In My Skin

When twenty-three-year-old Sophie Lee was booked to perform at a huge event in Chicago, she thought it was a dream come true. Little did Sophie know it was about to become her nightmare. Sophie had been dancing since she was three and fire breathing for five years and so when the too-strong air-conditioning unit blasted fire back at her, she had no frame of reference for what would happen next; her face and chest went up in flames and her image was forever changed. This book tells the story of one woman's courage in rising from the ashes as she learns to discover that true beauty is more than skin deep in a society that so often tells us otherwise. Touching on topics like vulnerability, expectation, disappointment, and comparison, In My Skin will encourage others that they can face the impossible and rebuild themselves better than they ever thought possible.
