Unconditional love…
Luther Vandross said it best when he sang, “There’s nothing better than love…” And whether it is the devotion of your friends, family, spouse or significant other, the sense of completeness you feel when real, unconditional love abounds, is…simply indescribable.
Meet Traci & Maureen, friends, neighbors and members of the Invincible Sisterhood, who find love when they least expect or want it.
Traci Evans, a beautiful, plus size, widowed lawyer, had such a bad marriage that she’s not only bitter when it comes to matters of the heart, but she vows never to let another man get that close to her again. So when Dr. Ryan Gilmore sets out to become more than her neighbor’s son, Traci is having no part of it.
Maureen Gilmore is a wealthy, established 59 year old businesswoman, and also widowed. Her marriage was idyllic; a once in a lifetime experience. After the death of her husband, Maureen wasn’t expecting to find that kind of love again. But when love calls, you have to answer, even if it’s in the form of a younger man.
To say I loved this book would be a gross understatement. I immediately identified with Traci. Not only are we the same age, but my entire life, I’ve experienced the same self-esteem issues with regards to my plus size frame, wondering if people would ever see past the exterior and recognize the goodness that lies within.
And the Invincibles…they were hilarious and truly epitomized what real friendship should be. Everyone should be so lucky to have a group of friends who are with you through thick and thin; the good and the bad, dropping everything to be there by your side when you need them the most.
Not Even If You Begged, national bestselling author Francis Ray’s latest release, is an exemplary celebration of true friendship, undeniable passion, pure adoration and bona fide devotion. In my humble opinion, this is Ray’s best work to date.
