Unfathomable Love
by Linda Diane Wattley
 
 
"Charge of an Angel", the first of the "Love and Redemption Series", continues as Leona Tillard, the survivor of an uncensored childhood love, begins her journey into the heart of "Unfathomable Love".


When Leona graduated from high school, she joined the United States Army.  It was then she learned there was plenty of love to go around; after all, the Army is one place men outnumbered the women.  Her only dilemma was figuring out which love was the best love for her to embrace.

Hearing the words 'I love you' heals our souls.  The ironic thing about it, very seldom do two people share the same meaning for love.  This is usually fine until someone else's meaning of love changes our lives forever.   

In "Charge of an Angel", Leona Tillard asked for your help as she survived her daily childhood nightmare.  Today, she is asking you to help her to choose the right man to love forever.  Do I love the soldiers or do I love my big brother's best friend?

Sounds like an easy task, doesn't it?  Trust me, you too just might choose the wrong one.  Let's see if we can save Leona once again.

Unfathomable Love (Love and Redemption Series Book 2)
 

Those of us who read Linda's book 'Charge Of An Angel' have been waiting to read 'Unfathomable Love'. Main character Leona Tillard is now a young adult and on a journey to wholeness in her life. How does love factor into this journey and where does God fit into her life?

Meet the people in Leona's young adult life including some from her childhood. You will be privy to letters and a narrative that might bring up memories of your own. I quote not to spoil the story, but to enlighten you so you will want to read further.

"The next morning when I woke up everyone was gone. According to the note I found in the kitchen, they had gone to the grocery store. As I looked around at our home, my heart was heavy. The pain-free home I once visited had become a place of progressive doom. Dennis and I had brought misery to this house. They called it evil, I called it pure darkness. While I was looking in the refrigerator for something to drink, the home line phone rang. At first, I didn't want to answer it. I felt like hiding myself for a while, but the phone kept ringing. Reluctantly, I answered it."

Even the description of Leona's "Grandma Tillard" might carry you back to your own childhood when a grandmother's presence and warm embrace brought a sense of belonging, even when you didn't know how lost you were.

Follow Leona as she graduates high school and joins the Army primarily as an escape. The green uniforms and rigid routines brought some level of isolation, but ultimately a new world emerged. This new world is filled with attractive, buff, single men with desires. The problem, how is she to find the right man and will he embrace love the same way she does?

When you read, allow Leona's story to waken within your sub-conscious to things that might need a healing touch. Healing is a journey that takes a lifetime to achieve.

I, (Theodocia McLean) endorse 'Unfathomable Love' (Love and Redemption Series Book 2). I encourage you to read 'Charge Of An Angel' (Love and Redemption Series-Part 1) by Linda Diane Wattley.     

 

 
 

Excerpt: Unfathomable Love by Linda Diane Wattley
 
 
"Lord God, so much love, help me choose!"

While lying in bed I wondered about the God who created this world. What did this God expect for us to do with our lives after being damaged by the adults around us?  I wasn't the only one hurt by Bruce. Mark and Dennis had suffered also only they both fled to avoid the pain, but I was still there. Trapped during the horrible wake of what Bruce created.

What did this God expect me to do? Run away, too?  All of this just when I was finally getting a chance to know my mother and real father, why?

As much as I hated it, I felt myself becoming angry with God.

"Leona, Mark wants to talk to you, hurry up he has a class to get to soon!" yelled Mom.

"Here I come," I yelled down the hall, jumping out of bed.

"Mark, what's up?  You're still coming home, aren't you?" I asked when I took the phone from Mom.

"Calm down, sis. I'll be there."

"You better," I laughed. "So, what's up?"

"I can sense something is wrong, Leona. What's going on with you?"

My face grew hot. "What are you talking about Mark? I'm fine."

"No, you're not. I know what's going on."

I didn't want to say anything, but he was starting to freak me out.

"Mark, knock it off. What are you talking about?"

He let out a sigh. "I don't want you to be angry with God," he finally said.

My mouth fell open with shock. "How did you know? I didn't tell anybody."     

"You told God. Now just listen to me for a minute.  One day you will understand. When we entered this world, we entered a pre-existing twilight zone. Duality rules here. If you don't remember anything else, remember this; God is our true Father, and this is all that really matters."

"Now you sound like the Mark I know and love," I said with a smile on my face.

"You should feel stronger. In fact, our whole family should feel stronger. This is what happens when a link is empowered with truth."

"Is it because we're connected?" I asked.

"Exactly, we make each other weak or strong whether we know it or not. God is with us all the time.  We can't be disconnected from Him. Whether we acknowledge Him or not, God owns us."

"So, you're saying no matter what happens to us, our connection with God keeps us heading right into His plan for our lives?"

"Exactly, wow we feel and think about our lives doesn't matter. God sees His plan and He doesn't deviate from it for anybody. To God, everything is on course. Girl, you got me running my mouth. Let me get off this phone. I'll see you soon."

"Love you, Mark!"

"Love you, Mark!"

About the Author

Linda Diane Wattley is a proud veteran of the United States Army.  Born in Akron, Ohio attended the University of Akron majoring in Psychology. Over twelve years, a religious/philosophical columnist for the Frost Illustrated Newspaper in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

In 2016, she addressed PTSD, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder by writing, "Soldier with a Backpack, Living and Dying Simultaneously" which made her a nominee for the 'Best in Nonfiction' during the African American Literary Awards Show.  Currently, she shares her "Love and Redemption Series" a dramatically written series promising to get victims to healing.

BPM:  What made you want to become a writer? How long have you been writing?
I have actually been a writer for over thirty years beginning mainly as a columnist with a newspaper in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  What made me become a writer is an experience that revealed to me how powerful the unseen spirit is.  The spirit took control of me one night and pretty much dictated to me what must be written.  I believe the Biblical writers had the same experience.  There is no peace if you ignore it.

BPM:  How long have you been writing?
I have been writing for over twenty years starting with my own column in “Frost Illustrated Newspaper in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

BPM:  How has writing impacted your life?
Writing has impacted my life in miraculous ways.  It has been such a multiple healing for me and others.  Something about it is transforming and strengthening.  I will never forget my first book sold to a teenager who understood my topic of molestation.  First she thanked and hugged me, and then she told me she allowed her father to do her to protect her little sisters.  The feedback and hope that has been shared makes my vulnerability well worthwhile.

BPM:  Do you view writing as a kind of spiritual practice?
Definitely, bringing the unseen to being seen is a spiritual process that is quite rewarding to the instrument making it possible and those receiving it.  It is such an honor to be used by spirit.  You know you have purpose beyond your own space in the world.

BPM:  How do you think you’ve evolved creatively?
Good question, I was thinking about how amazing I have grown.  I see things so much more clearly than I did when I started writing.

BPM:  What was one of the most surprising things you learned while creating your books?
How sacrificing it is to share your soul, you give your gifts and talents to the world knowing it is God’s will.  It is overwhelming from the standpoint you have to do it or be miserable yet when you do it, you feel it is still more to give.  You become a fountain, an unending fountain that consumes you if you are genuine.

BPM:  How do you find or make time to write?
I only write when I am led to write.  That is why it is so fascinating.  It comes into me and I let it out.  It reminds me of Biblical authors.  God has instruments to share His messages.  People tend to underestimate the power of a novel but I know they are powerful.

BPM:  How did you choose the genre you write in?
I actually do not choose genre until I am forced to because everything about my writing is to get a message out that God has given me.  Society forces me to choose.

BPM:  Have you considered writing in another genre?
LOL!  I know from what I hear a lot of genres I will not touch, I just write and see where I belong.

BPM:  Tell us about your most recent work, Unfathomable Love. Available on Nook and Kindle?
Unfathomable Love is currently available on Kindle. My most available work is so heartfelt and priceless to me because it marks a time in my life when I was no longer at the mercy of my family.  “Unfathomable Love” is a serious love story.  When soldiers love, they really go into something.  I really love this book, the second book of my “Love and Redemption Series”.

BPM:  Give us some insight into your main characters in Unfathomable Love.
Always, Leona Tillard because she survived conditioned love as a child and then she becomes a soldier who is so loved by other soldiers who do not know her struggles.  The love in this book is real.  It makes you wonder just which love is best

BPM:  What makes each one so special?
Her brother Dennis is very special also because he loves his sister but he questions who he is because his father sexually abused her sister, it makes him think love is unacceptable.  The three men who love Leona are also special, you read the book you will know what I mean.

BPM:  What was your hardest scene to write, the opening or the close?
I would have to say the ending because it is all about possibly loving someone to death.

BPM:  Share one specific point in your book that resonated with your present situation or journey.
Knowing who you are not is just as important as knowing who you are.  Today, I can say knowing I am not the lesser person people were attempting to make me be is a priceless truth I hold dear.

BPM:  Is there a specific place/space/state that you find inspiration in?
Always home because that is the only place that is Heaven on earth for me.

BPM:  Do you want each book to stand on its own or do you prefer to write series?
I would say both because it is a time for everything.

BPM:  Does writing energize you?
Yes, writing energizes me because I am always curious to see what this work is going to be.

BPM:  Is there one subject you would never write about as an author? What is it?
Yes, I will never write about vampires because it is so selfish how they kill for their own survival.

BPM:  Is there a certain type of scene that's harder for you to write than others?
I am a flowing writer.  Whatever is supposed to be shared, I freely share it.

BPM:  Have you written any other books that are not published?
Yes, it is coming!  “Last Day of Victimization.”

BPM:  What projects are you working on at the present?
Right now, I am working on my new platform as an online TV Host for my show, “The Truth Will Set You Free” affiliated with TLBTV and the Beacon Project.  I interview people who have a truth they want to share with the world.

BPM:  What is your preferred method to have readers get in touch with or follow you?
I love sharing on Facebook and e-mails.

BPM:  How can readers discover more about you and your work?
