Summary: Taking Diamonds From The Dirt
Comment: I have read this book and the gems of wisdom are so prevalent - I just had to comment! Curiously enough, the negative reviews in this site piqued my curiosity - and instead of shallowness, vanity or "dish" I found real honesty and human being speaking of the value of "getting real" with mistakes made in life and learning from them. The best way to describe this book is a series of redemtive lessons and a transformation to love and care for others and life. Thank you Tylo family for being so candid. Hunter also has a wonderful charity called Hunter's Chosen Child! Look for those diamonds in the dirt...

Summary: Very Interesting and Hard to Put Down
Comment: I read this book in like two days! That is how good it was. You won't want to put it down. It was well worth the price. Hunter Tylo is one beautiful, determined, strong,and VERY fascinating woman.
"Miracle" explores (in depth) everything from her childhood in TX,start in show business,to her Melrose Pl. Trial for Pregnancy Discrimination. I found much of the book shocking,revealing and even so inspiring.
Other points in the book had me moved to tears, like her Mother's negativity toward her, her breakup with her husband and her sweet baby's battle against cancer. The book was really gripping, almost as addictive as chocolate!

Summary: Facinating Read
Comment: The book starts with her leaving B&B in 1996, after she found a role with "Melrose Place". A few weeks later she learned she was pregnant, and out of courtesy told the execs at Melrose the news. Soon she found herself without a job, she was fired from Melrose because she was pregnant. She had enough issues getting the role, with her newfound Christianity she was concerned about the role she would be playing, in which they gave very few details and were evasive with their answers to her questions. We don't find out what happens as a result of her termination until later in the book, near the end.
She goes back to her childhood, to her first marriage where she was pregnant with her first son, Chris, and the tumultuous relationship she had with his father. Doing many commercials, she eventually found an acting job at "All My Children", where she met her future husband, Michael Tylo. At this point in the book we are introduced to their relationship, and it is a bumpy rollercoaster ride. She kicks him out, they fight over work, she gets him arrested, he tries to take her kids away from her, it was a constant battle. He lost his job at AMC after she did, and then she found work on "Days of Our Lives", being fired shortly after, then finding work at B&B.
She accounts her friendship with co-star at B&B, Kimberlin Brown, and the problems that happened there. Lots of history there. Then Hunter landed a role in a mini series shot in India and Canada, her marriage with Michael failing, she fell in love with a man over there who had her succumb to false religion, and she was manipulated. Her marriage at its final thread, more constant fighting, and it seemed everything in her life had gone down the toilet so to speak. Then she found her faith in religion again, and talks about how it saved her marriage. Then the Melrose fiasco.
The court case lasted an incredibly long time, and Spelling Enterprizes used every dirty tactic to make her look like a spoiled brat who was after their money. She was ashamed for a moment for considering having an abortion. I found this part of the book facinating, although disturbing that as she put it, they didn't want to admit that her child existed, not before, certainly not then either. She won the case, and during describing the trial, we learn of a shocking secret she had held within her for a long time, which I won't spoil here.
She got her job back at B&B and had two other children. Her first daughter, who she was pregnant with during the Melrose fiasco, Bella, and then she was pregnant again during the trial with Kayta. It turns out Kayta had a rare eye cancer disease, and Hunter talks candidly about her chemotherapy and the heartbreak she went through during this time, when she questioned her faith, and was left confused.
Overall a facinating read about Hunter's triumphs and tribulations in life, it's a shame she's not at B&B anymore, she really brought morality and class to that show that is now lacking on the show.
