When a routine doctor’s visit becomes anything but routine, Claire began to slowly appreciate that her choices and lifestyle weren’t reflecting the person that she really wanted to be and subsequently, living the life she genuinely wanted. Before she knew it, she found herself on a journey of discovery that would not only transform her, but also her husband, her good friend Emily and others. Little did she know that the pair of skinny jeans that had been waiting for her in her closet would be the inspiration she needed to finally live the life she wanted. Follow Claire through her journey of self-evaluation and self-honesty as she finally understands what drives her choices and the impact that her choices have on her achieving her heart’s wants and needs. Along the way and just like Claire, you’ll learn valuable information about how to achieve your own wants and needs. You’ll gain the needed insight regarding choices and what drives them and ultimately be able to formulate a game plan that will outsmart the unhealthy choices—choices that provide immediate gratification but only keep us trapped in a life that falls short of what we truly desire for ourselves, be it physical, emotional, or spiritual. Through Claire’s story, you’ll learn how to create and embrace a new life and a new you by living your reality one choice at a time. With a perfect blend of warmth, humor, experience and common sense, Dr. Drew Huffman and Claire will show you how you can change your reality by creating the reality that more closely meets your expectations. So, what are you waiting for?

They look at the question of choice in the twenty-first century as they give voice to their generation's dilemma: How do you choose when you've been taught you can have it all?

Uriah and Claire know their fight to be with each other is far from over, but the final battle they must face is one they never expected. Claire never thought she would be the one saving anybody’s life. She never thought she would discover a secret destiny, either. Finding Uriah is Claire’s top priority because, without her, he will never be able to defeat the Matwau. To find him, she needs help from the one person she trusts least. Quaile. Claire needs the book Quaile has kept hidden from the rest of the tribe. Claire desperately hopes it will hold the answers she needs to save Uriah’s life. The book does hold answers, but not to everything. Lost memories, acceptance of destiny, and looking outside of reality provide a pathway to the answers they need most, but they also hold the power to break them both. The prices asked of them may finally be too high. If they are, their deaths will only be the beginning.
