About BEAUTIFUL BOY
One introverted girl.
One extroverted guy.
One assignment.
One afternoon.
Then everything changed…
“You destroyed me.”
Novah wanted nothing more than to walk away, never see him again. She was determined to pick up the pieces of her tarnished reputation and move on. Her torture became her muse, earning her well-deserved notoriety for capturing beauty with her lens. She had come full circle. She had it all…until he returned.
Nolan found himself surrounded by the grim facets of life, no longer the prominent boy from an affluent family who’d caught Novah’s eye. The years had been unkind and left him in the dark, painful trenches of life. He needed her help.
Fifteen years can equate to a lifetime of change, neither one the same person they once were. Despite the humiliation, the latent wounds, the missing years…they’re destined to heal one another in unexpected ways.
“You saved me.”

Excerpt
“Show me your scars… and I’ll show you
mine.”
The muscle in my forehead grew taut, and
even without a mirror, I knew how harsh my expression must’ve been to her. It
became evident in every inch of my face, from my pursed lips to my tense jaw,
even the space between my eyebrows ached with tension.
“Just because I don’t wear them on my skin
doesn’t mean I don’t have them, Nolan. Everyone has scars. Everyone has dealt
with some varying degree of pain. We’ve all been hurt one way or another.”
“And what will seeing your scars do for
me?”
She shrugged with her fingers holding onto
my shirt, unmoving, simply waiting. “Hopefully make you understand you’re not
alone. Maybe help connect us in some way. Bring us closer, and allow us to open
up to each other in a way we’ve never been able to with anyone else.”
“How could we possibly understand each
other’s pain?” My voice rumbled heavily as the words escaped me. The oxygen
grew thick around us and made it difficult to hold onto my bearings.
Her gaze fell to her fingers once they
began to resume their task— pulling my shirt from the waistband of my pants
before unhooking the very last button. Then she ran her palms up my chest. Heat
spread over me like the sun peeking through the clouds. It left me lost in her
touch. Her hands moved to my shoulders, beneath my work shirt, and then
torturously down my arms. She pushed my shirt off my body with an unhurried
ease.
My white undershirt remained, covering my
chest and hiding the unsavory reminders of war. She stood in front of me,
staring at my torso like it was a blank canvas, waiting for it to reveal
something to her. Gentle fingers caressed the fabric at my sides, leaving
behind trails of deep shivers like paths of singed nerves that sparked and
sizzled long after her touch had moved on.
Her scrutiny proved to be too much to
handle, and without thought, I roughly grabbed the hem of her T-shirt, yanked
it over her head, and left her in nothing but a plain black bra. Wide, cerulean
eyes met mine, and a soft, airy gasp resounded around us.

About Leddy Harper
Leddy Harper had to use her imagination often as a child. She grew up the only girl in a house full of boys. At the age of fourteen, she decided to use that imagination and wrote her first book, and never stopped.
She often calls writing her therapy, using it as a way to deal with issues through the eyes of her characters.
She is now a mother of three girls, leaving her husband as the only man in a house full of females.
The decision to publish her first book was made as a way of showing her children to go after whatever it is they want to. Love what you do and do it well. Most importantly Leddy wanted to teach them what it means to overcome their fears.
