I Am Before ”I Do”

Ms. Ranee A. Spina, an alluring Venus of today, uses humor to empower young women to lower the divorce rate. This is a book about self-awareness and the power of choice. The focus is on the commitment a woman must make to herself before making a commitment to a long-term relationship. This humorous, but no nonsense, conversational book should be purchased by two groups of people. 1) Single women seventeen and up who have questions regarding self-worth and relationships, and 2) people in those same women's lives that want to send a message but are uncomfortable being the messenger. I AM Before "I Do" is an empowering road map for women, leading them out of the mysterious realm of chance happiness. Every page of this beautifully-designed book is a wake-up call to the would-be victim of avoidable heartache. It says what many family and friends are too timid, too tired, or forbidden to say out loud. I AM Before "I Do" was a Fresh Voices 2006 Finalist and the Winner of the USA Book News 2006 National Book Award. Ms. Spina is a Relationship and Leadership speaker who performs across the country.
