Pretty Boy by K.M. Neuhold

Once upon a time, in a little Texas town in the middle of nowhere, there lived a boy who everyone called ugly…

Does he mean it when he says he wants to take me away from here? Nobody’s ever wanted me around for long. Can I believe Barrett when he says that’s what he wants?
Something about the word Daddy on my lips makes it all seem possible. Even if I don’t really believe anyone would want to keep an ugly boy like me forever…
