The Fledgling

by Jillian Ritenour

Overview

Victoria Lee's fight for life started at birth. As she grew into a young woman, the fight continued leaving her little room to breathe the air she needed to grow. Daddy and I's protection came from a natural place Momma's protection--from a broken one, a scathed and loveless childhood. Although Victoria's childhood is far from loveless... it seems lifeless so Victoria begins to ignore her natural instincts and becomes more attentive to those that allow her to feel less like a caged bird and more like a seventeen year old. Will a relationship that could ruin two families yet bring on more freedom for Victoria and allow her to take flight, or will a predator who is already hovering stop her wings from flapping taking away the little freedom she already has. The fledgling is a traditional story about life, love, falling in love and the strength it takes to let go of those we love beyond the grasp of our reality; because it is those times, when we release our grasp, letting go with hope while holding onto faith--we can come back from tragedy...Victorious.

About the Author

I am a 44 year old out of practice childcare/pre-school teacher. After March of 2020, I left the classroom and started nurturing The Fledgling that I began writing eight years before. I am a mother of two grown girls and live with my husband, my dad, and our newest addition—German Sheppard, Remi. I thank God that I am now able to strum the keyboard most days to try and come up with great stories to share. Thank you to everyone who has supported me and takes the time to read The Fledgling. I am so happy it has finally taken flight. I was inspired by so many of the great women in my life. Hey, parenting is hard, mommying...even harder but it brings the greatest joy and hopefully The Fledgling will bring you as much entertainment and happiness as it brought me writing it.
God bless, Happy reading
