Meet Gentry Doxey and Iva Larson, two local residents who have recently released books that introduce us to their passions. One is about love, and the other is about glamour. Both offer readers a window into different experiences and worlds.
Marriage is Good Work
Marriage Is Good Work leaps into multiple concepts on fellowship, commitment, partnership, love, trust and sexual intimacy. This book will answer many questions about a marriage relationship and provoke conversations around topics not easily addressed in hurting marriages. Doxey says, success leaves clues.
Marriage is a commitment that begins one step at a time. The trek of a thousand miles begins with one step. The key is marrying someone that you love, respect, and trust with your secrets, your flaws, and fears.“ I believe marriage can and will work if you decide in your own heart that your marriage is worth fighting for,” says the author. Available on Amazon.com for $20.
Now That I Have Your Attention
Iva “Godiva” Larson is a former fashion model and actress who made a significant impact on both the modeling and entertainment industries. Larson is now a physical therapy resident at Riverside Post Acute Care. She began her career in the 1980s, quickly becoming a prominent beauty icon.
Now in her early 60s, Larson enjoys a quieter life in Jacksonville away from the public eye, but her legacy as a model, actress, and author continues to inspire her thoughts. Now That I Have Your Attention is a book where she shares personal stories from her career in the modeling industry, her experiences in Hollywood, and her reflections on the fashion world.
The book gives readers a close look into the life of a woman who was both a muse and a trailblazer in an industry often defined by popularity and beauty. Available on Amazon.com for $35
