About this eBook
If fate suddenly made you more beautiful that you ever dreamed possible, would it be the beginning of a fairy tale, or your worst nightmare?
The brutal attack should have killed anybody, but Nell Calder did more than survive. She emerged a woman transformed, with an exquisite beauty found only in fairy tales. Nell Calder deserved a happy ending. Instead, her descent into terror has just begun.
Her attacker is still on the hunt, determined to finish what he's started. And Nell, protected by a new face, is just as determined to fight back and take her revenge. But to catch her prey, she will have to expose herself—even if it makes her a killer's prime target.

Iris Johansen book, recommended to me from a friend. I could not put it down! From the first chapter it sucks you in. Heartache, anger, revenge, and even a few love stories make this a must read. I can't wait to read all of her books.

Great reading... I was getting very frustrated with romance novels where it's mostly sex and will eventually fall in love. I really liked this story.
