Women stand side by side looking into the sunset over the water.

“When Love Hurts” coming to a Library Near You!

A wonderful woman name Darla recently celebrated her birthday. Instead of people bringing gifts to her party, she invited people to buy copies of When Love Hurts so they could be placed in libraries in the Greater Vancouver Area.  Enough money was raised to buy 70 books! Her motivation was simple: she wants as many women as possible to have access to the book that has been so helpful to her. Way to go Darla!

  1. I tried to give a copy of “When Love Hurts” to our Bellingham Public Library. They apparently thought they had enough books in that “category”, so they didn’t accept it.

    I am hoping many women will ask our local Library for this book, maybe that will convince them that it would be beneficial to our community to keep this book on hand at the Library.
