C*ck Down The Block

First off, I absolutely love the title of this book! The cover is also incredibly cute, which instantly caught my attention. One of the highlights for me was how beautifully body positivity was woven throughout the story. The book doesn't shy away from addressing important topics like fatphobia and misogyny, and I absolutely loved how those issues were confronted head-on—seeing those moments of justice felt so satisfying!

As a mid-sized woman, I found this book deeply relatable. It really highlights the emotional impact of judgmental behavior on mental health and does a fantastic job of showing how the characters grow and overcome these challenges.

The story itself is excellent! I adored both Chris and Trixie; they’re such a perfect match. Their relationship is refreshingly free of unnecessary drama, fights, or miscommunication (apart from the first proposal, of course). The writing kept me hooked from start to finish—it’s funny, engaging, and so entertaining.

This was my first book by this author, and I’m officially sold! I’ll definitely be picking up more of their works. I also fell in love with the chaotic yet lovable Kingsman family, and I’d love to read more about them in the future.

A huge thank you to Beyond The Book PR for providing me with a free copy for honest review and the opportunity to read this gem. If you’re a fan of sports romance with a curvy FMC and the ultimate book boyfriend in Chris, I highly recommend giving this one a try!
