Robbie had never asked to become a girl, he had only agreed to help his mother start her sewing business. After all, the family was destitute after the death of his father. But, everything had spiraled out of control. Now he was standing in his tightest girdle and highest heels, staring at the prom gown that barely covered the budding mounds on his chest. How had he ever agreed to go on a date, and with Moose Hanahan, the crudest kid in town, even if he was the largest fullback in school history. Oh, God! That was the doorbell. Moose Hanahan was already there!
Jillian Allen, author of SYMPHONY IN PINK (ASIN B075B3XPZH) once again delves deeply into the myriad ramifications of being male or female, of being a loving husband, or an obedient wife. Join Robbie as he struggles to transform from a directionless teen to Ruby, a successful young fashion designer, and from a clueless boy into a talented young lady. Do clothes make the man…, or the woman?
Return to a gentler time when boys were boys and girls were girls and never the twain were to meet. But also a time when any change from the norm was considered immoral if not illegal, when a boy in a dress was to be bullied if not despised. Today, we have the term transgender to cover anyone in the wide spectrum between all male and all female, preteens are encouraged to have an active sex life and taught that anything is acceptable, but life in Robbie’s time was far different. Red Ribbons is a testament to a time long gone, but also a tribute to the universal quest for love in a cruel world.
Set in the late fifties during the golden age of girdles, fast convertibles and cute carhops on skates, Red Ribbons weaves between the charm of a love story and the gripping drama of changing gender while growing up. Red Ribbons is appropriate for teens and above, and is a loving investigation into the intertwined phenomena we call gender and sex.

The story was engaging but it was difficult to believe that any teen could be so unwordly. It made it difficult to empathize with Ruby becauecI kept wanting to hit her upside the head and tell her to get real. That's often the difficulty with a period piece.A decent plot and character development made it a decent read for the genre.Product details

Red Ribbons A Transgender Romance Shades of Love Book 1 eBook Jillian Allen Reviews
I love the story, characters and the time period. It is a big book for this type of story but a perfect length. Never a dull moment. Great author and look forward to more from her. Highly recommended.
Jillian writes a complex and imaginative story filled with drama, family, romance, and love. This is a beautiful story, punctuated with some painful moments.
There are a few anachronisms and numerous spelling errors (pined should be pinned, caned should be canned...), but the plot and characters are so engaging that it's almost easy to overlook the editing issies.
When I think transgender I think of a person born one gender finding it more natural to present and live as another gender. This story is not that. This is the story of a young boy who is a boy and has no question about that, and his mother and aunt who long ago wanted the mother's youngest child to be born a girl and now that the opportunity has presented itself they are going to turn the boy into a girl.
This is a sad story. All the boy's problems as a child come from the lack of care from his family and the indifference of the adults around him. Only once he is forced to wear feminine clothes and act feminine, let alone begin unknowingly taking feminization hormones, does he start getting the love and affection from his mother he so desparately craves. It is only fear of losing this new love and sense of belonging that makes him choose not to fight back against this forcing even though he does not like it.
A wonderful book with a great ending...with closure...
This is one you will not voluntary put down, it is such a wonderful tale with all it's twists and turns and so many changes. It is just wonderful and I recommend that everyone read it. It has a happy ending.
