She was just named a finalist in the national portrait competition of her dreams. But when she winds up with a rare, but real, condition where human faces look like jumbled puzzle pieces\u003ci\u003e . . . \u003c\/i\u003eit is, to say the least, \u003ci\u003enot good\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith only a few weeks to paint the best portrait of her entire life, Sadie will do anything to reverse her condition and get back to work, but it's anyone's guess when (or even if) that'll happen. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEnter her dog's charming veterinarian (who may or may not be Sadie's daydream fiancé), and her bowling-jacket-wearing, Vespa-riding neighbor (who she can't seem to stay away from)--both vying for her attention and adding to the chaos. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt's a lot, but that doesn't mean it's bad. Because the truth is, seeing the world differently has its upsides. And love has an undeniable way of giving us courage. And the best way of looking is always, always with the heart. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"With its emphasis on its central character, combined with its \"swoony\" romance, \"Hello Stranger\" is a hit. Sadie is everything you could want in a protagonist -- the right amount of quirky, sunshiney and stubborn, and the men she's in love with are equally fascinating. All the side characters provide humor and comfort, and even those characters who you aren't \u003ci\u003ereally\u003c\/i\u003e supposed to like are annoyingly intriguing and captivating. Center created a brilliant cast of characters, set to a plot that's sure to keep you reading.\" --\u003ci\u003eMichigan Daily\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Katherine Center","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52103127204141,"sku":"BS-8XD-336156","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/9781250336156-HD.jpg?v=1780256637","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/hello-stranger","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
