Recent release "Maggie" from Page Publishing author Jean Hudson is an engaging debut novel set in a rural midcentury English town. A young girl with a jealous and hateful older sister and uncaring parents seeks love and acceptance elsewhere, usually without success.
NEW YORK, March 18, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Jean Hudson, a mother of two who was born and raised in a rural community in England, where she lived before migrating to Canada with her husband and children, has completed her book "Maggie": a poignant story about one woman's search for love and belonging.
Maggie's story began at an early age in the mid-1950s to 1960s. She grew up in a hostile environment, where instead of being protected by her parents, she needed protection from them. Physical and mental abuse were almost a daily occurrence. Tormented constantly by her sister, Mary, her brother, Mike, was the only light in her life.
Things did not improve as Maggie reached her teenage years; if anything, they worsened. Lack of love from her parents sent Maggie in pursuit of affection elsewhere. With no parental support or guidance, Maggie experienced her first sexual encounter at the tender age of fourteen.
Depression and anxiety haunted Maggie. Marrying at an early age only served to worsen her mental state. After the birth of her daughter, Charlene, Maggie soon realized that even a new baby was not going to hold her marriage together.
Maggie was seduced by a much older man, who convinced her to leave her husband, Tony, and move in with him. For the first time in her life, Maggie felt truly loved and protected, only to discover after a few short weeks of living with Hal that he had lied to her about his own marital state.
Desperate to protect Charlene, Maggie had no choice but to move back to the house, which Tony had listed for sale. Once it was sold, they would go their separate ways. One day, Maggie hoped to find peace in her life.
Jean Hudson proposes to donate a percentage of her profits from the sales of her book titled "Maggie", to both the American and the Canadian Mental Health Assn. Mental Health illness is something that Jean Hudson feels very strongly about, knowing many people who are sadly afflicted by this illness.
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Jean Hudson's book is a warmhearted story about resilience and the universal human need for love and acceptance.
Readers who wish to experience this touching work can purchase "Maggie" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
