What is a sister? What should a sister be? How do you relate to your sister—in childhood, adult hood, and throughout life? What are the characteristics and traits of sisters? What are the personalities of sisters? Are there particular types of sister groups? In My Sister, My Enemy, author Dr. Pamela Renee Applewhite journeys through sisterhood using various sister examples, traits, personalities, interactions, relationships, thoughts, whims, notions, and more. A total reflection of sisterhood, she shares various examples of sisters to demonstrate how we have been, how we have not been, and what we need to do to get it right. Filled with an array of touching and real-life sister stories, My Sister, My Enemy addresses a host of situations sisters face. Applewhite seeks to encourage sisters to find healing or triumphant victories. Geared for sisters old, young, and in between, she not only chronicles her personal story, but that of others who have experienced the joys, pains, happiness, trials, tribulations, sadness, loneliness, death of a sister, and revivals of sisterhood. It’s about getting back to love, to closeness, and to sharing.

Jealousy will destroy you and everyone around you when it causes hate to control your life. My sister's hatred of me destroyed not only both of our lives but our entire family as well.

Stories about siblings abound in literature, drama, comedy, biography, and history. We rarely talk about our own siblings without emotion, whether with love and gratitude, or exasperation, bitterness, anger and hate. Nevertheless, the subject of what it is to be and to have a sibling is one that has been ignored by psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists. In My Dearest Enemy, My Dangerous Friend, Dorothy Rowe presents a radically new way of thinking about siblings that unites the many apparently contradictory aspects of these complex relationships. This helps us to recognise the various experiences involved in sibling relationships as a result of the fundamental drive for survival and validation, enabling us to reach a deeper understanding of our siblings and ourselves. If you have a sibling, or you are bringing up siblings, or, as an only child, you want to know what you’re missing, this is the book for you.

This is a new release of the original 1952 edition.

From the minds of the Lynn Dare duo comes a hilarious small town enemies to lovers romantic comedy perfect for fans of Meghan Quinn, Lucy Score, and Pippa Grant. Number 1: Try to be nicer to her. I doubt he'll ever manage that. Hey there, it's yours truly – the untamed, daring one. My life used to be a constant party, quite literally. Well, that’s in the past. My carefree days of feuding with my neighbor and conquering the business world came crashing down with a single accident and the loss of two lives. Now, I'm entrusted with the care of a child – a living, breathing kid with all the demands that come with her. I love her, but I never signed up for this. And I definitely didn't sign up for a war with my enemy neighbor, who's always watching as I struggle through the biggest test of my life. He's ever-present, fixing my deck, sending his puppy over to bring a smile to my niece's face, and even baking for us—well, it's worse than it sounds. There's the shouting, and all the complications that follow. I want him to keep despising me, to witness the train wreck I've become and help me forget with angry hate-kisses… and more. You know what they say… two disasters make an even bigger disaster. No resolution list of his is ever going to change that. My Enemy's Resolution List is a full-length steamy small town romantic comedy standalone with plenty of laughs and swoons.

In all this turmoil, Marjorie tries to find her own voice and figure out what is right and who the real enemies actually are. Includes an author’s note and bibliography.
