About this audiobook
Country music star Sara Evans’s “humble but incredible life story” (Publishers Weekly) about her rise to stardom, her roundabout path to love, and how her faith brings daily joy no matter the circumstances is an inspiring and “warm, approachable read” (Booklist).
Sara Evans—a Billboard, ACM, and CMA Award–winning country music star who’s been named one of People’s “50 Most Beautiful People” and competed on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars—has been inspiring fans throughout her successful music career.
In this powerful, personal, and often humorous book, Sara opens up and shares stories from her professional and personal life, describing what it’s like living in the spotlight and how her faith keeps her strong. She writes about overcoming life’s most challenging experiences, from a childhood accident that nearly took her life, to the loss she experienced when her parents divorced, and from her own painful and very public divorce, to finding incredible love when she least expected it with former pro-quarterback-turned-sportscaster Jay Barker. Now, after over a decade of marriage, Sara and Jay’s blended family of nine is thriving, filling her life with focus and meaning.
As she weaves the narrative of her life, Sara candidly reveals the things that are most important to her and her family now, her favorite tips about staying true to herself and her faith, knowing when to ask for help, abandoning perfectionism, and the importance of a strong support group of friends and family. “She was ‘born to fly’ and you will fly too as you read each page” (Joe Galante, former president of RCA Records).
