| Summary |
"Suddenly in the spotlight, twenty-four-year-old Hannah Brown realized that she wasn't sure what she wanted. After years of competing in beauty pageants, and then starring on The Bachelorette and Dancing with the Stars, she had become incredibly visible. There she was, in her early twenties, with millions around the world examining and weighing in on her every decision, she found herself wondering what it would mean to live on her terms. What it would mean to stop seeking approval from others and decide--for the first time--what it was she wanted from her own life ... Hannah knows she doesn't have all the answers. What she does have is the insight of someone who has spent critical years of her youth under public scrutiny. Thus what emerges is a quarter-life memoir that speaks to the set of difficulties young women face, and how to move through them with grace." -- Publisher marketing. |

| Summary |
After years of competing in beauty pageants, then starring on The Bachelorette, Brown broke off her engagement, pulled herself up, and threw herself into her next challenge: Dancing with the Stars. She appeared to be having the time of her life-- but never felt more alone. Here Brown examines her ingrained need to seek approval, which led to developing unhealthy patterns. She shares moments when her faith was tested-- and the time she reclaimed it on national television. True growth doesn't come without strife-- and in the darkest moments self-acceptance and love can bloom. -- adapted from jacket. |
