Skin Deep

by Gen Ryan

Attracted to a woman he shouldn’t be, all because of the color of her skin, Sheriff Christopher Weatherby is conflicted, unsure of what to do with the passion that is building inside him. It is his job to help Lillian Pearl Porter solve her parents murder, but as the truth starts unraveling, it seems secrets are around every corner, all involving the woman he finds himself drawn to. When Lilly returns to her parents’ hometown after their deaths, she is met with the racism, discrimination and secrets that surround the small town of Kittrell, North Carolina. Determination flows through Lilly as she ventures on, fighting against the walls of segregation. She finds herself falling for a man who is forbidden. A love so strong that it pushes against the laws. Will Lilly and Christopher be able to control their love or will their attraction end, just like Lilly’s parents—in death?

Good

I was worried how this story would work, racially charged books sometime are hard to maneuver. This was a wonderful story with tragedy, love and a little bit of suspense. My first time reading this author, but well done.
