Instagram is fun, but I don't think I'd enjoy it if it were my job. Especially if I had to promote products I didn't believe in. But that's the reality -- or perhaps I should say unreality -- for influencer Cat-never-Catherine-Cranwell in Melissa Ferguson's Famous for a Living. And it ends up being a scandal with just such a bogus brand that ejects her from The Montana, her posh Manhattan apartment, to a tiny cabin in Montana the state. Cat's beloved park ranger uncle has offered her a post as a social media maven. All she has to do is raise the profile of an unpopular national park amid snakes, grizzlies, and a cast of kooky coworkers while riding out her notoriety. And the toughest nut to crack proves to be brooding and brutally handsome Zaiah, a man who abhors social media.
You see where this is going, right?
I always enjoy a fish out of water story, especially when the fish in question is as un-outdoorsy as I am. That's something I can relate to, even if I can't identify with said fish's willingness to wax poetic about itchy jumpsuits. Also, I like that Cat learns and grows while holding on to what makes her her. My only note is that I wish there was more about her and Zaiah. Then again, maybe this is meant to be an albeit-light-hearted, I-am-woman-hear-me-roar-in-the-woods monologue as opposed to a romcom duet.
And now to post this (honest and unbiased) review on -- where else? -- Instagram. 😏

Oh, I really love the cover. Definitely a modern romance! I will note it. Great to see your review! 🧁💛🌈💙🩷❤️Thanks for your comments. Oh, that KC, perhaps this is his wake-up call. And maybe one for Rafe as well. Yes, and Em is blessed. However, I wanted to focus on her friends and Yuki and how they change during this new arrival, too. ❤️❤️❤️🌈🌈🌈🌈💛💛💛💛🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁 We are having much warmer days now. Even Hot. Which means all sorts of troubles at the library. But we should be moving by the end of summer, hopefully.
Sweet review. I haven't read anything from this author yet. It does look to be a fun read. Such a colorful bookcover. Oh, that Instagram! Of course, I am not much of an influencer. I really enjoyed your review. All the best to a sweet April. I am not very successful at getting a boxroom made. Maybe it's safer to just write.
Oh, definitely a fish out of water! What a fun premise. Good to see your review. You certainly gave me a smile this morning! Meanwhile, I have to see if I want some relationships to go the distance or not. Maybe it's spring fever and I just want to mix it up. 🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 All the best with your wonderful creativity!
I love the concept of the social media obsessed meets anti-social media characters!!! What a fun dichotomy for a story. Also, going from the big city to big sky Montana sounds like an exciting plot to dive into! Lastly, I love the book cover! 🌄💖
