ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 3, 2012 /Christian Newswire/ -- Best-selling author, Janet Perez Eckles' story of triumph over blindness, marital infidelity, the murder of her son and the acquittal of the man responsible impacts thousands. Being blind, she teaches others to see the best of life. Janet delights and inspires listeners and viewers with contagious joy, a touch of humor, and profound insight to turn trials to triumph. You can see a sample of her message in this video of her TV interview on Fox 35 News.

Most recently, Janet invites her readers to say "Hola" to happiness in her new release by that title. 'Hola Happiness: Finding Joy by Dancing to the Melody of God's Word' is a short devotional full of biblical teachings and reflections that are enriched by links to video content. Reviewers thus far have raved about the book; here's what one of them had to say: "I had no real knowledge of how to apply God's Word to my own fears, sorrows, or insecurities. After devouring, 'Hola, Happiness: Finding Joy by Dancing to the Melody of God's Word,' suddenly many of my life-questions had answers! Broken down into four easy-to-understand lessons, I like that it can be a reflective study either in private or in a group. Janet teaches us the necessary steps to a Paradise-bound salsa, while listening to the joyful music of God's Word." -- Patti Turley

Following the format of her other books, 'Hola Happiness' is written with Janet's Latina flair, a bit of sass, and from the heart. The book covers topics that Janet has personally experience, such as inadequacies, insecurities, marriage, motherhood, trials, and more. Another reviewer said: "I found the topics and bible verses personally helpful as they address the daily struggles we face when we wake up in the morning. They address the attacks and the lies the devil puts in our minds and hearts every day. And you counter attack them with God's soothing & melodious words of promises and hope for an abundant and complete life in Christ alone. The format is brilliant!" -- Nora Peters

Janet's hope for the book is that, no matter what struggles one faces, it inspires women to say 'Hola' to happiness and dance with joy to the melody of God's Word. Readers can learn more by watching the video announcement for the book that can be viewed at: bit.ly/HolaHappiness.
