FallingWithWings_final

Before she was mother to global superstar Demi Lovato, she was just Dianna Hart.  Dianna tells her story from the very beginning in this complete and genuinely affecting memoir.

She had big plans of becoming a country music star, but her life went in a different direction than her dreams. She developed an eating disorder early in life to gain a sense of control in her strict upbringing. As she continued to struggle with body image and her obsession with being perfect her entire adult life, she was also met with other difficult situations. Her husband and father of her two eldest daughters, Dallas and Demi, had his own troubles that affected the entire family. She coped with alcohol and pills, forming a long-lasting addiction.

She's had terrible lows, but also some great highs, as she watched her daughters break out in Hollywood to become strong, empowered young women.

Dianna offers a unique perspective as a mother caring for daughters with addictions while continuing to battle her own. And as a family, they have survived everything life has thrown their way and come away from it stronger than ever.

Dianna, now a well-known speaker who conducts parenting seminars around the country, tells her story of living through and surviving adversity--with tremendous strength, love and faith.
