Praise for LOVE NOTES

“Editor Cynthia Gregory created an anthology of miracles. These stories are short and sweet, amazingly sweet, and any one of them might change your life.” –Beckette D.

“These stories, among others in the collection, illustrate how love can guide us through the toughest of times, heal our deepest wounds, and inspire us to grow and transform. I’m so impressed by the diversity and depth of the narratives that I’m excited to share this book with friends and family.” – Emily K.

“LOVE NOTES FROM THE SOUL is a warm embrace on a cold winter night. No matter what stage of life you are in, gender or sexual identity, or country of origin, these stories are remarkably universal in their wisdom and inspiration. If you need to believe in magic again, read this book!”

– Jeanne Sullivan Billeci, The Soul Mate Coach and author of Be the Soulmate You Want to Attract.
