“I don’t have to like my job,” I said to the steering wheel. “I just have to do it.”
This was fun! Witty, fast-paced and light. Morgan hates her new job, working in the IT department of a large company, because it's mostly all about monitoring every single email from all of her coworkers, no matter how personal, in order to sniff out someone committing fraud. She hates feeling like she's prying into their lives, but when an email tips her off that her crush on her boss's daughter is requited, she's torn between pretending she never saw it, or using it to make a move. This was short and light, with just the barest hint of intrigue, and a sweet start to a romance. The characters were really likeable and I actually enjoyed that the main conflict of the story was a moral one, with Morgan feeling miserable that she knew so much about her coworkers. And I really like the type of resolution the author chose to go with.
3.5 stars.

Short and sweet. I appreciated seeing Morgan wrestle with the ethics here in a way that felt real and rooted in the character's good faith. It was refreshing to see a deception/secrets storyline that was so centered on a real desire for honesty, because as icky as the situation was, I never felt icky about the choices Morgan made.
