D-Day for Ruth Kindle Edition

by Ted Bun (Author), @Nudismnu (Illustrator) Format: Kindle Edition
4.0 out of 5 stars 42 ratings

A joyous tale of liberation for a young woman.

Ruth had made mistakes as a girl. Barely out of her teens, she had married a man because it seemed to be the thing to do.
Now she is on the verge of her divorce on the grounds of some pretty unreasonable behaviour.
Estranged from most of her friends, how is she going to mark the occasion?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I was born in London, lived most of my life in the south of England. I only say that to excuse writing with a Sarff Lundin accint.

After a lifetime of not knowing what to do, RAF Officer, TV delivery driver, medical rep, trainer, computer guy … I'd even spent three summers running a naturist resort in Portugal. I decided to try something new and retired.

Lying by the pool in the South of France, a story started to take shape in my mind. Then the days got shorter, and the evenings longer, and I started to type. The string of random words turned into “The Uncovered Policeman.” Writing this story, I met the central characters, Bea being the most important. She nagged me into telling what turned into a series of 12 light, cosy romances with a cast of pleasant happy people, with quirky characters.

The New House trilogy, about a couple's first year of retirement in France, followed. “Almost a Year in Occitanie” - No, it is not autobiographical. OK, not very autobiographical.

More recently, Crooke and Loch launch their careers, solving mysteries and crimes in “The Summer of '71” and in a series of follow-up stories spanning the 1970s.

2020 marked the debut of another character … Melody. A lady of a certain age, a generous size and blinding intelligence, who first appears in "Problems and Passions."

The darkness of the great lockdown inspired some darker tales, for example "After The Event." As well as a few more escapist ones, such as "When The Music Stops" featuring the delightful Juliet Evans the singing solicitor

    As a nudist, I enjoy a good story about naturism. And this one is no exception. This story is a must-read!

    Ah, Love. With quite a lot of English the way only a Brit born to it could write it, we read of a sensitive young lass caught up with a strange partner, and then the lamp is lit and IT happens. Memories appear to come alive and all just may right with the world . Or does the imagination expand too much ?

    1.0 out of 5 stars So boring
    Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2021

    A short and pointless story that goes nowhere. There is absolutely no character development; each person in the story so one-dimensional that they come off one-dimensional. The character of Alan has not one redeeming quality which makes Ruth seem so pathetic for ever marrying him. The first chapter bounces back-and-forth from past to present that you get whiplash reading the story. No story arc whatsoever. A waste of time.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Ok, BUT
    Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2021
    Not up to typical Red Bun stories. Too wordy and more of a true confession type story. A bit slow and very slow in spots. Normally, Bun delivers excellent, nicely paved stories...This one is a bit forced.

    A failed marriage is the backdrop of this story. Ruth re-discovers what it means to be happy. Her inner dialog captures the lack of esteem that living with someone who can't love can cause. I love the happy ending.
