In September 1998, Michael J. Fox stunned the world by announcing he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease: a degenerative neurological condition. In fact, he had been secretly fighting it for seven years. The worldwide response was staggering. Fortunately, he had accepted the diagnosis and by the time the public started grieving for him, he had stopped grieving for himself.

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight - or the headlines. Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years - all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception.

But when her mother and stepfather were tragically killed in an automobile accident when she was 22, Shania knew that the only way to lift her family out of poverty was to use her God-given singing talent.

The first story Selma Blair Beitner ever heard about herself is that she was a mean, mean baby. With her mouth pulled in a perpetual snarl and a head so furry it had to be rubbed to make way for her forehead, Selma spent years living up to her terrible reputation: biting her sisters, lying spontaneously, getting drunk from Passover wine at the age of seven, and behaving dramatically so that she would be the center of attention. In a memoir that is as wildly funny as it is emotionally shattering, Blair tells the captivating story of growing up and finding her truth.

And, with some minor adjustments, she's done just fine. That is until she has a one-night stand with the incredibly charming Bo, a perfect stranger. And that one night changes everything. While Bo is surprisingly elated to step up to the plate, Win finds herself unsure of whether she can handle this new challenge on her own or if she'll need a helping hand.

Publisher's Summary
2010 Audie Award Finalist for Audiobook of the Year
In a career spanning more than 30 years, the late Patrick Swayze made a name for himself on the stage, the screen, and television. Known for his versatility, passion and fearlessness, he became one of our most beloved actors.
But in February 2008, Patrick announced he had been diagnosed with stage IV pancreatic cancer. Always a fighter, he refused to let the disease bring him to his knees, and his bravery inspired both his legion of fans and cancer patients everywhere.
Yet this memoir, written with wisdom and heart, recounts much more than his bout with cancer. In vivid detail, Patrick describes his Texas upbringing, his personal struggles, his rise to fame with North and South, his commercial breakthroughs in Dirty Dancing and Ghost, and the soul mate who's stood by his side through it all: his wife, writer and director Lisa Niemi.
A behind-the-scenes look at a Hollywood life and a remarkable love, this memoir is both entertainment and inspiration. Patrick and Lisa's marriage was a journey of two lives intertwined and lived as one--throughout their years in Hollywood and at home on their working ranch outside Los Angeles, and culminating in the hope and wisdom they've imparted to all who know and knew them.
This book will open the door for families, individuals, and husbands and wives to grow, bond, and discover entirely new levels of love and sharing, proving that life shouldn't be lived as a series of endings, but rather as the beginning of greater strength and love.

A Great Reflection of an Amazing Person
I am a huge fan of Patrick Swayze. My favorite movies of his are Road House and Point Break, guy flicks, but I also enjoyed his performance in North and South. When I saw this novel was put on Audible and read by the man himself, I had to get it.
The book is what I would expect of someone giving an over view of their life. It focuses more on the human side of his journey as a person, actor and husband. It also talks about his dealing with cancer. Unfortunately, it did not go much in to the movies and shows he made and what went on during those events which takes away from the biography when that is what you are hoping to read about.
I give the novel 4-plus stars only because I wanted more in-depth information about the works, he has done rather than the over view. Apart from that it was a very well done look back at his life and a hope for his struggle. If you are a Patrick Swayze fan this is a 5-star book, especially the audio book, very cool to hear him read his story. If you are looking for a more in depth read on what Patrick Swayze the actor went through while making movies, then this is not what you are looking for.

Crazy for Swayze
If you’re expecting the dirty deets on Dirty Dancing, you won’t get em. Of course all of his major movies are touched on, but it’s more of a very personal biography about the thoughts and feelings he lived through from childhood into his stage 4 cancer days, and how solid his relationship with his wife Lisa was throughout.
