The Next Best Fling was quite an enjoyable read! I adored Marcela and Theo, and Angela's character was a wonderful addition to the story. Ben and Alice were, well, Ben and Alice. I did think we would get a bit more wedding based interactions/events, as the engagement party had been what spurred Marcela and Theo's whole... situationship along.

I also felt like some background pieces were missing... like Theo was an NFL player so shouldn't he be loaded? I felt like there were times where Theo was portrayed as very middle class/average, when that shouldn't have been the case. He was so recently out of the NFL that I felt like he could have had some interactions with old teammates or fans or something. Overall the ex-NFL player thing felt like a prop but not a reality.

4.5 stars. This book was honestly everything I ever wanted. Emotionally intelligent man? Check. Plus size female character? You got it. Books upon books? Absolutely. It was so refreshing to read a plus-size female character and see such a relatable struggle with body image and the insecurities that can come with that. Theo is truly a golden man and has made his way to my top 5 book boyfriends. Do yourself a favor and pick up this book!!
