Bridget Jones’s Diary meets Survival of the Thickest in Danielle Allen’s CURVY GIRL SUMMER, a smoking-hot, hilarious novel about the perils of online dating.

“There’s got to be an easier way than dating. I want the shortcut. I just want to find my person and start our lives together.”

After a one-night stand with her clingy ex, Aaliyah James has an epiphany: this ain’t it. She knows what she wants, and she’s ready to move past casual hookups, flings, and situationships.

But for her family, the clock is ticking—after all, she’s almost thirty. And when they imply that her personality (and her body) might be too big to land a man, she lets them know they’ve gone too far—and her (nonexistent) man loves her curves, thank you very much. Now, she has seven weeks to find the perfect boyfriend to rub in their faces at the big, fancy birthday celebration she’s been planning.

After her first blind date goes wrong, charming local bartender Ahmad Williamson consoles her with a drink and some playful banter. Aaliyah takes him up on his suggestion to use a dating app—but the more she sees of his warm, funny, and easygoing nature, the less she wants to check her DMs. Will her next swipe bring her closer to true love—or is her real match closer than she thinks?

Chileeeee 😏 this book was great. The girl friends' dialogue felt so familiar, like I was having a birds eye view with my gals. And the sex scenes, whewwww. Something about a man talking you through sex, whewwww. Hell, it left me in shambles, I need me an Ahmad cause he knows how to please a woman. Ok,okay, now the rest of the book was just as good, too. It addressed familial issues, from parental pressures of marriage and grandchildren. Health concerns, death, healing, trauma, and settling. Whewwww, I want more.

Baby listen… I hope your Megan knees are in order, because this one is about to take you on a ride!

I absolutely loved the build up of Aaliyah and Ahmad’s friendship. This was a cute story centered around dating as a BBW. Aaliyah was kind of annoying to me low key, but as a BBW I felt where she was coming from. The flipping between being secure with how you presented, and then allowing your insecure thoughts to push you in another direction had me like 🙄. But then again, I could see myself in her so there’s that.
Ahmad, our fine azz heck bartender, came through in the clutch after they met and helped her through dating for the summer.

Can we go back to Ahmad right quick though? My man! My man! My man! 😂
There’s something special about a man that can successfully walk you through an “O” over and over again. Lawd… I love me some him. ❤️

Chapters 21 and 24… imma just sit that right there. 🫠

This was a really good read with an amazing ending. This was my first book by Danielle and won’t be my last.

Loved it!

Ok Ms. Danielle Allen. I’m loving this book. I love Ahmad and Aaliyah. The sexual chemistry and loving connection between them was sexy af. The way he made her talk to him during intercourse was deep. After all of the dancing around their feelings, they finally had their needed conversation.

And the funny part…. The men Aaliyah met online was a very accurate description. They had me hollering with their behaviors.

Love acquired

Beautiful black love

This was such an amazing listen! Danielle did such an awesome job writing this book. I absolutely knew Ahmad was falling for my girl Aaliyah. I’m so happy Aaliyah got her happy ending, she freaking deserved it. I’m so happy she finally stood up for herself when it came to her family, especially that miserable ass Uncle Al! I can’t forget her bestfriends Nina and Jasmine…..they are the best. I’m so happy to have given this book a chance, it was amazing!

Amazing

Would the author and narrator take a bow please. This book was funny, entertaining and overall a fantastic read to the end. The thoughts in a woman’s mind during the moments of hidden attraction are so funny to me. The banter between the main characters were just right. That uncle is some else. As a man reading this book, I had a grand time from beginning to end. Couldn’t stop laughing and commenting to myself on the drive. Wesleigh, your voice is so right and your switch between characters were flawless. Sometimes its hard without a full cast but you were amazing. Phenomenal job ladies, just phenomenal. I’m a fan.

Captivating and entertaining from the start
