Reseña del libro "Mermaid in a Fishbowl: Seaside Teacher finds Danger and Romance Working in a Men's Desert Prison (en Inglés)"
Based on events of a true story, author Suzanne Ireland takes you behind razor wire walls to tell the dangerous and romantic story of a young teacher starting work in a men's prison. Fed up with teaching the over-privileged children of spoiled parents, Callie Winters accepts a different kind of job teaching literacy to men in prison. Packing up her beach things and two trained cats, she moves to the desert to start anew. It doesn't take her long to realize all her training isn't enough for working with this school of sharks. As Callie tries to navigate the system of new jargon and a million written rules, she encounters a surprising amount of invisible rules and secrets. Romance in prison is dangerous for staff wishing to keep their paid position. Over-familiarity is sternly warned against, yet female teachers routinely leave their jobs to marry students! Callie is appalled at the very idea. However, surrounded by a sea of men, she is amazed to find herself quickly attracted to more than one man. Feeling like an oddity from the ocean, without the usual freedoms and tools to teach with, Callie struggles to do her best job. Disgruntled bad boy students come to class with agendas that have nothing to do with the one written on the whiteboard each day. The former elementary school teacher is faced with assaults, lockdowns, gang rules, stabbings, illegal tattooing, a prison take-over, as well as several admirers. All of this is in addition to teaching students who gave up on their educations long ago. She does what she thinks is right, even if it means bending a rule or two. Callie will have to deal with a secret of her own being sold by inmates, as well as a paradigm shift from what she used to believe. Please enjoy reading this first book of the Razor Wire Romance series. *A Glossary of mostly prison terms is included in the book. *Be sure to read Chapter One of the sequel book which is located at the end of the book.
