Personal Note from the Author:

Thank you for taking time out to learn more about me and my book. I dedicate this book to all those suffering with a broken heart. When we love, I believe that we become better people, especially if that love encompasses self-love and embraces the person that you are today. It is the possibility of this hope that makes life interesting. May you find solace in the light. May you be restored. May you begin to discover yourself, heal your heart, and be ready for the right love to find you. If you are struggling right now, please remember that: "Life always waits for some crisis to occur, before revealing itself at its most brilliant." -- Paulo Coelho

Warmest Regards,

Author of "Love Wants to Find You",

AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY:

Francine Putkowski was born and raised in Indiana, Pennsylvania. She was a cheerleader, ran hurdles and threw discus in track & field, and she was a gymnast for a private gymnastics school in Washington, Pennsylvania. As a Gym-Dandy gymnast, she was part of a State Championship team. She was accepted into the prestigious United States Naval Academy (USNA) in 1987, where she spent two and a half years. She competed in collegiate gymnastics at USNA. Ultimately, she graduated from Penn State University, at the top of her class in 1991, with a major in Labor Industrial Relations.

She has spent the last 25 years as a successful corporate Director of Risk Management and continues in this capacity. She now resides in Allentown, Pennsylvania with her two children and her husband, the loves of her life.

In her free time, you can find her taking photographs, hiking the many outdoor trails where she resides, or donating her time to local charities. Although, her greatest accomplishment, blessing and joy is being a mother to her 21-year old daughter, her 17-year old son, her 21-year old step-daughter, her 16-year old step-daughter, and being a wife to her soulmate.

BUT -- This is not where she started. Before all of this, Francine went through not one, but two divorces. Her book, LOVE WANTS TO FIND YOU (by Francine Putkowski) is a marriage/divorce/self-esteem & co-parenting self-help book, full of true stories, released on 10/17/19.

Allentown, Pennsylvania Author Francine Putkowski knows her life reads like a fairy tale, complete with dragons and hard times, before her life as a “princess.” Putkowski bares her soul to readers in her book LOVE WANTS TO FIND YOU: Learning to Love Yourself, Heal Your Heart, and Find the True Love You Deserve. “I tell my real and honest story—complete with two divorces and a lot of heartbreak. But I also share the steps I took to recover, love myself, forgive, restore my heart, and find the true love that I deserve.”

The book, described as a “true story of hope for divorced, broken-up or lonely singles” offers practical advice on both healing after divorce or breakup, along with solid advice on what to look for when dating again. The author provides valuable insights into the “red flags” that might signal the reader is committing to a toxic relationship. She touches on the realities of co-parenting and navigating her new life with a blended family. She also addresses the concept of “settling,” instead urging readers to hold out for a partner they can treasure for the long haul.

“I learned my lessons the hard way,” Putkowski shares. “Oddly enough, the fact that I experienced two broken marriages equips me to share the warning signs, the reality of rescuing your self-esteem after a divorce, along with the idea that you are indeed worthy of finding your lasting soul mate. I wrote the book in the hopes of connecting with each individual reader, so that they can avoid the relationship pitfalls that I had to endure.”

The book’s format has a story and real-life example from Putkowski’s life in every chapter, along with a “lesson learned.” She also shares inspirational and spiritual quotes throughout the book. Additionally, the author is establishing an online community {social media links) for readers to find support from others who are recovering from difficult breakups.

“Love wants to find you,” Putkowski says. “That is my ultimate message. Don’t give up.” She shares in the book that after a half-century of failing at trying to love, and be loved, she is at last completely fulfilled in her marriage and is very certain she has found the secret to a very happy and successful marriage. “When it happens to you, you’ll know, but you must love yourself first” she says.
