'As I look into my compact mirror hoping to see a familiar reflection, I am stunned when a stranger stares back at me. This is not the face I know so well. I am looking at the handiwork of a mountain lion; he ambushed me while I was biking in Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park on January 8th, 2004. My neck sustained almost forty deep bite wounds and my mangled face was pieced together using more than 200 stitches and staples.' - Anne Hjelle.

'Skin Deep' tells the incredible true story of one woman's battle survival following a vicious mountain lion attack and the daunting emotional and physical challenges she faced during her recovery.

In moving detail, Anne Hjelle's describes her transformation from a wounded victim to a survivor, a women who managed to come to terms with her new identity, and learned to live by the words 'feed your faith, not your fear'.

'Skin Deep' is an inspiring personal story of tragedy and renewal, a book about what is important in life and about the nature of beauty.

Welcome to KindleBoards, and congratulations on the book! :)

This is just a friendly reminder that KindleBoards is a Readers and Kindle Fan forum. Authors are always welcome to post anywhere but, as you browse the 'boards, please keep in mind that self-promotion, of any sort, is ONLY allowed here in the Book Bazaar.

A brief recap of our rules follows: (Note that this doesn't mean you've done anything wrong; we just want you to have a ready reference, so post this note in every thread. :) )

--Please bookmark this thread (using your browser's bookmark/favorite function) so you can update it as we ask that authors have only one thread per book and add to it when there is more information.

--While you may respond to member posts to your thread at any time, you may only bump your thread (back-to-back posts by you) once every seven days. Once you've responded to a member, that resets the clock to zero and you must wait seven days to post, unless another member posts before then.

--We ask that Amazon reviews not be repeated here as they are easy to find at your book link. Also, full reviews from other sites should not be posted here, but you may post a short blurb and a link to the full review instead.
