Okay, how can you not love most insta-love reads? Including this for sure. This book just carries a happy feel good tone throughout. Even when the beautifully voluptuous Valentine dumps her ex- that is cocky, scornful, and childish. For not taking her seriously, discounting all she does in her profession, and for fat shaming her.
What she didn’t know was that she had an interested party during the floor show right there in the chain restaurant. You see the guy who most might call an Adonis, she had noticed him earlier. When he was leaving the restroom, she was thinking he is gorgeous. He saw her too, but he was with a group and the birthday song started so he couldn’t talk to her. He did return and loved that his curvy girl was giving the guy what for.
When he asks to sit with her at the bar the chemistry is instant. As they are talking he asks what Jason did so he never does it. Although he had eaten he buys her dinner, they are talking about everything they have in common which is a lot. Then before you know it they are heating up the sheets, but this is no one and done you get a HEA. A book received during July-Aug. giveaways.

Super cute, super fun, super fast! But how can you complain about this in an instalove story?! Valentine (LOL) and Garrett meet the day before Valentine's Day, drawn to one another with merely a glance. Valentine ends up dumping her arrogant, fat-shaming, pushy boyfriend right there in the restaurant bar, pushed too far by his insensitive and insulting comments, finally realizing that she's worth so much more. Garrett just happens to be in the same restaurant for a coworkers birthday, and upon catching the show in the bar, cannot pass up the opportunity to know this amazing woman better. Fortune favors the bold, and both Garrett and Val finally have the sweetheart they deserve. A short book, but perfect for a quick break - sure make you believe in love at first sight. Happy Reading!!

I really enjoyed this fast-paced quick to read novella, it has a quiet to read fun storyline, Valentine is meeting her boyfriend for dinner and while waiting for the useless man she sees a handsome man, who must be taken? Right?
What follows is drama, fun and a steamy instalove tale. Wonderfully entertaining.

A cute, short read about instalove found between Garrett and Valentine. The book characters were very likeable and it was nice to read how decisive they both were about what they wanted. Good communication between them. An enjoyable and quick read.
