Product Description Former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres shares her secrets for a happy, fulfilling life after divorce.
After her divorce from music superstar Marc Anthony, Dayanara Torres had to learn firsthand how to handle the challenges of starting over and creating the healthiest environment possible for her two sons and herself. The most important lesson she learned is that the commitment a woman makes to herself is just as important as the commitment she made to her spouse on their wedding day. Dayanara resiliently vowed to honor and respect herself, and in Married to Me she helps other women do the same.
As a single mom, Dayanara could not find a handbook that said: This happened to me. Now, lets move forward. So, in Married to Me, she walks women through the critical stages of redefining their life after a divorce: accepting and preparing, rebuilding, and rediscovering happiness and self. Dayanara offers honest advice, personal mantras, and effective tips on family, lifestyle, beauty, and health, so that women can learn to move beyond the pain and tears, establish a new family dynamic, discover new passions, and build new relationships. Like Dayanara, readers will discover a life within themselves that is beyond their wildest dreams.

Not just for divorced women June 3, 2008 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Full Disclosure
Dayanara is a friend of mine and if I hated this book there would have been no review.
If you're looking for a tell all about Dayanara's marriage to Marc Anthony this book will be a disappointment. If you're looking for a "tell-something" you are in luck.
I don't know how but at a remarkably young age the sisters Torres (Jinny is the co-author) have found their voices. Although it appears to be geared to the divorced or divorcing woman, Married To Me is a wonderful guide for married women too.
There is more than one gentle reminder that our children are only half "ours". Married, divorced, single or looking Dayanara and Jeannette are women worth listening to. By honoring our children's fathers we honor our children.
Do not miss the chapter on Rebuilding. A smart woman begins every day fresh.
It's a charming and uplifting book with small glimpses into a very exciting life led by two insightful and glamorous women (who are surprisingly just like us).
NOTE FROM JINNY, "FINDING YOUR OWN BALANCE" I LOVE IT! June 3, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I could not put it down! We as women have struggles but to for Dyanara to write about it was great .. I was happy to read that she had so much support and love from her family.
Jeannette Torres-Alvarez loved her notes! BALANCE!!!
I know that I have picked up some wonderful tips! Thanks for sharing your ups and downs.
Good for her.... August 2, 2008 I am very happy to see that she was only 17 when she started her career. Entered to another world by winning the Mss Universe and married Marc. Is good to see that yes, she is very beautiful, have done so much and have achieved many things but, yet she doesn't live Queen's/perfect life. I think that this book is a wake up call to all these woman who think that life is perfect or like we will say in Spanish "No todo es color de rosa." In any event, the book is worth to invest the time, money and energy.....! Well done Dayanarra. From Boston, Ma.

Definitely uplifting book August 9, 2008 This book is good for women going through the tough time of a divorce. I gives helpful hints to help yourself so you can move on with your life
Impressive! August 14, 2008 I bought this book because Yari is a well-known celebrity in the Philippines back in the 90's. I was just curious.... like I also bought Tori Spelling's book... However, I found this book really INSPIRING. How I wish I had this book while I was going through my divorce. I have collections of books about divorce, moving on, rebuilding from well known Psychologists and recommendations from my therapist. But this is the first and only book that I will keep reading until I can rediscover myself again. Good job Yari! You are now my idol and inspiration.
