This is one of my new favorite romcoms! Thank you @berkleypub for the free book!

๐Ÿ“Œ A little spice in your romcom ๐Ÿ”ฅ
๐Ÿ“Œ Native American representation ๐Ÿ‘

Ember Lee Cardinal isnโ€™t afraid to tell a little white lie. So when  job application after job application is denied, she stretches a few truths about her schooling and checks white instead of Native American on her latest application, she quickly receives an offer. Ember then has to keep on top of the lies sheโ€™s told so she can stay friendsโ€”or more ๐Ÿ‘€ โ€”with the hot IT guy at her new accounting job.

This book is one of my top 5 romance novels Iโ€™ve read all year! I found myself smiling at the banter and Emberโ€™s internal dialogue. It was light and funny without doing too much to grab my attention. The build up in this romance was so easily believable and nearly effortless that the chemistry was tangible. 

I would love to see more romcoms with Native American MCs! This author ROCKED this story, I didnโ€™t want it to end but now that is has do yourself a solid and READ THIS STORY! Youโ€™ll fall for Ember and Danuwoa and this bittersweet tale of love, lies, and dreams.
