Amazing debut! Hilarious & steamy RomCom that also touches on racism Native Americans experience. I may or may not have signed up for Aardvark Book Club so I could have a hardcover copy.
What to expect:
- Workplace RomCom
- Forbidden love
- BIPOC FMC/MMC
- Slow burn
- Steamy 🌶️🌶️🌶️
- Only one bed
- HEA 💖
