THE BIG GIRL'S GUIDE TO BUYING LINGERIE

THE BIG GIRL'S GUIDE TO BUYING LINGERIE      AMIE STUART

My name is JADE BALLARD, and this is the story of how a freak accident with a cookie changed the life of a semi-reformed people-pleaser (that’s me!).

After a disastrous marital near-miss Jade Ballard retreats to San Antonio, cutting herself off from the world in general and more specifically her family’s country club lifestyle, which she no longer wants any part of. She takes comfort in food and the safety of an internet love affair.

Rowdy Yates is a semi-reformed womanizer who’s leery of long-term entanglements. Until Jade, he never seriously considered anything beyond a “Wife-For-A-Night.” 

After months of flirting on the internet the couple meets, only to discover they already know one another. Rowdy has always mistaken Jade’s shy reserved nature for snobbishness, and Jade has always viewed the woman-loving Rowdy as a Redneck Casanova. But the seven months they spent getting to know one another formed an attraction neither can fight.

MY REVIEW:

     When you’ve had to live your life by someone’s standards other than your own you tend to not know who you really are.  But for Jade Skye Ballard it took being left at the alter by the man her mother, the judge, handpicked. Her mother Judge Trudy Ballard, not for her but for her sister Emerald Rayne.  Somehow Allen fell for her size 10 self instead of her sister, size 4.

     They were all set to marry in fact she was at the alter when the great upstanding lawyer her mother liked so well ran off with a stripper he met at his bachelor party and then married her instead.  Jade was humiliated, angry, and took it out on her hair by chopping it off with desk scissors in the bathroom that night.  By morning she was packed and moving to a new town away from her mother who was accusing her of doing something to drive Allen away.  Of course she never told her mother she had been having to fact her orgasms with Allen, oh well.

     Three years have passed.  The pain and hurt are gone from what Allen did but not the anger.  Same holds for her mother taking his side saying, “If only…Blah, Blah, Blah!”  The bad part is somewhere along the line she gained 50lbs. and it never bothered her until now.  She met a guy on line 6 months ago and they have really hit it off.  SheCowboy: Robbie and she SkyeBaby met through a chat room for singer Chris Cagle.  Their debate over hockey got a little heated but the owner of the site asked them to take it to a private chat room.  Which they did.  Now they formed a routine of IM chats and emails.

     Now Robbie wants to press on and meet Skye does too but there is one small problem, she hasn’t told him she is overweight.  Yet, when he asked to meet for her birthday a coughing fit over a cookie got her in a mess, making it hard to resist.  Yet, there’s a twist these two don’t know they already know each other and what a surprise is in store for them both.  One thinks of him as a “Redneck Casanova” and the other thinks she is a “Snob.”

     So the meet doesn’t work out as well as the both had hoped.  Their romance on the internet was something totally different than in person.  He loved to get a rise out of her just to see her fine China complexion go flush.  She likes to be the bitch to get his shoulders to stiffen.  Yet, when they do reread each other’s emails the loving feelings they had built for one another over time was still there. So, can they try to make this work in spite of what they thought of each other prior to the letters of their true selves?

     I enjoyed this erotica BBW (Big Beautiful Woman) tale.  It really was a true story.  Which is a rare for a BBW.  Most make them straight erotica’s with no story.  But this had it all love, laughter, pain, sorrow, and so much more.  I give this 5 stars.
