It was fast-pace, steamy and funny. Also I'm a sucker for a snow storm.
My only issue with this novel is the use of the term "Heroin Chic". Maybe it's just me however there are other ways to talk about the issue of plus models "not being trendy" and criticize straight size models and how they are used and abusive just as plus size models are.
