"She's a fashion model who has everything: a boyfriend, a career, a loyal best friend. But when a sudden freeway "accident" leaves her disfigured and incapable of speech, she goes from being the beautiful center 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 becoming 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 places you'll ever want to look."--BOOK JACKET.

"In this hilarious and daringly unpredictable novel 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.

Changing names and stories in every city, they catapult toward a final confrontation with a rifle-toting Evie - by which time we will have learned that loving and being loved are not mutually exclusive, and that nothing, on the surface, is ever quite what it seems."--BOOK JACKET.

Work Description

Shannon McFarland, splendida top model, dalla vita ha avuto tutto quello che si può desiderare: l'amore, la carriera, un'amicizia sincera. La sua esistenza viene però sconvolta quando, mentre sta guidando la sua auto, una misteriosa fucilata la raggiunge al volto, lasciandola orrendamente sfigurata e incapace di parlare. E da affascinante centro di attrazione Shannon si ritrova a essere un mostro invisibile, evitato da tutti, tradita dal fidanzato Manus e dall'amica del cuore, Evie. Ma tutto cambia quando in ospedale Shannon fa conoscenza con la Principessa Brandy Alexander, cui manca ancora solo un intervento chirurgico per diventare una vera donna. Brandy non solo la trascinerà in un viaggio delirante con il proposito di aiutarla a vendicarsi di Evie e di Manus, ma soprattutto le spiegherà come reinventare se stessa. E le insegnerà che niente e nessuno è mai quello che sembra a prima vista...
