About Hello, My Beautiful

Bored and struggling at work with her abusive boss, Dean Newberry, Mariana Richland created a page for her real-life role model and his inspirational art. Nathaniel Kilpatrick embodies the father she always wished for but never had. Mariana published it for pure enjoyment, a way to honor the artist icon and to test her web design skills. She couldn't have imagined from that day forward all her hard work would reward her with an opportunity of a lifetime. Nor could she have imagined the pure hell it would put her through. With success on the horizon, her boss, Dean Newberry, becomes increasingly hostile and abusive. Kidnapped, tortured, and stalked; will Mariana escape Dean's aggressive behavior? Will Dean get his long-held need for revenge? Or will fear paralyze Mariana? Nathaniel Kilpatrick wouldn't really know the extent of the page's creator and the young woman's humanity until meeting her face to face. Nathaniel learns something very important about her which would not only bring a special meaning to his life but inspire him to do something only a loving father and kindhearted human would ever think to do. Challenging humanity, inspiring love, and defining fatherhood. Follow Nathaniel and Mariana as they form a father/daughter bond, sprouting forth the inner warrior within Mariana to fight the abuse and rough times. While Mariana questions her self-worth and Nathaniel comes to see her beauty within, they both come to an understanding of something much deeper, even though their lives are different. Can love overcome fear? Can love wipe away the paralyzing fear Mariana feels? Will they try Dean for his crimes? Will justice prevail? CONTENT WARNING: Material contains abuse, kidnapping, torture, and stalkish behavior.
