A Reflection Of Love
A Different Kind of Love Story

By Frances Stone

Faith. Love. Forgiveness. These three words portray the truth found in the pages of A Reflection of Love ~ A Different Kind of Love Story, the powerful story of one woman’s personal voyage of self-discovery through motherhood, career and relationships. Finding herself a single mother, Frances searches for the plan and purpose behind her circumstances as she tries to fix her life, beginning a healing process that instead, transforms her heart.

 

Travel through the pages of A Reflection of Love as Frances learns about faith, love and forgiveness moving from the depths of despair to the glory of spiritual enlightenment, learning all about real love along the way. It is a story that has the capacity to change lives. It is an experience that has already changed one.

A Reflection of Love ~ A Different Kind of Love Story pierces your heart with its raw honesty and insightfulness. It's peppered with equal doses of hope and the hell that was Frances' addiction and takes us to a place of knowing, as surely as we can, that women can and do survive addiction - and go on to both thrive and inspire others to consider recovery as a new way of life. This book is a testament to the female warrior spirit. Kudos to Frances for recovering out loud.

Why My Book?

When we break the silence and share our stories we change lives! It takes a tremendous amount of courage, strength and wisdom to do so. AND it takes support! Through anxiety & fear, I shared about my story and my hope to raise enough money to share my book as a Christmas gift with the women living on the DTES of Vancouver, BC. I was grateful for the donations that made it possible through the "Gift of Hope" Christmas Campaign to make that dream come true.

Reading A Reflection of Love ~ A Different Kind of Love Story was a beautiful experience, which filled me with thankfulness and gratitude.  Frances is able to somehow find the words to portray her journey in such a way that fills the reader with hope, literally in the face of heartbreak, fear and grief.  Her words convey a strength that crosses many personal situations - I found resonance and meaning and maybe most importantly grace and hope.  A brave story.

Celebrate With Me! 

January 21st, 2005 my mind, heart and life was forever changed. This was the day I began my recovery, and was given a purpose, to tell my story. For the next five years, I worked on writing my first book, but my real work was to feel my pain and that gave me a new passion - to help others. Today, my pain has been transformed into a beautiful, rewarding and fulfilling life in recovery.

 

I want to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of this moment by offering...

I understand the parts about longing for a perfect relationship with a man who clearly wasn't going to give me one. A Reflection of Love ~ A Different Kind of Love Story is a different kind of book - the novel aspect intertwined with the reflective questions was a unique and refreshing experience for a book. I would recommend this book to both single mothers and women in recovery, or any woman really. I think there is a lot of relatable material in the book for women in general. I only wish it was longer!

"Holy!  So much food for thought. The writing itself was so detailed and descriptive that I was easily able to envision the setting and emotional tone of each chapter. What a gift this book is to all women. I had so many moments while reading it that I could could identify with. And wow! The question pages were so insightful. Especially the one on page 11! I had never thought of it that way!!!! I totally do that!

I felt comforted In the fact that Frances could become intimate with readers into parts of her life where many people face challenges; self love, relationships, spirituality.
