Discovery Beauty Within
“I’m Desperada, not desperate!”
Or was she?
Oh how this Native American teen wanted to fit in, but fit into what? Can unpopular, overweight, shunned and introverted high school senior Desperada Rivers make her dream come true? Her dream of whipping herself into shape so she can latch onto unattainable heartthrob and handsome running back Blake Travis.
Life throws her a curve ball when she trips over a soggy sand castle on the sandy shores of Padre Island and is aided by gentle giant, Jedidiah Russell, a star player from a rival football team. He might be just the ticket to get Blake’s attention. This is one senior determined to bust out of her ugly cocoon and blossom into a beautiful butterfly, but at what cost?
Near summer’s end a life threatening encounter cause Deserada to find her wings. A blossoming fate causes her to question her former priorities. Are her new found truths strong enough for her to overcome mental chatter, judgement, jealousy, and peer pressure? Is she courageous enough to cause paradigm shifts in the football-cheerleading crowd?
Is it possible for Desperada to navigate her classmates away from the candy-coated social trappings? Her peers doubt it, do you?
