ESTELL MANOR, N.J., July 6, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Maranda Ballard, a cosmetologist, a dedicated wife, and a warm mother and stepmother, has completed her new book, "Once A Widow, To A Stranger": a beautifully-written prose recounting the unpredictability of circumstances in the life of the protagonist named MaryAnn. After dealing with tragedies and loss, this resilient woman is blessed by God with refuge and comfort in the arms of a true love.
Maranda writes, "MaryAnn finally convinced her parents to allow her to join public school instead of finishing up her last four years being homeschooled. It was a day filled with excitement, love at first sight, tragedy, and losing not one but both parents. It was hard enough then to be pulled from the only home you knew and right back into homeschool. Years later, she finds herself married, living a few blocks from the home she once shared with her parents. It won't be long until tragedy hits again. What will she do? Who will be there to lift her as she begins to fall, especially when she learns the truth about her husband?"
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Maranda Ballard's new book is an emotionally resonant novella that will require a box of tissues on the side as the author takes her readers to a well-executed narrative.
In this meaningful read, the author puts emphasis in letting go of pain, grief, and even the pain from betrayal. She believes that it is through forgiveness that a person can rise from shambles.
