After the Ball:
A Woman's Tale of Reclaiming Happily Ever After

by Barb Greenberg

Divorced after thirty-three years, Barb worked through her pain, found healing and wholeness, and was determined to share what she had learned. Her book After the Ball, which began as a story for divorced and divorcing women, blossomed into a tale for all women seeking to reconnect with their strength and power and wisdom. As with her first book, Hope Grew Round Me, Barb uses her personal experience to inspire courage and offer hope to her readers.

Hope Grew Round Me:
A Daughter's Life-Threatening Accident Plants the Seeds
of a Mother's Self-Discovery

by Barb Greenberg

The middle of the night phone call...
The flight half way around the world...
The vigil by a daughter's hospital bed...

As her child heals, a mother discovers pieces of herself that are broken and damaged. And while mother and daughter take different journeys, both lives are repaired.

This is one woman's journey from crisis to transformation. Though it is a personal account, the themes of courage and healing and of love are universal. We each have our own journey to take and every one is unique in its details. By sharing her story, Barb hopes to inspire and encourage others to honor every step.
