In the novel Beautiful by Kiexiza Rodriquez readers will definitely be entertained with the author’s innovative ability to take you in the life of main character Tierra Rodriguez.

Tierra is an attractive young woman who is focused and driven about her career and is en route to the pursuit of happiness, she then meets Malcolm a handsome man who is used to getting what he wants and isn’t going to let Tierra slip away.

Enter Tierra’s best friend Qu into the equation, whom she truly loves but comes to a point where she has to choose. Beautiful, tells a story of so many issues and there are many emotions that the author has creatively conveyed through out the book.

Tierra is indeed a... More > realistic character from her highs and lows and her even darker moments as she thinks she can drink away the pain only to realize that the pain is still there, finally as a semi last resort she finds herself coming to a crucial turning point in her life. Where she can no longer run and has to confront all of her demons head on.

Beautiful was a delight to read and despite minor editing issues the book can still be enjoyed and serve as an inspiration that you can overcome obstacles/tragedies as long as you continue to push forward.

Kudos to Kiexiza Rodriguez! < Less

"I really enjoyed this Novel "Beautiful" by Kiexiza Tashua Rodriquez, for me I believe that Tierra (Ti) was a woman that had dealt with so much pain from her past.

That she really became numb to any kind of relationship other than her family and close childhood friends and then she was very careful of what she shared with them, the fear of not wanting them to pass judgement on her.

This was a love/romance story of a hardworking woman that had been suffering in silence for so long, that when she decides to allow herself to feel something for a guy she knew deep in her gut it was just all wrong.

Tierra then is faced to... More > deal with the issues of being sexually assaulted, and having trust issues to even complicate things. She finds herself confused on the edge of losing the little sanity that she still has and finds herself on the couch with a therapist.

She had even given up on God, because to her in her eyes God had given up on her by allowing the horrible things in her life happen. There's Qu the boy next door the one person she trusted with her life, he had been her protector all their childhood.

Whenever you saw Tierra (Ti) you saw Qu. Deep inside Tierra's torn heart she knew that her bestfriend Qu had feelings for her, but she was running from the truth, that she had strong feelings for him, but was afraid.

They shared almost everything, until somethings are revealed in the heat of rage. This novel "Beautiful" was by far a page turner, I had to keep changing positions as I curled up with novel. One things is for sure "Beautiful" will make you laugh, cry, and you wonder about the power of prayer, and faith in God and even have you to re-think what kind of relationship you have with God in the time of need and even make your heart skip a few beats just thinking about what will happen next.

I again enjoyed every single page, and the characters will keep you guessing as to what will they do. I'm looking forward to and is so anxious and to ready to read the sequel. I'm going to have to give Kiexiza Rodriquez 5 stars!

I highly recommend this book

"A real page turner ********************************" Mis Tiger's first novel reads like she has been writing for years...her descriptions tell the story and make you feel like you're living in the book! I took this book to the park and couldnt put it down!

1/2way done and I can't wait to see what will come of Ti and Qu. Great job!

"AAMBC REVIEW OF BEAUTIFUL"
AAMBC REVIEW OF MY NOVEL BEAUTIFUL

The story of Tierra "Ti" Rodriquez is a phenomenal love story focused
on a woman torn between love for her best friend and finding her way
back to God. The author Kiexiza Rodriquez brilliantly wrote and created
a life within Tierra allowing readers to vision a life willing to find
true love. When Tierra is hit with many stumbling blocks from rape, to
loneliness, fear of commitment, and the search for a strong faith she
finds herself running from reality. All along her best friend Qu, who
has been her friend for her entire life, is secretly in love with her.
In this... More > novel "Beautiful" you will laugh, cry, praise, and most of all
fall in love with these characters. This story was a page turner,
grabbing my attention one sentence at a time. The ending was just as I
had hoped. I can not wait for the sequel I give Kiexiza Rodriquez four
stars. This is a must read, that you and your family should get.
