Ruby

Read Ruby Storyline:

The only family Ruby
Landry has ever known are her loving guardian, Grandmère Catherine, a
Cajun spiritual healer, and her drunken, outcast Grandpèrb Jack.
Although thinking about her dead mother and mysterious father sometimes
makes her feel as mournful as the wind sighing through the Spanish moss,
Ruby is grateful for all she has. Her life is filled with hope and
promise...especially when her attraction for handsome Paul Tate blossoms
into a mysterious, wonderful love. But Paul's wealthy parents forbid
him to associate with a poor Landry, and Grandmère urges her to follow
her dream of becoming a great painter, foreseeing a time when Ruby will
be surrounded with riches in the dazzling city of New Orleans! Yet she
cannot know how close that uncertain future looms....In a faded
photograph, Ruby glimpses for the first time the image of her father —
and learns of a shameful deception and a shocking scheme of blackmail
that now must come to light. Stunned by these revelations, she is
devastated when Grandmère dies, leaving her to seek out her father in
his vast New Orleans mansion. There, in a house of lies, madness, and
cruel torment, Ruby clings to her memories of Paul to keep her heart
alive. For only their love can save her now....
