The Truth According to Ember

"Job hunting is hard, but Ember Lee Cardinal finds it even more difficult as an Indigenous Chickasaw woman. When she decides to tell a half-truth on an application and pass as white, she gets the job. Even if work isn’t the best, the very attractive guy from IT, Danuwoa, makes things easier. This book is more than just a workplace romance; it’s a searing look at all the ways women of color – particularly Indigenous women – must navigate structural injustice and oppression. The sizzling chemistry between Ember and Danuwoa doesn’t hurt either. All in all, a heartwarming and laugh-out-loud read."
