I enjoy this author's chubby heroines quite a bit, but the short story format doesn't allow for the angst to draw out as much as I'd like. Still enjoy them, though!
As a plump girl myself I know what it is like to feel insecure. I immediately understood Maggie and why she felt the way she did about herself and realized that sometimes there is a prince charming out there who sees a woman as somthing more than a size. I loved the sex scenes and there was lots of chemistry I would have loved for the book to be longer :) ..

Cute story of what Jake will do to get a date with Maggie. I liked that Maggie was big and beautiful and that Jake wanted her, not a trophy date.
