More Than Cake

De: Tani Hanes

Narrado por: Kelsey Navarro

MJ Jassemolada is a big girl, and has been a big girl her whole life. Living in LA all her life, she feels like she's surrounded by the thin and beautiful of the world, and having a widower father who tells her she's beautiful every day just doesn't help. She can see her reflection in the mirror, after all, loud and clear.

After graduation from UCLA, she gets a coveted job as personal assistant to superstar singer Meredith Renner, who's leaving for a world tour with Heath Spencer, who's even more popular than Meredith, if such a thing is possible. Meredith is as awful as MJ expected her to be, but Heath turns out to be nice. And smart. And funny. And - attracted to her? Could such a thing be possible? He's only interested in being her friend, right?

But as the tour progresses across the globe, and MJ and Heath spend more and more time together, MJ is forced to admit what just couldn't be: Heath Spencer likes her. In that way. So, though she's scared out of her wits, MJ, who's never had a boyfriend, who's never even kissed anyone, throws herself into an exciting, secret, and very sexy romance with one of the most handsome and sought after men on the planet.

Contains mature themes.

Loved it!

From beginning to end, I loved it and all the twists and turns! Nice work!

Too long and too whiny

I get low self esteem and self deprication , at a certain oooint the insults and the I’m so gross were too much. It made me feel like a person of size didn’t write this.

Editor please!

I enjoyed the book, but it was waaaay too long. The story was solid, the characters were developed, the narration was fine, there was just too much. This was a 10 hour booked dressed up in 15 hours. Toward the end I got bored. There were several places I thought the story was getting ready to wrap up, and I would check the playing time and there were still several hours left. I finally just quit.

BBW Romance at its finest.

This is the first book of Tani's that I have read/listened too and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Although it was a rather a long book, could it have been shorter - yes, But I am glad it wasn't because I did enjoy the story..

At the beginning, I thought our heroine MJ was a bit of a doormat because of the way she let the antagonist treat her, but later on she explained to the hero about picking your battles. Having said that, she was a lot more patient than I would have ever been.

The hero Heath was absolutely wonderful. His love for MJ was unwavering and he was very supportive of her music and also her insecurities. It was a lovely read. This was definitely a feel good HEA that I am glad I spent the time listening.

Nice

It was an enjoyably read but at times it felt like it was a bit repetitive and I get that the FMC has self esteem issues and the self doubt but after a while it felt like it was going in a circle. I do love the body positive message in the book.

Kick back with wine & enjoy the Ride 💗🔥💔💞

I Found myself unable to put the BOOK down. There was a little bit of everything in it! Never boring... Sweetness, sex🔥, violence. A must READ!
Thanks to Both Author and Narrator's

The new law would also require a state court

The first time you have a good day I think you’re gonna have to take it to a doctor because you don’t want it and I think you’re not going anywhere so you. So you don’t want me there so I can take you there to see if you want it but you don’t want that and then you have the chance that.

Virginity lost

Although I like this book and it’s overall tone .. it’s basically a coming out story about a sheltered young lady who is broken in to a whole new world full of sexual firsts by an experienced musician and confidence. At first I thought he took advantage of her shy and naive nature but eventually I realized it was more . This is a must read but think about what you read .

A wonderful listen

I love that the book is body positive.
I love the characters and that they have depth.
I love the romantic development. Not too sappy or sugary. It felt realistic, which is tough to do given the premise. I wanted to stay with these characters and see how their lives continue.
The narrator did a fantastic job with the accents.
The length of the book was fine. Perhaps it could have been two books, as most authors might do, but every part of the book held my interest. And one download is easier than two.
Well written and much enjoyed!

Not finished yet

MJ is WHINY WHINY WHINY! The book started off great but I cannot get past MJ putting herself down and keep giving Meredith empathy. The writing is spectacular and the narrator brings the story to life but the “fat shaming/ self downpour” I am completely over it. I will finish to see how the story ends but it’s a struggle.
