UGLY FACES is an intense roller coaster ride that will leave you clinging to the edge of you seat…
Lexi Peters, a law student at Red Falls University, has a traumatic secret-a secret that has left her terrified of open spaces. When her best friend, Rachael, abandons her on winter break, a desperate and emotionally fragile Lexi must figure out how to make the 443-mile trip to her parents’ house on her own, or else risk her condition regressing.
Mustering the courage to make the drive is the least of Lexi’s troubles. Unbeknownst to her, she is heading straight into the eye of a storm. One of the worst on record. Lexi’s psyche starts to unravel when her past comes back to haunt her. Familiar faces in a rusted truck are stalking her, and they’re not the only ones. Through desolate canyons and flooded roads, Lexi will be pushed to the limits to manage her condition and escape from her shocking past. An intense, grueling game of life or death will leave her screaming in the middle of nowhere, fighting a mental breakdown.

“This book was captivating from the getgo. Any character that listens to punk rock I immediately connect with, so it was easy for me to gravitate towards rooting for the main character Lexi. I won’t add any spoilers in a review, but I will say I was caught off guard at a point.”
