"Charismatic Connection is a beautifully written [story] in which the main characters are soul mates who meet again and recognize each other at a deep spiritual level long before their lives become intertwined through thoroughbred racing. They are both protagonists with deep sorrow in their immediate lives, seeking solace but constantly torn from the immediate connection and pull they felt towards each other from time immemorial. The book is truly for romantics and horse lovers, as the plot is revealed through the running of many well-known horse races and events that keep bringing the two main characters into contact with each other, in ever-deepening ways. The book is one that will keep you reading to the end,with amazing spiritual overtones in a way that will draw you in."-Bonnie Neely, Real Travel Adventures Magazine Editor

"The device of telling the twin stories of Serena Jade and Chris Antley using alternating narrators works, especially in that it creates a sense of immediacy and intimacy. Readers feel as if they have been given a unique and privileged window into the hearts and minds of two people. Experiencing the stories in this way means that by the end of the book, readers feel they truly understand the suffering both Serena and Chris have withstood, as well as your struggles to transcend the limitations and weaknesses of their less formed selves."-Francesca, CreateSpace Editor

Thank you for writing a true to form book which has a lot of didactic value about Love Connection and thrivorship.  Your insight, vision, and the way you compiled your narratives was compelling. This book so far among a sample of our readership, has expanded the consciousness and ideas of women from various social, economic and cultural backgrounds offering a sense of hope and providing an oasis of information as to how to live a life triumphantly. The ideas articulated through your prose resonate deeply within the human condition.Charismatic Connection was brought to our attention through your publicist and a randomly selected group of 20 members of our readership were assigned to choose four books out of 12 to determine ones that stood out and would appeal to our audience.  Charismatic Connection is truly one of a C A T A G O R Y of its own. Your passion and dedication inspires me.- Joslyn Wolfe, Publisher of Focus on Women Magazine.

"This movie totally captured the love of two people who were destined for each other... This book totally captured the love of two people who were destined for each other. As just as important, it is their love of horses that binds them in a story that shows the human spirit overcoming all major difficulties and disappointments. You can really feel the soul searching that each of them went through. And, in addition, this is a true story -- and it is incredibly uplifting! And for the horse lovers, it takes you deep into the workings of the all the major race tracks -- Del Mar, Santa Anita, Keeneland, Aqueduct, Saratoga -- and some that are no longer around -- like Garden State Racetrack.. It has a feel of "Secretariat" and "Seabiscuit", and you will end up pulling for them both!"-Beth Hegedus

 

"In this riveting true story Serena Jade puts together a road map of how to connect the dots to a true soul mate experience. Throughout this extremely well written non-fictional story the reader is forced to answer the question are these experiences coincidence or fate? The answer was clearly fate when Serena Jade went to Greece and all of the pieces of the puzzle came together. This was crystallized when she was drawn to turning on the TV to watch Chris Antley win the 1999 Kentucky Derby on the horse Charismatic. If you want to understand the true soul mate experience, Charismatic Connection is a must read."-Craig Heller

"I finished the book in two days because I couldn't put it down. It's well-written and I am just blown away by your encounters with Chris!!!! I know you once mentioned to me that he only said one word to you: "Wow!"... but I had no idea that you'd run into him in unlikely places - over and over again-- and that he'd come right up to you but be too shy to talk! That is just such a surreal story!!"-Linda T.
