, and then love. Freedom was a high price to pay, but one often finds that out too late.

In fourteen-year-old Lacey Steele's world, being "skinny" equals no more caustic remarks comparing her to Shamu the Whale, meriting the attention of her ten-year crush aka the beautiful quarterback next door, and finally deserving her distant mother's love- pretty much goddess status. But diets, nor health food, nor exercise bring Lacey desired results and her future looks everlastingly chubby.
Unexpectedly, Lacey and her friend Ashley stumble on an easier method. Extreme calorie cutting may seem a little drastic, but of course it's better than ... an eating disorder. Unfortunately, the easy route has a price neither girl planned to pay, but it comes due anyway, for one of them.
A story of hope and eventual acceptance, Skinniness is Next to Goddessness? Lacey's Story, takes a brighter approach to an age old tale.
A best-selling fantasy adventure set in an Ancient World where the myths, the monsters and the Gods are real...and humanity's only hope lies in a hero who can bring a barbarian's strength and philosopher's dry wit to desperate situations. Best-seller in Alternative History! Top Seller in Greek/Roman Mythology!
