review 1: Mollie has it bad for JC, who has the hots for Suzy, who is Mollie's best friend and clueless that JC has the hots for her so she pushes Mollie to get it on with JC. JC likes Mollie as a friend and for some reason that is never explained hasn't made a move on Suzy, but does lots of mooning over her. Mollie joins a fitness club because she is overweight and out of shape presumably so she will be worthy of the dreamy JC. We know that Mollie is miserable and suffers from low self-esteem because she whines about it incessantly to anyone who will listen and, man, did I ever feel sorry for them. And now we meet the hero Conner, Suzy's cousin, gym owner and fitness instructor, owner of a muscle-bound hardbody, who falls into instant lust with "curvy" out-of shape Mollie. Mollie f... morealls hard for Conner's manly form, but knows that her "curves" and the fact that she sweats will turn him off because he is surrounded by evil, predatory, size 2 bimbos who sport fake, pointy nails. (That's how we know they're evil.) Conner handily seduces Mollie. They have sex, a lot of sex. Next we get a double Big Misunderstanding followed by makeup sex, the setup for the Suzy/JC sequel, and the HEA. It's all very high school with everyone running around having secret convos about who likes whom. I hardly know where to begin with the problems I had with this book. If you want to put a plus-size woman with a hot guy, fine, I can buy that. But it strains credulity to think that a man who has dedicated his life to fitness would lust after a woman who is carrying around enough extra weight to have rolls of flesh and shortness of breath. He doesn't want her to lose weight even though her health is adversely affected and she WANTS to shape up. When Conner's reason for wanting Mollie to stay chunky is revealed, my eyes just about rolled out of my head. Bad agenda, Conner. You need therapy. About those sex scenes. I did not enjoy reading them and I am a fan of well-written erotica. The author must have gone to The Big Golden Book of Euphemisms for Ladyparts. The overuse of the term "weeping flesh" made me worry that poor Mollie needs to see her gyno, stat. The dialogue between the girlfriends...what can I say...unnatural and jarring. Exposition is clumsy, phrasing is awkward, information is delivered via dump truck. The writing is so painfully amateurish that I had to force myself to finish it. The best thing I can say for this novella is that it's mercifully short.Odd that Decadent Publishing is allowed to skew the averages for its own book with two 5 star ratings.
review 2: For the Love of Mollie was another super sexy story by KT Grant. Mollie is much like every woman in America and feels like she needs to lose some weight. She has had a crush on sexy masseuse Juan-Carlos for what seems like forever and believes the only reason he isn’t interested in her is because she needs to lose weight. On her first day of working out at her new gym, owned by her best friend Suzy’s brother, she meets super sexy trainer Conner Bean, who also happens to be Suzy’s cousin. Conner is immediately attracted to Mollie, and thinks she is perfect just as she is, but decides he will be her personal trainer so he can convince her how perfect she is in his eyes. However, Conner isn’t only interested in working out with Mollie in the gym…he wants her in his bed too. The chemistry between Conner and Mollie is off the charts from their very first kiss and only got hotter as they spent more and more time together. I really loved seeing Mollie change and become more confident as this story progressed. She was always a strong and beautiful woman, but with Conner’s help she was able to see herself as others did. Grant once again tells a beautiful story filled with humor and passion. less
