I was really looking forward to this! While there were some cute moments this overall just fell flat for me.

I shouldn't say I finished it! I DNF'd it. The formatting just isn't my thing and didn't help me get into what the story was about!

This was a very fun book. It's not my typical genre, but I read a review of it somewhere and thought it sounded interesting so I added it to my library queue. I'm not a fan of romances or reality television, but maybe that made me like this even more because it felt fresh and new for me. I wish I knew more about fashion because I only recognized a few of the designers that were mentioned.

This is the third(?) time to read this and I actually enjoyed it the most this time around. Maybe because I listened to it this time? Anywho. I respect Bea’s final decision more this time, before I felt like it was a big cop out for the author…

I enjoyed this one. I needed a fun, not work-related escape. This is a take on if a plus-sized woman was chosen as the Bachelorette. The character development was great and I enjoyed it a lot. Would like to read more from this author.

I really enjoyed this book, it was fun , dramatic and a quick read. However, I had a few issues with the book both editing and character wise.
This book could easily have been 30-50 pages shorter. There was so much unnecessary filler on here, like why do we need to read a receipt? It adds nothing to the story and just takes away from the world of Bea and Main Squeeze.
I’d also like to know why the author and editors didn’t think to fact check on makeup skills and applications? Bronzer goes on your cheek bones or just above them, not below them. You also wouldn’t highlight your upper lip unless you like that sweaty lip look.
The main issue I had was how Bea made herself out to be the victim when she was a shitty person. She slept with a man who had a fiancé, she was falling in love with Asher, saying he’s her person but then has sex with Luc and expects Asher to be okay with it. Bea is trash.
