Tamara Angela Grant

You’ll never put this literary phenom in a box! We were first introduced to not only beauty but brains, with a story to tell, in Tamara Angela Grant, with her debut Promises Made, Promises Kept and now with the highly-anticipated, The Cooling Board. Tamara is intrigued by human nature and what makes people react to situations. A licensed social worker by day, Tamara witnesses human interaction in its most deep and pure form, often times seeing those who’ve hit rock bottom. Tamara’s writing provides an opportunity for discussion and for people to really talk about how things affect them. Clever wit, skillful dialogue, masterful plots, coupled with real-life circumstances regarding the truth about family and relationships, will engage readers and promote changes they want to make to themselves and in life in general.


Is it really a thin line between love and hate? When is it okay to return
home after so many years astray? Tamara Angela Grant pens an intriguing and
heartwarming tale of a family who loves each other despite the fact that
they may not always like each other. Enchanting and enlightening, The
Cooling Board is an entertaining and strikingly clever, witty, and honest look at the way a family copes with the devastating loss of a loved one.
Witness Jhonnie Bell Devereaux, who thought only one thing could drag her
back to her birthplace of Regal City, Louisiana. When she hears news of the
impending death of her mother, Jhonnie Bell rushes to her mother's side and
in the process, gets reacquainted with the small rural bayou life she
anxiously left behind years ago.
