Hillari's Head (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781626521544)

Paralegal Kristina Orris has moved to San Diego seeking a new life - a normal life. She is burdened by the memory of Hillari, a sister with an oversized head and disfigured face. After Kristina's dad died, she knew she couldn't stay. Kristina dreamed of being a lawyer. Pursuing such a goal would be impossible yoked to Hillari. At 18, Kristina abandoned her home, her past - and Hillari. Now, eight years later, Kristina meets attorney Gideon "Duck" Ducker, "the single homeliest man she had ever laid eyes on." But she instantly bonds with him. Kristina takes a paralegal job at Ducker's law firm, where the two are thrown into the most fascinating case of their lives. Only one thing prevents Kristina from becoming the confident, fulfilled woman she longs to be: the swelling burden of guilt and shame over her past. But is it too late to redeem herself? Alternately touching, humorous and heart wrenching, Hillari's Head is about family, intimacy, resilience and, ultimately, acceptance.
