Synopsis

Bridget Jones’s Diary meets Survival of the Thickest in Danielle Allen’s CURVY GIRL SUMMER, a smoking-hot, hilarious novel about the perils of online dating.

“There’s got to be an easier way than dating. I want the shortcut. I just want to find my person and start our lives together.”
After a one-night stand with her clingy ex, Aaliyah James has an epiphany: this ain’t it. She knows what she wants, and she’s ready to move past casual hookups, flings, and situationships.

But for her family, the clock is ticking—after all, she’s almost thirty. And when they imply that her personality (and her body) might be too big to land a man, she lets them know they’ve gone too far—and her (nonexistent) man loves her curves, thank you very much. Now, she has seven weeks to find the perfect boyfriend to rub in their faces at the big, fancy birthday celebration she’s been planning.

After her first blind date goes wrong, charming local bartender Ahmad Williamson consoles her with a drink and some playful banter. Aaliyah takes him up on his suggestion to use a dating app—but the more she sees of his warm, funny, and easygoing nature, the less she wants to check her DMs. Will her next swipe bring her closer to true love—or is her real match closer than she thinks?

A Macmillan Audio production from Bramble Books.

PICK THIS BOOK UP NOW!!!!!! Oh my gosh, I'm obsessed. This definitely has a slow start with the heroine choosing to date a new person each week in order to find a date to her birthday party. She goes to the same bar every time and strike up a friendship full of banter with the bartender. AND IT'S THE......more

Goodreads review by Jenae on July 01, 2024

Was the banter good yea but even for a “slow burn” which I think is a horrible description for what was going on…the book comprised of the same scene 5 or 6 different times. It’s clear the MMC isn’t married but for some reason we (Aaliyah) don’t find that out out until 200+ pages into the book…it wa......more
