"Years ago, while walking through the displays at a convention, my sweet Southern friend and I spied a big name in publishing. Her petite self was dressed adorably in a floral skirt with a matching summer sweater. She looked every bit the professional ... but her feet were donned with flip flops. My friend nearly fell over at the abomination of it all, until I pointed out that the assailing shoes were blinged-out. How like another of my belle friends to note the importance of rhinestones on our footwear--no matter the style--especially as we women journey through this thing called "life." You'll laugh (hard!) at the hilarity of it all, but you'll also ponder the grace we, as women, have been blessed with."—Eva Marie Everson, bestselling Southern fiction author, and author of The One True Love of Alice-Ann

Packed with stories and anecdotes that anyone can relate to, Rhinestones on My Flip-Flops is a wonderful, inspirational journey that will make you love the path the Lord has laid out for your life." —Eric Chester, award-winning speaker and bestselling author of On Fire At Work: How Great Companies Ignite Passion in Their People Without Burning Them Out

"Open. Honest. Touching. Hilarious. All these describe Jane Herlong and this wonderful book. If you are the one person on the planet who never has to deal with change, don't read this. But, if you are like the other 99.999% of us, Janes delightful book will give perspective, encouragement, and a wheelbarrow full of laughter."—Lou Heckler, speaker and coach to speakers

"Jane's way of looking at the world is candid and affecting. She has a talent for capturing the humor in every situation while distilling life's moments into wisdom we can use. Her writing, speaking, and singing are exhilaratingly unique. Whenever I have the chance to join her, I consider it a privilege and a joy."—Jonellen Heckler, internationally published novelist

"I feel like I've just stumbled into a woman's party from the back porch and what I'm hearing won't let me leave! I'm laughing, I'm learning, I'm reliving the flips and the flops in my own life and reconsidering how to be a better man. This book isn't just for women, it can reshape the way any man thinks. Jane is a modern-day Lucille Ball meets Mark Twain. Not just hilarious, though she is, but full of insight, misdirection, and helping you see the right path. I love this book and can't wait to laugh my way through it again and again."—Jason Hewlett, CSP, CPAE, Hall of Fame Keynote Speaker, author, entertainer, and family man

"Rhinestones on my Flip-Flops is a must read for any woman seeking to find meaning in life's challenges or events that Jane calls flip-flops. She describes the unknown route of our journey as potentially rewarding and even fulfilling if we are willing to pack our suitcases full of sound teaching and humor. From the moment I began reading until the closing chapter, I laughed, cried, and reflected as I read about the women of the Bible through the lens of how they learned to sparkle in the midst of life's trials. Jane's modern version of the Proverbs 31 woman is worth the purchase of the book! The lingering question as you read through this outstanding book is, "Will I shine in the midst of life's flip-flops?" How you answer this question will determine whether or not you will craft the most beautiful pair of rhinestone flip flops possible proving that life's challenges faced with courage and humor, can be gems worn for life."—Joanne Ellison, speaker, author, CBN.com contributor, HIS Radio Contributor, WJNI Radio Contributor, and founder and director of Drawing Near to God
