From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff, comes a new standalone Contemporary Romance.
HE’S PERFECT FOR HER IN EVERY WAY, EXCEPT FOR ONE SMALL ISSUE. HE’S TOO LATE.
My name is Lily Snow. And I was once the kind of ugly that turned heads and made people stare. The worst part was how I let it ruin my life and destroy my relationship with the love of my life: Maxwell Cole, one of the sexiest, wealthiest, enigmatic men on the planet. All because I felt ugly and certainly not good enough for a man’s love. But not anymore. One car wreck, three reconstructive surgeries, and some unexpected money have changed my life. I’ve started my own company, I’ve finally learned to like myself—not love, but like (hey, it’s a journey)—and I’ve met a wonderful new man who’s helped me put Max in the past where he belongs. There’s only one problem: after six long months, Maxwell Cole is back, asking for the one thing I can’t give him. And he’s not taking no for an answer. NOTE: This is a continuation of the story FUGLY, but is a standalone.

Excerpt
No, no, no. What did he just fucking say? I stared at the ass-faced reporter blocking my way to the church. A sadistic smirk stretched across his lips while his crew filmed my reaction. They hoped I’d cry for the entire world on my wedding day, didn’t they? Maybe I would. “Tell us, Miss Snow, how does it feel?” He urged the cameraman closer and shoved the microphone an inch from my face. “How does it feel knowing your fiancé cheated on you last night?” The bastard cheated on me? The night before our wedding? I tried to blink away my tears, but his words felt like a red-hot poker through my collapsing heart. After everything that had happened, every tear shed, every moment of struggle, and the promises made, I couldn’t believe it had all led to this: emotional annihilation. What did you expect, Lily? Princes don’t fall for frogs. Not in real life. He wanted a beautiful life, a perfect life. He wanted a beautiful wife and beautiful babies. I couldn’t give him those things. I dropped my bouquet, smoothed down the front of my white dress, and lifted my chin. “It feels like shit.” I turned away from the church, ignoring the roar of the press and the clicking of cameras, leaving behind my last shred of belief in happy-ever-afters. Those don’t exist. They never did.
What is Lily to do? All her life, men never looked at her twice... sometimes not even once! She was born with a face that did not match the beauty of the rest of her body and her independent soul. Now that circumstances ended up in her needing plastic surgery, her life has changed dramatically.
Losing Max 6 months ago and knowing he would not forgive her, she does her best to put her life together again and move on. Now complications appear at every corner as she is debating whether to marry the hot Italian actor Patricio... and Max comes back for her with a serious proposal.
Just as in Fugly, there are lessons to be learned about having a strong conviction in yourself. Outer beauty does not last. It is your strength of character that will guide you through life. The ugly inner voice that robs you of your determination and self-esteem has to be quieted once and for all.
I enjoyed this series immensely. Our author's writing style is a delight to readers. Once again I found it very hard to put this book down.
