Have you ever been called ugly?
Well Elizabeth Jones has heard that word more than you know.
But that has yet to stop her.
Elizabeth has a dream shared by many. She wants to be famous. She's been told she has the guts to be in the business before. Not only that, she has the talent. But there's one thing stopping her from getting in to the club.
Her face.
It's such a big problem that she joins the army to gain respect. Maybe then, she could do it. She has the talent. She has the mind. She can overcome anything that comes her way.
But the world doesn't like change. The world doesn't like differences.
And that's exactly what Elizabeth is.

"Because I am the perfect housewife?" I asked arching an eyebrow. "No, because you are the perfect combination of smart, beautiful, and skillful." I blushed at that and I wanted to look away but one of his hands stopped me and turned my face towards him. "Get used to hearing compliments because you're going to hear them often in the future.
