À propos de cet audio
A smart and delightful romantic comedy featuring fabulous female friendships and "a great love story" (Jasmine Guillory, best-selling author of Party of Two).
Samiah Brooks never thought she would be "that" girl. But a live tweet of a horrific date just revealed the painful truth: She's been catfished by a three-timing jerk of a boyfriend. Suddenly, Samiah - along with his two other "girlfriends", London and Taylor - have gone viral online. Now, the three new besties are making a pact to spend the next six months investing in themselves. No men and no dating. For once, Samiah is putting herself first, and that includes finally developing the app she's always dreamed of creating. Which is the exact moment she meets the deliciously sexy Daniel Collins at work. What are the chances? But is Daniel really boyfriend material, or is he maybe just a little too good to be true?
"A smart, funny digital-age romance about real women living in the real world. Couldn't put it down!" (Abby Jimenez, USA Today best-selling author of The Happy Ever After Playlist)

This read like a self righteous textbook.
This book could have been half as long as the author only repeated herself once.
I was really excited to get into this book, and I was really excited at the killer opening. It was funny and interesting. I really loved the diversity between the three women we meet right off the bat. One is in STEM, one is a personal trainer, and the other is a doctor. They're all treated poorly by the same dude, and instead of getting angry at each other, they all get angry at him, and become besties. I love this.
This is where the things I loved ended. There was no chemistry between the male and female love interests, I felt that the sex scene was boring, and the only reason I finished it is because I'm going to talk about it on a YouTube video.
Parts of this book were important. I did like the discussion on the challenges of being a black woman, and especially a black women in STEM. I felt it very understandable and relatable to hear the main character talk about how she had to be perfect because she was the representative for all black women in STEM who would come after her. I have often worked in male-dominated spaces and have felt this way too.
But at the end of the day this is a romance novel on the romance sucked. The internal monologues were so long, and the decision-making and rationale of some of the characters was questionable.
