Review for Tabula Rasa: Writing a New Story (Beauty for Ashes Book1) by Ana Waters


Ana Waters is a summa cum laude graduate of the University of Georgia with a B.A. in Religion and specific emphasis in Judaic and Biblical studies. She penned her first romance novel at the age of twelve, and she has never stopped writing the same books she loves to read. She lives outside of Atlanta, GA with her brood of precocious children and survives on a steady diet of Scripture, chocolate, and laughing at the absurdity of life and motherhood.

There are three other completed novels in the Beauty for Ashes series, and Ana has already begun work on the fifth.

Thirty-two-year-old Rebecca Ivy escapes a church where sin abounds even more than she realizes. Betrayed and broken, the ugliness of her past prevents her from recognizing the beauty in the mirror. She soon catches the watchful eye of her Jewish co-worker, Ted Margolin, who sees a woman worthy of his protection. As an unexpected romance blooms, Rebecca struggles to reconcile all she’s been taught with the golden sparkle in the mighty Margolin’s eyes. Old family secrets come to light, and Rebecca battles rumors and threats designed to keep her silent. Meanwhile, Ted must fight for Rebecca and against his own doubts about God. Rebecca's unwavering faith in Jesus confounds and intrigues Ted, but will it be enough to give them a tabula rasa (blank slate) to erase the past and create a new story of their own?

 

My review for Tabula Rasa:  🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟


Wonderful story with a great message!

I was asked to read this book in advance and give my honest opinion and feedback. I loved it. I actually enjoyed it so much, that I read it twice in a row. You can’t help but fall in love with the main characters. It has a bit of everything, including romance that gets your heart rate going, but is clean at the same time and doesn’t go into inappropriate territory. Tabula Rasa also has an important message about emotional and physical abuse and how important it is to stand up against bullies but also step in and protect those who can’t stand up for themselves. It is a wonderful book and definitely deserves every single star.
