Emily is going through it: her writing career is stalling a bit and her mom is desperate to get her married. To get her off her back, she decides to fake date Mark. He’s who her mom has been trying to set her up with, but Emily isn’t interested in something real….at first.

It was cute reading as Emily started to fall for Mark for real. And I liked when we got to the chapters with his POV. The addition of his cute cat was a fun bit as well.

Thanks as always to NetGalley for the ARC.

Love, Lies, and Cherry Pie by Jackie Lau. I received an ARC from NetGalley to read and give an honest review.

As usual, I find romcom's by Jackie to be well worth the read. Love, Lies, and Cherry Pie was no exception. One thing I found, was that I recognized several things the characters mention, most especially, the specific chocolate donuts...(Ms. Lau has posted pics of it on Twitter...)

Mamma seems to be very interfering...until later in the book when you learn just WHY she was pushing Mark Chan toward her daughter.

The book has some great moments, lots of food, and definitely family looking out for family.

Sometimes...Mother does know best!
