Jasmine Tucker, a successful full-figured advertising executive struggles with her outter beauty – her weight. Over the last few year Jasmine has tried several diet pills and exercise videos to achieve beauty that she think she needs. However, it will take more than a “quick fix” to transform her life and release the true beauty she already possess. Not only does Jasmine struggle with her weight but she has passed along one of her “issues” to someone very close to her. Jasmine’s weight is the least of her problems. Will Jasmine finally realize that her weight is not the issue and seek God’s face to find the REAL root of her “weight” issue. OR… will she allow another pill to be the answer?

Mesha delivers on getting the reader to understand what true beauty is and how to achieve it. The book cover is only half of what the book entails. Overall, Mesha delivered an exceptional book. She focused on several issues that women often go through collectively or individually. I recommend this book to all women and teenage girls.

About the Author
Mesha Coleman originally from Oklahoma City is number six of eleven children and credits her strong matriarchal linage for her creative spirit and tenacity. Some authors are born to write while others acquire a love for writing along life’s journey. Author Mesha Coleman has always loved to write poetry but not until attending a spoken word event was she inspired to write a play which turned into her first novel “A Big Women’s Blues”. After creating the first novel the flood gates opened and the creative spirit of writing came rushing in. Her works will support both original writings under her given name as well as writings under her alias or what she calls her alter ego: Zephyr Rose. As a new author Mesha is excited about the opportunity to share her fictional creations with you and looks forward to an adventure filled ride.
