The Truth According to Ember

I am not sure how we made it to 2024 without ever having a contemporary romance starring a Native American but also written by a Native American. I truly hope that this opens up to other Native American authors to get published because we need more.
This was such a cute romance that I found myself laughing quite a bit at Ember's antics. I do not understand how she could get away with what she got away with for so long! When she first met Danuwoa he was onto her from the very beginning but he never really pushed her or questioned her. I know some reader friends said they had such anxiety of the juvenile actions Ember's were doing which understand how it could be hard to read but it did not bother me. I think because as a reader you know everything will eventually come to light and it all did spill out.
I did feel like like the romance came out of left field. I truly loved Danuwoa's character and loved the relationship he had with Ember but there was no flirtatious build up. It was just like oh I like you, let's kiss and then it happened. He was such a good guy and sometimes I thought that he was too good for Ember but at the same time they just worked so well together. Also the time they were in the supply closet WHEWWW.
I also really enjoyed any time the side characters were featured. I loved Ember's best friend/roommate Johanna. I thought she was hysterical. I also loved Danuwoa's sister as well as the time they were at the bowling alley.
I paired my reading with the audio and I thought Siena East did a fabulous job! I am happy that they were able to have a Native American be the narrator. I thought Siena made the listening easy and enjoyable. And I think other romance readers would enjoy listening as well.
I am looking forward to reading more from Danica in the future!
Check this book out if you are looking for a mildly spicy workplace romance filled with off the wall moments!
