Description

Chris Perez tells the story of his relationship with music superstar Selena in this heartfelt tribute.

One of the most compelling and adored superstars in Latin music history, Selena was nothing short of a phenomenon who shared all of herself with her millions of devoted fans. Her tragic murder, at the young age of twenty-three, stripped the world of her talent and boundless potential, her tightly knit family of their beloved angel, and her husband, Chris Perez, of the greatest love he had ever known.

For over a decade, Chris held on to the only personal thing he had left from his late wife: the touching and sometimes painful memories of their very private bond. Now, for the first time, Chris opens up about their unbreakable friendship, forbidden relationship, and blossoming marriage, which were cut short by Selena’s unforgivable death.

Chris’s powerful story gives a rare glimpse into Selena’s sincerity and vulnerability when falling in love, strength and conviction when fighting for that love, and absolute resilience when finding peace and normalcy with her family’s acceptance of the only man she called her husband. While showcasing a side of Selena that has never been disclosed before and clarifying certain misconceptions about her life and death, To Selena, with Love is an everlasting love story that immortalizes the heart and soul of an extraordinary, unforgettable, and irreplaceable icon.

  • Unforgettable Selena

    Christopher (Cristobal) Perez, poured his heart and love for Selena in this book. This book made me feel like I was inside their story, like an audience, and made me feel a roller coaster of emotions. It was well written, although I don’t tend to see celebrities as beings from another planet, learning about Selena’s character outside the public eye, made me realize that she was just a young girl with big dreams like any twenty three year old girl. She accomplished so much professionally, but personally she barely got a taste of her womanhood and marriage life. She is deeply missed and like many, I often wonder… what could’ve been?.

    I am absolutely astonished by how great this book was, I am so thankful to get to see a more personal side from the man who was not blood but absolutely loved Selena and got to get to know her so well and it was very clear from her music just how much she loved him as well. My heart is with all of Selena’s loved ones.

    This book made me laugh, smile and cry. After so many years Selena still makes an impact on each and every generation. I was born in 04 but even then Selena is my favorite girl to do it. I learned of her through my people. What Chris and Selena had is so beautiful. Selena is an inspiration. Thank you Chris for this amazing book.

    I learned a lot of new information from Chris’s perspective. It was so refreshing to get to know the side of Selena that is relatable. A wife who had mood swings, big dreams, and wanting to expand her family. Glad I got to read it.
