A modern-day Bridget Jones's Diary, this entertaining, warm, and humorous debut novel from award-winning writer Breanne Mc Ivor follows a young Trinidadian woman finding her voice and a new kind of happy ending. Who decides what-or whom-can be called beautiful?
Bianca Bridge is like an eyeshadow palette. She's a vibrant kaleidoscope of big personality and even bigger dreams, with a tendency towards messiness and fallout. Case in point: losing her job and compromising her reputation by having an affair with a married government official.
Her fiercely confident and tyrannical new boss Obadiah Cortland-a legend in Trinidad's beauty scene-is like a statement red lipstick. Dubbed the God of Good Looks, Obadiah has perfected his hot-shot façade through years of slipping through the island's rigid class barriers. He knows as well as Bianca that the tiniest smudge can ruin your image.
When Bianca's ex threatens both their futures, they must find a way to work together to save everything they care about. But as they put their differences aside, will they find they actually bring out the best in each other?
Sharp-witted and fiercely fun, The God of Good Looks is a lively, open-hearted, awakening tale about prejudice and pride, the masks we wear, and what we can become if we dare to take them off.
