Read My Lips — Angela Patrick Wynn

If you persist, you will win… When Heavy-weight boxing champion, Stacey “The Red Bull” Walker is sentenced to community service at an all-male charter school, it doesn't improve his temper. The nerdy kids don't eat right or exercise plus they make him nervous. What if they find out he can't read?

No-nonsense principal, Millicent Houston swears no more favors as she reprimands the arrogant athlete who has opinions about her leadership when she's doing him a favor. Even though her students are ultra-excited about a boxing class, it's on the low list of priorities because her school's charter is at stake.

A bitter sweet story about humility and learning unfolds as Millicent discovers standing tall in your own shoes is more rewarding than filling someone else's and Stacey embraces education as more important than the heavyweight title.
