YOU GUYYYS! I have never fallen faster for a book than I have with this one. First the initial draw of this book for me right off the bat is the plus size FMC. Already major points for me cause I myself am plus sized. This story gives us Elianna “Elli” and Westley “Wes” - and they are so adorable, believable and relatable. Every character Daisy gives in this book you’re able to find something to relate to and I very much appreciated that.
Elli I related to the most, for beyond also being a plus size woman. Her journey with religious trauma (I wasn’t Mormon, but was raised Catholic) and love how vulnerable she was in her journey. Her and Izzy I ADORED. but also how Elli came to love her body and have a confidence with herself as she seemed to grow with her new life. I thought that was simply beautiful
I love the strangers to friends to lovers flow of the story and how we got to know the two MCs before they became a couple. This story is just warm and fluffy. I seriously was so mad life got in my way of reading. I could read 10 more books of just this little world and group. The way Wes treated, loved and adored Elli made me ache for that same kind of love. Also Wes…Eddie Munson coded…ILL SAY NO MORE.
