B As In Beauty Paperback - 2009

by Alberto Ferreras

For Beauty Marie Zavala, the only thing she resents more than her name is the way others judge her extra weight. B's new tax accountant, a modern-day matchmaker, is determined to boost B's flagging self-esteem. But will B fall for the one guy she shouldn't?


From the publisher

Everyone in the world, it seems, is either prettier or thinner (or both) than Beauty Marie Zavala. And the only thing "B" resents more than her name is the way others judge her for the extra 40 pounds she can't lose. At least she has her career. Or did, until she overhears her boss criticizing her weight and devising a scheme to keep her from being promoted. Enter B's new tax accountant, a modern-day matchmaker determined to boost B's flagging self-esteem by introducing her to rich, successful men who will accept her for who she is. As B's confidence blossoms, so do her fantasies of revenge. But will B find true happiness or true disaster when she unwittingly falls for the one guy she shouldn't?
