Imprint

When Mary Beth and her family moved to the East Coast to live in a home she'd chosen, she assumed she had landed in heaven. Her husband took a teaching job at a small Christian college, while she took care of the three children in her castle--and found a shining star in Melo, her husband's female student.A year later, Mary Beth found her life upended as her husband grew jealous of her relationship with Melo--which was soaring from friendship into love. After relocating to Minneapolis, she found her new feelings of freedom and love were still mixed with paralyzing self-doubt--and as Melo wandered further away, Mary Beth realized she needed to embrace her internal strength to find true peace and liberation.Rooted in the struggles of coming out in the eighties and nineties, Imprint is a candid account of escaping brutality for self-love, and embodies the fight for self-identity, independence, and equality that women and members of the LGBTQ+ community still face today.
