Queen of a Kind: Year One - Let the Reign Begin by Sheila Michelle

The Beaumont Queen shoe fits no other than Grace Elizabeth Garrett, and she’s been confirmed to the world as Beaumont High School’s 20th Queen. Her fairy tale, four-year journey begins as the world’s one-of-a-kind high school queen on her first day of school her freshman year, but she will soon find out that it’s anything but a fairy tale.

Grace sees just how real being Beaumont’s 20th Queen is when she attends her first day of school, and is instantly the most popular high-school freshman girl in the world. Knowing that no other girl in the world is a one-of-a-kind high school queen like her, she tries hard to act like a typical teen, but it’s harder to do than she thinks it is when she has to deal with more haters than she ever thought she would have to deal with. It’s also hard for her to control her crush-at-first-sight on fellow freshman Ace Williamson — and the feeling is very mutual — but there’s a problem. Since Grace is Beaumont Queen, she is under a strict contract where she is not allowed to date, and she knew this when she signed the contract when she became Beaumont Queen. Never did she think she would crush this hard on a boy so fast, and she also never thought that she would have a potential stalker on her hands as well who happens to be a senior by the name of Nick Tate, and Nick has a past with Grace’s predecessor, Beaumont’s 19th Queen Victoria Chandler — and it isn’t a good one, so this now has Grace fearing for her whole first year as Beaumont Queen that she could be Nick’s next target, and this isn’t all.
