Tawny Ratliff is a loose cannon. She's brash, unpredictable, and always ready to fight. She's also the best friend a person could hope for, keeps an eye on the people she loves, and takes her desire to do good to the next level. Brilliant and devious, Tawny takes you behind the scenes of "The Barter System," to a time when she and her best friend Riya were just kids trying to figure things out like everyone else. Her perspective is unusual, her language is uncouth, but she is never boring. Find out why this character in "The Barter System" and "Hudson" won the hearts of so many. Miss Tawny has no filter...and that's a good thing. Another great story from Always the Good Girl, Shayne McClendon.
