Big Girl Panties by Stephanie Evanovich

    I went on a trip and I wanted a good book for the plane and I found this one and I was not disappointed. The inside cover reads:

    "Holly didn't expect to be a widow at thirty-two. She also didn't expect to be so big. After her husband's death, food was the one thing she could always count on. Now, those extra pounds make flying coach feel like medieval torture- especially when she's squished next to Logan Montgomery. A personal trainer to famous pro athletes, her seatmate is so hot that he makes Holly sweat in all the right (and so embarrassingly wrong!) places.

    Though Holly doesn't make the grade on Logan's first- impression meter, he finds himself intrigued by her sharp wit and keen insights- a welcome change from the high-maintenance models he dates- so he impulsively offers to get her back in shape. A little skeptical but ready to make at least one positive change in her life, Holly agrees.

   To Logan's (and her own) surprise Holly turns out to be a natural in the gym, slimming down into a bona fide looker with killer curves- and a new kind of hunger. Before either of them can stop it, the easy intimacy of their training sessions leads to even more steamy workouts away from the gym.

    Logan's best friends, professional baseball player Chase Walker and his wife, Amanda, see that this is more than a fling, even if Logan and Holly don't. But can a man whose whole life depends on looks commit himself to a woman who doesn't fit his ideals? Now that Holly's turning other men's heads, does she even need Logan anymore? Are they a couple built to last... or destined to fizzle?"

   
 
 
    First off, I hate the word panties. People hate the word moist well I hate the word panties. Now that that's over, I quite enjoyed the book for the most part. There were some intense sex scenes I was not prepared for. Didn't realize it would be that kind of book. My favorite part was the last line but I wont spoil that for you. Besides you wouldn't understand unless you read the book. Ironically since a lot of the book is about Logan training Holly it made me feel motivated to work out.
 
    There were some parts of the book that I wasn't a fan of. Mainly Chase and Amanda's weird spanking thing which again is something you would have to read the book to understand. I don't want to spoil any part of the book. Another thing I have a problem with is a big part of the book and that's that basically even after Holly loses a lot of weight it's not certain that she's thin enough for Logan or Logan's life, thinks Logan. Excuse me, what? Boy you don't deserve her then? But some how I was still able to read the book and actually enjoy it.
