As an author and therapist who works with couples to find real love, I've always been intrigued by the love story in Bridges of Madison County by Robert James Waller. Francesca Johnson found her true self with Robert Kincaid. Why, I wondered couldn't Francesca take that true self back to her marriage instead of letting it go? The Last Slow Dance explores real authentic love that is deep and real and you get to keep it until you draw your last breath. I always ask my clients the dream question, "What would your life be like if you woke up tomorrow and all your dreams had come true?" The answer is "The Last Slow Dance". How can you live a real-life fairytale? Search your heart and read The Last Slow Dance to find out how. It's really easier than you have ever dreamed. So I ask, "What will you do when your fairy tale comes to you?" Mary Livingstone writes, "I wandered the world searching for something to believe in. I never stopped to think maybe I already had it. All it took was seeing things in a different light. I owe most of this story to you, Michael..." After high school, Mary Livingstone spent 17 years on the road searching for something to believe in. It wasn't until she returned to her roots that she discovered that even after all these years, the best love stories begin and end at home.The Last Slow Dance revamped with a beautiful fairytale cover.
