Was so disappointed in this book. I loved the premise of a bisexual plus-sized woman with anxiety going on a bunch of dates just to get a break in dating. There are cute and fun moments I just didn't enjoy the ending and I think the main character made a poor choice.
She had so much more chemistry with Brian than Jackson, I thought for sure Joey saw through the BS he was putting Haleigh through. Also a follow up message to the publisher could have fixed that inte view issue...

So honestly this story only started to get good when Haleigh started to actually like her dates. It was super slow paced in my opinion. I felt like we always knew the outcome of what was going to happen. So, I was hoping she would have had more tension with either her dates or with the true love interest. But everything felt very lackluster when it came together. There wasn’t really a moment for me where the main love interest wasn’t going to be the one. This book does start to read faster once you’re about 65% through. Overall, it was good but not a story I’d look to reread again.

Thanks Netgalley and St. Martins Press for this opportunity!
