Successful businesswoman Avery Barrows likes her dips and curves, but she’s sick of the haters telling her that she should be ashamed of her body instead of embracing it. Determined to send them a big f*** you, Avery resolves to cut loose during a girls’ trip, hightailing her quick-mouthed, plus-sized self to New Orleans. So, what’s a smart woman with a little extra gotta do to get laid in this town?
Not much if you ask Declan McGinn, the lead singer of BlackSmith. Tall, dark, and tattooed, with a body made for sin, Declan prefers his women as curvy as his guitars. Avery’s sharp tongue and keen mind make him want her even more.
As they burn up the sheets, Avery and Declan realize this is no one-night (or even one-week) stand. But for all of her bluster, Avery isn’t sure she can handle any more rejection. Besides, Declan has demons of his own. Now Avery has a choice to make: play it safe, or place her trust in the hands of a man who’s as tempting as the devil himself.

MY REVIEW:
Talk about laughter and pain pulled together in a beautiful blend of erotic banter, raw sex, and fast building romance/friendship.
You have Avery a thirty-year-old female engineer trying to make partner at her firm. Highly unlikely but she keeps dreaming. Oh yeah, and working her ass off cleanup all the men’s messes on top of doing her own work. In fact, this vacation she is finally going on with her college best friend will be a working one.
Katia, ex-model and now the photographer is not happy she can’t say no or won’t say no as Kat likes to say. Kat is somewhat royalty in New Orleans where they are going on this trip. So, this trip is all on her say. Avery is prepared to be excited. But she knows that even though Kat’s not living the life of a model and she eats and is much happier she still outweighs her in boobs alone.
Both love the other for who they are flaws and all no matter what. Avery just had a hard time being Kat’s DUFF (designated ugly fat friend) all through college. And all though they have code on how to handle the guys now doesn’t hurt any less being the one the guys hit up for info on her. Or asked out to get info or so you would put in a good word for them.
Killing Avery’s spirit worse than her father did. Then add her last ex-and you have a huge disaster for destruction. Who really wants that? So, she is not back on the saddle so to speak. 😉
Then she gets bumped into by Declan and her whole world is turned upside down by this sexy tattooed demigod. And when he can’t seem to take his eyes off her lips her rack even after she gave him a dressing down for not watching where he was going, she knew there was chemistry. Then he asks her out though that’s too fast.
Kat says yes for her though. See how the romance begins and all the humor and heartache in between go. This is intense and fast-paced. Wires get crossed when fear of relationships get talked about.
I give this: 5++++ stars. Provided by netgalley.com.
