About this ebook
The star of The Bachelor, Dancing With The Stars, and co-host of the Morning Dose talk show shares her story with warmth, enthusiasm, and humor.
Best known as the girl who was proposed to by The Bachelor star Jason Mesnick and then dumped on national TV six weeks later, Melissa Rycroft immediately turned her life around. She's married to her original love, Tye Strickland, and the couple now have three children, and here Melissa shares her “Cinderella” story of overcoming heartbreak and finding happiness.
Melissa Rycroft got her start on the CMT reality TV series Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team and was selected for the 2006-2007 NFL Season. That’s when her personal life first fell apart, and the man that she was in love with broke up with her. To help her get over her heartbreak and overcome depression, her friends nominated her to participate as a contestant on The Bachelor. When Mesnick revealed that he was breaking his engagement off with her because he chose the wrong girl, she garnered a lot of respect for handling the shock with such grace and decorum even though she was angry and heartbroken. Two days later, Melissa clinched a spot on Dancing With The Stars, placing third in the competition, and reconciled with her true love. In a “girlfriend to girlfriend” voice readers love, Melissa shares entertaining stories and valuable survival tips from a woman who has “been there and back!”

Pretty easy read. But disappointed more wasn't discussed. The point of writing a book is to talk about everything-- especially if you address it. There were several issues/things Melissa brought up but didn't fill the reader in on.
