Public speaking phenom, Lexie, is on her
way to represent her school at the Speech state finals, with dreams of reaching
nationals. But that is before a freckle on her cheek turns out to be a rare
form of melanoma, skin cancer, that requires surgery. Now, with a large scar on
her face, her world changes and she no longer recognizes herself.
Her confidence has vanished, her
friendships are changing and the very thing she has always loved—public
speaking—now strikes terror into her heart. When a chance encounter turns into
an unexpected friendship, Lexie's feelings about her scar, and herself, are
challenged. Can she find a way to explore her ordeal with her ambitions for
winning the state Speech competition?
A relatable and easy read for teenagers and
young adults about overcoming obstacles, navigating friendships and finding out
that our worth is far more than just skin deep.
