Feral Beauty

Bullied and blackballed, eighteen-year-old Stephanie Zeller is trapped in a life of misery in the unforgiving world of Houston, Texas. She dreams of love, popularity, and belonging-but feels invisible, ugly, nerdy, and boring. Who could ever love a girl like her? If only Stephanie were beautiful, everything would change. Boys would desire her, girls would fight for her friendship, and she'd finally have a life worth living. But that's just a dream-one far beyond her reach. On a lonely Friday night, desperate for someone to see her inner beauty, Stephanie meets a mysterious man named Adrian who invites her to a party that promises to change everything. Stephanie's deepest desire is within reach-transformation, beauty, love-but it comes at a price so devastating she may never recover. Part Carrie and part The Hellbound Heart, Feral Beauty is a haunting coming-of-age horror tale where dreams and nightmares collide and the price of beauty is far more terrifying than you could ever imagine.
