Cute. Very quick (I knew that going in though), but cute. And while none of these shorter books of hers really have any great deal of plot to begin with, I've noticed that, in majority, they all have some sort of encouraging or heartfelt message in them that at some point, everyone has needed (and sometimes still needs) to hear.

Short and sweet

Sweet story about love and acceptance, in the age of social media. Real men do love curvy girls, and aren't afraid to prove it.

Yikes!
>>>"I'm going to take her bare and fill her waiting womb with my seed because I want us to be bound. Together. Forever."
>>>"You've been creaming yourself thinking about me."
>>"I want that cunt of yours creaming all over me."
>> 2nd day "I plan to marry you, Marsha Foster. I plan to give you babies-" And they are getting married


Cheesy romance:

Marsha Foster has met her hunky dream of a man from her favorite romance novel covers, Carter Reeves. His six foot three muscular frame hovers over her five foot five curves. He is obsessed with her, yet knows very little about her. It is sad that she feels less than because of her looks; however, these are normal feelings for anyone who has been rejected or made to feel that they are not beautiful enough.

Sample
One thing I've learnt in this life is that everyone is different. There is no cookie cutter mold to create the perfect look, the perfect shape, the perfect size. It doesn't exist. The only thing that truly exists is imperfection. And it's in all of us. Learning to embrace your imperfections, even loving them, is the biggest hurdle most of us face.

mistake at 34%
Carter's "voice" sounds like it was written by a woman "the disgusting behavior of my fellow man"
One photo shoot and she is okay with sleeping with him
She is in love and ready to have unprotected sex in order to have his babies
Loved her from the first moment he saw her on his Instagram feed
10 year age gap
The two Epilogues were really not giving anything additional to the story just more fluff

This one was a bit too incredibly fast-burn insta-love for me personally.

Hot, quick read


Breakout the s’mores because this fire is roaring. Whew! Insta love, super hot, and so much Alpha! This story was about a BBW who has an outside confidence that she presents to the world but still has the wounds inside. There was doubt on her part, but not a lot of self-bashing that you sometimes read with stories of BBW heroines. She worried that he “could do better”. I think everyone worries about their selfworth at times regardless of their size and I found that really relatable.

There’s insta-lust/love and then there’s whatever the fuck this was. Ridiculous plot.
