Resumen del Editor

Rian Thompson thought she joined the gym to get healthy. Little did she know she was about to add 190 pounds of swoonworthy abdominal muscles and arrogance to her life.

Every day in Rians's life follows a predictable pattern, and she wouldn't have it any other way. She's got a nice job, a nice place to live, and a nice family - even if they are a little wedding-zilla-ish at the moment.

She doesn't need anything spectacular to be happy. She just needs to get healthy - mentally, physically...and maybe spiritually if that happens. But she'll settle for two out of three until her sister finally gets hitched.

Carlos Davies thought his life was perfect. Little did he know it was about to be turned upside down by a woman who is not his type.

In Carlos' mind, his life is damn near perfect. He's got a great job, a great place to live, and a great stash of pickup lines that always work. It has occurred to him that maybe no one actually takes him all that seriously. But with these bulging biceps and thick, dark hair, does that even matter since he's never sleeping alone?

Welcome to Weight Expectations, where great - and unexpected - things happen.

Contains mature themes.

Big Girls Unite!

There are a lot of plus size influencers not to forget Melissa McCarthy (who is beautiful). Carlos was a smart man but needed to touch the young lady with his mouth on her center. IJS Carlos sounds like he is drunk. Man up the voice get husky, sir!

i recommend reading the series

im a huge penny reid fan, i recommend reading the knitting in the city books first to understand more of these spin off smartypants romance series (i like the Winston brothers series even more). the book was good overall, but i felt it lacked something. like characters weren't fully developed. but i liked the main characters and the supporting ones fine. narration,,,I'm sorry i just didn't like the male lead. i got used to it and finished, but not my favorite. he sounded like a wanna be surfer.

Weird choice for male narrator

I actually liked the story quite a bit, but it was hard to get past the male narrator’s voice. It was annoying, but bearable at first, since towards the beginning of the book Carlos was a total tool. When the Carlos’ words became more heartfelt and genuine though, the narrator sounded anything but. I couldn’t help rolling my eyes because the narrator sounded like such a douche canoe. It made me kind of sad that I didn’t read the book instead. Now if I read it, I probably won’t be able to hear Carlos with any other voice in my head.

love Rion

the male voice was annoying and made him sound like a dumb jock. eh

I couldn't get past the male character

I ended up returning this book. The male character's voice was too annoying. Please rerecord!

Fabulous book

Fabulous book! Great story great narration! Smartypants romance does it again!! Well done M E Carter!!

Cute Story

I guess I’m too used to read erotica. The story was cute, but I would have loved to see how Carlos handled Rian behind closed doors. Otherwise, it was a sweet romantic story. The narration wasn’t my favorite, but it grew on me. The story meant more.

how us big girls can do just fine.

I really enjoyed this story. It was a great story. Even us big girls can have a little attention.

What the heck happened?

Ammendment: I am upgrading my review now that I finished. It 2/3 of the book, but Carlos became more likeable and the story had a good message...without being preachy. Unfortunately, I am still not a fan of the male narrator.

First, I am a huge Smartypants Romance Universe fan, get ready though because here comes the but...What the heck happened here?!?!? While I really enjoyed the female leads story and narrator, I cannot even remotely say the same about the lead male character OR narrator. There has never been a character I was so disgusted by in any of the Smartypants Romance books as I was by Carlos and the narrator made it much worse. So much so, that I stopped mid book to write this review. It is rare, even if it is bad, that I don't finish a book and I'm not going to make an exception here...but I am VERY tempted. It makes me sad.

Great Story

I thoroughly enjoyed the story during the female narration. I had a hard time getting past the fact the male narrator sounded like a frat guy jerk. If you can power through that it's a great book!!
