Book excerpt: The shocking answer is exposed in this dramatic and critically acclaimed work by Kachelle Kelly as she takes the mask off the pretty face to deliver hope, help and healing to the unspoken hurt often hidden beneath a beautiful appearance. Straightforward in tone yet diverse in an approach to reach all women, Kachelle draws on the experiences of herself and countless other women to discuss key issues relating to self-esteem, femininity, relationships and spirituality. In addition, the reading is enhanced at the conclusion with dynamic questions and exercises to further speak life into the lives of women. Be empowered and encouraged as you read a literary work sure to leave lasting impressions in your mind long after the last page is turned and closed. For though the journey of such a woman is at times pretty painful, now is the perfect time to rediscover true beauty once again.
