Hello, My Beautiful

A steady job she loves soon becomes routine. Mariana struggles to find an enthusiasm that once gave her meaning, so she turns to create a website for her favorite real-life role model, an inspiration to Hollywood and the art world, Nathaniel Kilpatrick. Little does she know her life is about to change when Mr. Kilpatrick stumbles upon this artistic devotion to him. All her hard work is about to reward her with an opportunity of a lifetime. Soon, this unexpected chance will unleash a pure hell of retaliation that will put her through a test.

Mariana's boss, Dean Newberry, gets wind of this venture and becomes hostile and abusive towards her. He kidnaps, tortures, and stalks her. Can Mariana escape his aggressive behavior, his need for revenge he has long withheld inside him? Will Mariana's fear paralyze into inaction?

Until Nathaniel meets with the page's creator, he'll never know the extent of her humanity. Soon, he learns something important about the special young lady bringing meaning to his life. She inspires him to do something only a loving father and a kindhearted human would ever think to do. Will Nathaniel rise to the challenge to his humanity? Will he step up and share his fatherly love with an abused woman?

Will Mariana find love and overcome her fear? Will it wipe away the paralyzing fear she feels when around men? Will the justice system prevail and bring Dean to trial for his crimes?

Come along on a journey as Mariana discovers an inner warrior at work to give her the courage to fight the abuse and battle the rough times as she questions her self-worth.
