There were too many side characters to keep up with, but I loved Mac and Freya’s dynamic!

Super cute friends to lovers story. The banter between Freya and Mac is so cute. She is a seamstress and he is a football (soccer) star. They start out as friends, just watching Netflix and hanging out every night. Then she wants to have sex for the first time and he is more than happy to help.

I decided to read this on a whim to help get myself out of a short reading slump, and while it did the job it isn't really a book I would recommend to another. It was cute, funny, sexy, and entertaining at times; however, it just didn't sit right with me that the plus-sized protagonist really came into her self worth after getting the attention of her fit and best friend. There were just a lot of components that made me think a read through from a sensitivity reader might have done this book a whole world of good.

I wasn’t the biggest fan of the writing, as well as the focus on Freya’s insecurities. While Mac is very fat positive, Freya isn’t. And that never really changes,

as Freya celebrates weight loss in the epilogue

Overall it was an easy read, however check content warnings. Freya and Mac are really cute together, they chemistry and bickering were really entertaining.
