Harlem, 1917. After spending half her life pretending to be something she's not, performance is second nature for cabaret owner Bertha Hines. With the election drawing near and women's voting rights on the ballot, Bertha decides to use her persuasive skills to push the men of New York City in the right direction. Chef Amir Chowdhury jumped ship in New York to get a taste of the American Dream, only to discover he's an unwanted ingredient. When ornery Amir reluctantly takes a job at The Cashmere, he thinks he's hit the bottom of the barrel; however, working at the club reignites his dream of being a force for change. His boss, Bertha, ignites something else in him. Bertha and Amir clash from the start, but her knowledge of politics and his knowledge of dance force them into a deÌtente that fans the flames of latent desire. But Bertha has the vice squad on her tail, and news from home may end Amir's dream before it comes to fruition. With their pasts and futures stacked against them, can Amir and Bertha hold on to their growing love?" -- $c Amazon.com 650 0 $a Women $x Suffrage $v Fiction. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a East Indians $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Harlem (New York, N.Y.) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Literature & Fiction. $2 local 655 7 $a Romance. $2 local 655 7 $a Historical. $2 local 941 $a 3 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20180828010919.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20180731025522.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20171202011409.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9018D524D72E11E7950E963597128E48 994 $a C0 $b JUHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
