About the Book
Master storyteller and best-selling author H.B. Moore brings to life the biblical account of Ruth as never before in this vivid retelling of her courageous and faithful life.
Following the death of Ruth’s husband, she finds herself at a crossroads. Rather than return to her family and hometown, the young widow makes a remarkable decision: she will remain with her mother-in-law, Naomi, as her caretaker and companion. Together, the two widows boldly leave behind the lives they knew in the land of Moab and make their way to Bethlehem, arriving downtrodden and destitute. Though Ruth works day and night to provide for Naomi, it is ultimately through the kindness and generosity of Boaz that the two women find respite from their trials. As Ruth comes to know Boaz, she finds that her broken heart is beginning to heal in ways she could never have imagined. But when a question of inheritance threatens any hope of a life with Boaz, Ruth may have to give up the last piece of her heart in order to secure her future. About the Author

Review
Ruth by author H.B. Moore is a beautiful and inspiring story that readers will enjoy. From page one Moore brings to life the story of her Naomi, Ruth and Boaz, off the page and into the minds and imagination of readers. The novel flips back and forth between the perspectives of Ruth and Boaz. Readers will relate to and have compassion for the struggles and pains, as well as the joys and romance of these characters and their families. This is a lovely well-researched and written inspirational biblical story that readers will absolutely not want to put down.
