Summary

In this funny and inspiring novel from the authors of The Better Half, a mess of a heroine is desperate to resolve her past so she can finally rediscover who she was always meant to be.

Antonia “Toni” Arroyo’s protective mother has outdated notions for her daughter’s life: employ her natural beauty and marry young. But Toni has wholly different aspirations.

A promising inventor and budding entrepreneur, she fights to keep her passions alive as a financially strapped mother of twins with a job in airport transportation services that has her going in circles. One treasured frequent passenger is elderly traveler Sylvia Eisenberg, Toni’s sage but unofficial adviser and cheerleader. When Toni meets Sylvia’s grandson, Ash, a striking venture capitalist, luck just might bend her way.

With a game-changing new business endeavor in development, Toni hustles an opportunity to pitch her idea on TV’s Innovation Nation. Toni’s unexpected challenger? Her very own recently resurfaced, self-aggrandizing not-quite-ex-husband. As Toni’s interrupted past collides with her tenuous future, she is more determined than ever to follow through on her delayed dreams. Toni’s been clinging to “maybe” for so long—it’s finally time for “absolutely.”

Critic reviews

“Bahni Turpin delivers this story of feminist entrepreneurship and second chance love with the humor and hilarity it deserves.… Turpin captures Toni's spunkiness as she balances motherhood and a demanding job with her aspirations for entrepreneurship. Turpin deftly portrays Toni's loving, if chaotic, world, which includes characters ranging from Sylvia, a warm and engaging customer, to Ash, Sylvia's grandson, who is skillfully presented as a potential love interest.… Her ability to bring out the nuances of each character enhances this listening experience.” AudioFile Magazine

“Frank and Youmans paint a diverse cast with ease and don’t shy away from calling out harmful stereotypes. Toni and her delightful support network are positive even during difficult times. Perfect for readers who like thoughtful yet witty books.” Booklist

“Original, memorable, deftly crafted, and a fun read from start to finish… Immediately engaging and thoroughly entertaining throughout, Boss Lady is especially and unreservedly recommended…” Midwest Book Review
