Content warnings at the beginning - Warnings of external fatphobia in one chapter. SUPER appreciated that this isn’t a continual thread throughout the book. Deserves a content warning for the girls you knew in High School. Dual narration.
MMC:
Pro Football player - from a sports ball family
He falls soooo hard first…10 years of waiting for enthusiastic consent - I would cautiously say that he’s obsessed (in a completely non creep way)
Friends to lovers - MMChris was friend zoned by Trixie when he was 18.
FMC:
Plus sized beaut
Bookish Librarian
C*ck (🐓) lover
General notes:
TOYS
Sex worker rep
Found family/support network
Any book with a chapter title - GOYKATTDLAGG 🙊 is a must read.
I LOVED this. So much body positivity. The big guys seem cool with a woman who won’t break. I’m pretty exited to see more of this group as the book progress.
I’m desperate to read the second book in the series but I loved the audio of the first so much I almost want to (but likely won’t) hold off to see in the second will be released on Audio. Brain reading it just won’t hit the same way.
The narrators were SO perfect for this book.
I’ve already been raving about this book to people in person.
