Description:

An important, life-changing memoir. Unlike other celebrity tell-alls, this story is raw and fresh with the emotion of Bill Hudson's agony and despair after his marriage to first wife, Goldie Hawn, ended -- and his alienation from his children, Kate and Oliver, began to take its toll. During the heady 1970s, a wildly popular Beatle-esque group called The Hudson Brothers took the US and the world by storm. The group -- made up of brothers Bill, Mark, and Brett -- became an immediate pop-culture phenomenon with hit singles, a TV show, and countless merchandise items. Handsome lead singer Bill Hudson went on to become a fixture in Hollywood largely due to his romantic liaisons. Thanks to his dashing good looks, he dated the likes of Jill St. John, Ali MacGraw and Loretta Swit before meeting Goldie Hawn at the height of his popularity. The beautiful couple married in 1976 and eventually had two children -- Oliver and Kate Hudson. From the demands of stardom to shifting priorities in their lives, the marriage ended in divorce, and Bill moved out in 1980. Two years later, with his divorce not yet final, Bill met actress Cindy Williams who was in the most-watched TV comedy of the time Laverne & Shirley. But Bill doesn't leave it there. With the wisdom that comes with the passage of time, he learns about such issues as father's rights, and parent-child alienation. These are presented in all of their tragedy so that others can learn from his successes -- and his blunders. Now Bill Hudson shares all his memories in his book
