Two plus sized Cinderella stories with a similar theme.The moment the heroes laid eyes on the heroines for the first time, they were head over heels in love.And when opportunity arose, they grabbed at it without the slightest hesitation.The heroines did not stand a chance of having second thoughts!Talking about being swept away by rhetorical abilities...Both heroes/princes are two of the chattiest characters you will ever come across in such reads.I have come to expect this from this author, but it never ceases to amaze me!They prattle on and on and on and on... and on!But this is Shayne McClendon, right?So yes! It was delightful!I am still smiling. Picked this up as a free read - actually two novellas in one e-book. The first story, started off promisingly and had alot of snarky humor which I greatly enjoyed. I enjoyed the chemistry between Jack and Petra and if this had been the beginning of a full length novel, I would have been completely happy. Then it was as if it zoomed straight into HEA, just OTT with how perfect the hero views the heroine and how he wants to be with her forever, despite them just having met that night. Which was sweet, but played a bit false. There was no struggle, no obstacle, just straight to love, which is fine, I suppose, but when it comes that easy, it's hard to believe in it, and that detracted from my enjoyment of the story. Much the same in the second story, except without any snark. Two plus size Cinderella stories, with little substance to them. There's promise with this writer so I'll give her another chance.
Do You like book Being Delightful (2013)?
Fast, funny, easy read. Loved the erotica parts, but glad it had a story to go with it.
