The Journey of Ruthie Belle makes a stop at Blessed and Curvy

Greetings from the desk of Patricia A. Saunders

I wanted to share with you the new book release of my fellow author Imani Wisdom. I asked her to stop by and tell me about her book and about herself.

Tell me a little about your book:

How does one find redemption when there’s nothing to redeem?

The meek, Ruthie Belle dreams of one day being free from her husband’s constant mental and physical torment, until one day she finds the courage to break free from his bondage. Even though the plan goes without a hitch, Ruthie spends the rest of her life riddled in guilt and shame. Later at the ripe age of 103, Ruthie discovers forgiveness and redemption are a part of everyday journeys.

During her pilgrimage, she meets people from her past and makes new and important friends to help her heal and to find understanding. Yet the further into her journey, the darker it gets. Ruthie discovers things aren’t the way it seems when her shame comes back for his revenge – her husband. Will new revelations keep her from her pursuit to redemption? Or will the haunting of her past stop her cold in her tracks?
