Summary: Truly a gift to those in love
Review: Thank you Marianne for this beautifully eloquent expression of real and deep love. My husband and I read this book together and from page one we were amazed at how truly you captured the experience of true, romantic love. For those of you looking for a "how to" book on love, I agree with your reviews that this would have missed the mark for you. But for those of us out there who are blessed with the gift of being in an enchanted love, it was amazing to see on paper what it is most times impossible to ever find words to describe. Your book touched my husband and I tremendously and reminded us that we indeed have been given a gift from God in each other and the heights of love that we are able to experience. It is also a reminder to us both that the love we share is something we should never dare to take for granted or treat lightly. Enchanted love is rare and when we are chosen and blessed in this lifetme to experience it, it is to be cherished. For those of you who read this and didn't quite "get it ", then my guess is that your beloved has not yet entered your life. When they do, you will know it, and then re-read this book. I guarantee you it will be a totally different book for you the second time around and will touch your heart as much as it has mine and my husband's.

Summary: Wonderfully stated insight into the loving human heart
Review: This book came on strict recommendation from a dear and trusted friend who is a voracious reader of anything spiritual. She gives me very few highly recommended titles, but this one she had no doubt about --- BUY IT AND GET YOUR HILIGHTERS OUT! It is a simply put, beautifully expressed vision of the ways in which love, romance, dreams of forever, and the challenges of partnerships are faced by women. We tend to take on "roles" in our love lives, and Ms. Williamson captures the roles in such a way that you will find yourself within her words. I was so engrossed with the very first half I could barely put it down. It helps to know when you are reading that if your partner is willing to open up in the ways the book describes, you are both in for a wonderful journey into the spiritual side of love. If only one of you is aware of the need for change, it will be a very different, if not somewhat empty, journey alone.

Summary: Lots of heart-felt statements on the state of romance but ..
Review: Williamson really can put her pen to task with heart-touching words woven to get your heart stirring. Enchanted Love is quite the achivement of a literary celebration of mystical love thanks to insipirations from Marianne's interpretations of A Course in Miracles. Although the content is endearing I must ask the question ... why is Williamson preaching such lovely tones of enchanted romance ... and not achieving it herself. the proof is in the pudding. No one is perfect but if you're looking for love advice, ask Joanne Woodward or another successfully married woman who been with her best pal a long time through ups and downs. Would you ever get diet advice from someone who is obese or still walking around at least 10 pounds overweight? Williamson openly admits that numerous men have left her, she is a single mother, and was apparently once married for under 6 months years ago. She may be a true warrior in the love and romance trenches but if her whole life is dedicated to L-O-V-E ... why does she attract but not hold the romantic love she finds? Enchanted Love makes for beautful prose but that's about it. The material is very fantastical at times with lyrical verbage but if you're seeking romantic results in your favor ... keep seeking elsewhere. Enjoy this book for what it can provide because it is positive. If you want to access advice from someone who writes about love and is successful in love ... try Drs. Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks. They have been married over 22 years and have used their marriage as a testing ground for conscious relationships. The Hendricks must be doing soemthing right because they are still together with children and grandchildren to boot.
