Descripción: When faced with overwhelming hardship, what we believe makes all the difference.At age twenty-six, Anne Reeder Heck was attacked by a stranger and brutally raped. Years later, still seeking to heal the remnants of this trauma, Anne stands alone in her living room one winter day and claims her desired belief aloud: “This is my year of strength.” Her clear intention results in a phone call; her rapist has been identified―fourteen years after the crime.Offering all the gripping and uplifting details of a story that sparked national interest―Heck appeared on the front page of The Washington Post and was interviewed by Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America―A Fierce Belief in Miracles lights the way for those seeking to heal from life’s traumas by demonstrating the importance of clear intention and trusting inner guidance, and the transformative power of forgiveness.Review“Heck is a bracingly honest and clear writer, and her penchant for detail . . . gives her recollections an intense feeling of immediacy. Her prose is simple and graceful. . . . A candid remembrance that examines pain and celebrates growth.”―Kirkus Reviews“This beautifully written page-turner about a cyclist with a passion for exploring wilderness trails gently guides readers through her violation of rape into a courageous and creative healing journey of self-discovery. The unexpected potentials and guides she meets―both inner and outer―embolden this indomitable traveler to befriend her fear, anger, resistance, and pain, and eventually enjoy her rewards of trust and spiritual meaning. Wise and breathtakingly honest, this inspiring story will bring hope to those who suffer the after-effects of trauma and long to liberate their captive truths into consciousness.”―Jean Benedict Raffa, EdD, author of The Bridge to Wholeness, Dream Theatres of the Soul, Healing the Sacred Divide, and The Soul’s Twins“Anne gives us the courage to trust that the unconventional path to healing might just be the greatest gift of our lives.”―Amy B.
