And her co-star, Nolan Shaw, an ex-boyband member infamous for his own x-rated antics, not only knows it, but is secretly her biggest fan. Overall: Sierra’s naughty, stimulating, steamy power combine with ultra entertaining, smart and sweet mind of Murphy!

Bee was literally portrayed as the biggest s*x object ever and all Nolan could think about was how h*rny and h*rd he was when he thought of her/was around her. I'd definitely recommend for someone looking for a lighter, entertaining read, which is low on angst and high on fun chemistry. I read the first 300 pages over the weekend and I had to force myself to pick this back up and finish it. Before writing full time, she held numerous jobs, such as wedding dress consultant, failed barista, and, ultimately, librarian.a steamy plus-size holiday rom-com about an adult film star who is semi-accidentally cast as a lead in a family-friendly Christmas movie, and the former bad-boy pop star she falls in love with.

As a Plus girl, I really loved how fatphobia was addressed and how body positive this entire book was. I loved how both the hero and heroine already new of each other and had crushes, and things developed into more as they worked together. There were so many positive conversations around body positivity, sexuality, mental health and sex work, this is what made me love this story so much more. The plot set-up was super fun and I liked Bee, and the representation felt super natural and just really nice to read about. The middle was a little drawn out and I found my mind wandering as I read, but I really enjoyed how there were opportunities for predictable and cliche plot points to happen, but the authors avoided that and had the couple communicate.He has to support his family : his mother who is still grieving his father, suffering from bipolar needs his help and his little sister who needs to be taken care of! For all that it read YA-ish, there is a lot of adult and sex content, so maybe work yourself upto this one if you're new to the steams. Boy band heart throb Nolan has been cast as the male lead role in an effort to clean up his bad boy image.

Her novels have been published in Czech, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, and Romanian. Julie Murphy lives in North Texas with her husband who loves her, her dog who adores her, and her cats who tolerate her.She reads contemporary, historical, a little paranormal, urban fantasy and romantic suspense, as well as erotic romance and more recently, new adult. And the smut was cringe and sex scenes are written so clunkily I legit can’t believe this was meant to be taken seriously. These characters didn't feel like they had adult problems and the problems that did feel adult had non-adult reactions to them (I think they are supposed to be mid to late twenties? However, based on the buddy read I was in for this book I don't think everyone expected it and it was a shock to the system for some. Nolan was successful musician till their Ink Band manager siphoned entire group’s money and disappeared.

Also one where our two lovable doofuses of main characters actually believe that the holiday movie aficionado fanbase doesn't interact at all with the adult industry fanbase. He needs this movie to work out for the sake of his family, and he’ll do anything to show the world the new and improved Nolan.Everything from the words chosen to the actual vibe of the scene completely pulled me out of the story. When she’s not writing or reliving her reference desk glory days, she can be found watching made-for-TV movies, hunting for the perfect slice of cheese pizza, and planning her next great travel adventure. Also, I feel like every conflict could've either been avoided or was brought on by the dumb actions of the main characters (the picture in the strip club? But things heat up quickly in Christmas Notch, Vermont, when Nolan recognizes his new co-star from her ClosedDoors account (oh yeah, he’s a member). When things start to heat up on set, Bee and Nolan must keep this steamy affair under wraps, or risk ruining everything .
