So when Obadiah offers the job to the headstrong Miss Bridge, she reluctantly accepts. But as Bianca discovers the art behind the make-up artistry and the cracks begin to show in Obadiah's carefully crafted façade, she realises she may have been wrong in her ideas about beauty. Could she be wrong about him too?Sparkling, big-hearted and life-affirming, The God of Good Looks is a story about prejudice and pride, the masks we wear and the power of second chances.
