Scar

By Margo

“You would be pretty if you didn’t have that . . . You just have to take what you can get since you got strikes against you!”

Tineya has experienced a lot of trauma in her short life. Losing both parents has left a broken, weak soul. As if that’s not enough she’s left with physical wounds that no woman should have to deal with. More than just bad memories, Tineya’s wound runs deeper.

What would you do if everybody could see the remnants of one unforgettable night that changed your life? Follow Tineya as she hunts for acceptance from others, but most of all, from herself. Some people are rooting for her to succeed, while a few selfishly want her to stay in a sunken place.
In walks Marsell, a self-centered hustler. He’s the type of slick-talking man who can sell water to a fish and dope to the Pope. Marsell can convince any woman to jump as high as he needs her to. He typically wants the type of woman who looks like a centerfold, damn near perfect, until he is humbled.

What happens when Marsell and Tineya cross paths? Will Tineya stay meek and weak, or will she finally learn that those with the deepest wounds are usually the strongest soldiers?
