Publisher's summary

When my dog runs away on the beach and into the arms of a handsome surfer, I think I’m in luck. Until I realize said surfer is actually a grump who acts like he owns the ocean.

I want to forget the encounter ever happened and focus on helping care for my dad, who suffered a brain injury while in the military. But I’m out of luck. Jerk supreme, aka Diego, goes to my new school. And since we’re in the same classes, I’ll be seeing a lot of his stupid white teeth and mischievous eyes while I do my best to finish my senior year and get started on my career.

Getting paired with him for a class project was just the icing on the cake. But the more time I spend with him, the more I realize first impressions aren’t always true. I’m falling for him, but I need to stay away.

Military brats know everything is temporary.

I’ll only break his heart.

It’s okay…

The story is cute for what it is don’t get me wrong. I think I just had a problem with the narrators of April and Diego. There isn’t any range in their voices for other character reads like Sadie or Tyrell. And hearing something spoken in Spanish by Mr. Valente just wasn’t giving what I was expecting Diego or his family to sound like. I know not everyone has the capability to “hear” a character’s voice in their head when reading, but I have to wonder if this was really what Kelsie Stelting expected voice wise for April and Diego?

Endearing

In "Curvy Girls Can't Date Surfers," the author skillfully weaves a tale that is both endearing and sweet, shedding light on the challenges military families face. The open discussion of insecurities adds depth to the narrative, making it a feel-good book that I truly enjoyed.

Female Voice ruins it

The story itself is cute, not in depth … just a cute story. There’s not much ‘desperation’ or ‘climax’ to the story. It’s all just a cute story about two seniors deciding where their lives go. It’s my first of the curvy girl series and I might try another one with higher reviews. Not sure it’s worth the $14 though. Definitely not with the same voice actors. The chapters were also short: 3-4 minutes maybe.

The female voice actor RUINS this. Her voice is nasally, and almost like an AI - there’s no inflection and very serious parts are ‘perky teenage’ just like every other chapter with her. No emotion at all. I found myself speeding through her chapters.

The male voice actor sounds every bit like a “surfer dude” but at least has some inflection. He was more tolerable and the ‘passion’ was at least felt. I’d do another audio book with him but NOT with same female.
