Summary

OMBEA! Bea Schumacher is a devastatingly stylish plus-size fashion blogger with amazing friends, thousands of Insta followers - and a massively broken heart. Bea indulges in her weekly obsession: the hit reality show Main Squeeze. The fantasy dates! The kiss-off rejections! The surprising amount of guys named Chad! But Bea is sick and tired of the lack of body diversity on the show. Since when is being a size zero a prerequisite for getting engaged on television?

Although Bea has sworn off men altogether, when Main Squeeze asks her to be its next star, she agrees on one condition: under no circumstances will she actually fall in love.

But when the cameras start rolling, Bea finds herself in a whirlwind of sumptuous couture, Twitter wars, sexy suitors and an opportunity (or two, or five) to find messy, real-life love in the midst of a made-for-TV fairy tale. Bea has to decide whether it might just be worth trusting these men - and herself - for a chance at her own happily ever after.

Powerful!

This book hit me where it hurt the most and I loved it. It was more or less a perfect book for me.

Fun time

This is a fun time!! I enjoyed listening; and I hope there’s more books soon. Also, I was happily surprised by the narrator. She did a great job, which I didn,t expect.

Great book!

This was a really great and relaxing book during this whole Covid situation. The storyline had a bit of everything, good and bad people. I absolutely love the ending. It was very satisfying!

I would highly recommend this book if you’re into romance and self love and female leads 😃

Outstanding.

Amazing self-love themes for plus-sized folk. Narration was spot on. The writing is amazing! Brilliant book and amazing listen.

Really good read

When I started reading the book I felt a little disappointed. I didn't like that so much of the story was based around messenger. However I persisted with it because a friend recommended it and I actually enjoyed the book as I grew to know Bea and engaged with the storyline as a plus size person
