    Lexi has always been stunning. Her butter-colored hair and perfect features have helped her attract friends, a boyfriend, and the attention of a modeling scout. But everything changes the night Lexi's face goes through a windshield. Now she's not sure what's worse: the scars she'll have to live with forever, or what she saw going on between her best friend and her boyfriend right before the accident. With the help of her trombone-playing, defiantly uncool older sister and a guy at school recovering from his own recent trauma, Lexi learns she's much more than just a pretty face.

    Hi! I’m Natasha. I became a writer in great thanks to my parents, who raised me in a house without a TV. At the time, I thought this was the worst form of torture. Now I understand the method to their madness: they wanted me to be a reader. I spent much of my childhood in the Hamilton Public Library in upstate New York, where I found my mecca, the young-adult section, and my idol, Judy Blume. Not long after discovering Are You There God, It’s Me Margaret, I began dictating stories to my father, who typed them up on his 1930’s Remington typewriter. Most involved rainbows, unicorns, and poor orphan girls discovering treasure. I knew I was supposed to be a real writer in seventh grade, when a sweet boy wrote me a love poem and I felt compelled to correct it for syntax and rhyme scheme. (No, I did not grade it, and I did not hand it back to him. I kept it, and I treasure it still.) Because my spiritual age is 13, I was a middle-school teacher for a while. Then I was a camp director. I decided to give full-time writing a shot after I got married because I knew I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom. My first book, Perfect, was published right after my first baby arrived. I wrote a second book. I had another baby. Wrote two more books, had another baby. Now, three kids and seven books later, I feel like I’m just hitting my stride. I love being a writing mom. When I’m not working on my latest book, I’m building forts and making chocolate-chip pancakes. Often, I am wearing a silly hat. Sometimes a press-on mustache. I sing a lot. I read voraciously. I eat peanut butter and banana sandwiches for breakfast. I like a clean house, but I am a horrible housekeeper. I would rather be having a spontaneous talent show in my dirty kitchen. Or writing another book. xo, NF
