One of a Kind by A.N. Boyden


Description:

Tatyana Lee has been offered the arduous task of becoming Bluebonnet's new principal by her long-term mentor and current school board superintendent. The town's testing scores are dismal. In fact, Bluebonnet is ranked the worst in the state of Texas. Tatyana's immediate response was to turn down the position; however, her success could place her as the front runner to be the youngest school superintendent in Texas history.

Tatyana accepts the challenge and has one year to drastically improve the school's testing scores and overall academic marks to avoid shutting down the public school. Tatyana is not thrilled to leave the comforts of the big city for the little Podunk town with a population of less than one thousand and prays the rumors she has heard are not true.

Keith Bailey is the well-loved and admired sheriff of Bluebonnet. His family established the town of Bluebonnet over one hundred years ago and has always been the governing law of the dilapidated city. The citizens of Bluebonnet, including Keith's family, turn their backs on him as soon as Tatyana Lee brazenly rolls into town with her No Trespassing signs and her double pistols on her hips.

Keith is instantly attracted to the dark-skinned woman with the sultry tongue and ego the size of Texas. He is befuddled by the woman's insistence in staying in a town where she truly did not belong and finds himself spending more time protecting Tatyana from the less-than-welcoming town folk and cleaning up after their vandalism.

How will Tatyana achieve her goals and deal with being the only Black resident in a predominantly racist town? Join Tatyana and Sheriff Bailey as the pair engage in the spiciest love affair that Bluebonnet has ever witnessed.

 



    I tend to not read books like this but this author's work has had me in a chokehold these past couple of days that I knew I needed to give it try. There are some very derogatory language and slurs as well as some very triggering action in this book. With that being said the author created a world that was very realistic and entertaining. I really enjoyed Tatyana and Sheriff Bailey's relationship. Tatyana was true to herself and stood her ground. While Sheriff Bailey was just over protective (understandable) and supportive. It was really a good read.


And always Happy Reading!
