Hi Miss Miralee! As you know, I have read your new book and you know my story. Beth's insecurities and the reasons for them really hit home with me. I have struggled with insecurities all my life due to being born with a neuromuscular disorder. Even though a person might treat me "normal" I still felt as if I just wasn't up to par and still do at times. I completely understood the way Beth tried to keep her deformity hidden. I surely would have done the same thing if at all possible. This is the second book in this series and both touch a deep part of me. I love that you tackle "real-life" issues in your books and you do it so well. You are a great writer and I am proud to know you.
