Book description
She's a catwalk model who has everything: a boyfriend, a career, a
loyal best friend. But when a sudden motor 'accident' leaves her
disfigured and incapable of speech, she goes from being the beautiful
centre of attention to being an invisible monster, so hideous that no
one will acknowledge she exists.
Enter Brandy Alexander, Queen Supreme, one operation away from being
a real woman, who will teach her that reinventing yourself means
erasing your past and making up something better, and that salvation
hides in the last place you'll ever want to look.
The narrator must exact revenge upon Evie, her best friend and
fellow model; kidnap Manus, her two-timing ex-boyfriend; and hit the
road with Brandy in search of a brand-new past, present and future.
