Book Description

When the daily grind is getting you down, nothing beats a nice, warm bath with a good book. The stories in this collection do for the soul what a hot soak does for the body: cleanse, relax and refresh. Another Long Hot Soak -- Book Two offers more than fifty true-life stories to comfort and inspire. In this poignant, heartwarming collection, an unwanted child finds a mother and a home. A young woman renews her love for her dying brother. A sailor adrift at sea chooses faith over fear. These are the accounts of real people from all walks of life who have faced every kind of circumstance -- the routine, the remarkable, the uncanny, the tragic and even the humorous. Some, in the face of betrayal, have shown astonishing forgiveness and love. Others have stared death in the face and emerged with a deeper sense of purpose. Many have encountered a power greater than themselves that guided their decisions, empowered their actions and engineered outcomes beyond their own ability. Written in the style of its popular predecessor, A Long Hot Soak, this book is a spiritual tonic to bring encouragement and strength in the ups and downs of life. 'Life is often more akin to a Blackpool roller coaster than the calm, serene and pleasant life that we would all wish for ... But whether you are on the downward slide or on the climb to the top, I am sure these stories will provide inspiration, encouragement and a source of hope that will enable you to find the handle to steady you through the dips and bumps of your own journey through life's great adventure.' -- Wendy Craig
