Publisher's summary

Big Girl Panties by Stephanie Evanovich is a rollicking and poignant romantic comedy about a young widow who decides to get in shape...and winds up getting her groove back - and a whole lot more!

Holly Brennan used food to comfort herself through her husband's illness and death. Now she's alone at age 32. And she weighs more than she ever has. When fate throws her in the path of Logan Montgomery, personal trainer to pro athletes, and he offers to train her, Holly concludes it must be a sign. Much as she dreads the thought of working out, Holly knows she needs to put on her big girl panties and see if she can sweat out some of her grief.

Soon, the easy intimacy and playful banter of their training sessions lead Logan and Holly to most intense and steamy workouts. But can Holly and Logan go the distance as a couple now that she's met her goals - and other men are noticing?

Not for the office

I downloaded this book after listening to the sample and just loved the plot line and narrator. About 30 minutes into listening at my desk the book took a little erotic turn. It was a bit unexpected but luckily it didn't take up the whole book.

I enjoyed the story. I found it cute and something a little different than what I'm used to and I liked the witty banter. The only con I would have is that it was a bit long.

A must read!!

From the first few pages I was hooked! There was such a good story line I felt like I was emotionally involved from the start. Every chapter left me wanting to hear more and that to me is what makes a good book!

captivating

this was an interesting read. a co worker of mine suggested it to me. she loves this book and in all honesty I do too. very well written and great story line pulled me into the story right from the beginning. I find myself wanting more. great read lots of laughs and some tears. only thing I can say is yes there are a couple graphic r rated scenes but good for a younger (20+) audience

Great Book! Highly recommend!!

Very well written and great characters!
Enjoyed every minute of reading it!
Love the subject detail most of all!

A bit different than expected

Would you consider the audio edition of Big Girl Panties to be better than the print version?

Can't say, as I have not read the book, just listened to the audio verison

If you’ve listened to books by Stephanie Evanovich before, how does this one compare?

Not exactly what I have come to expect from Evanovich. Far to "romancey" and not near enouch comedy & quirky characters for me.

What does Katie Schorr bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her voice is nice.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Don't think it really rates a film version.

Any additional comments?

Just not my cup of tea, I guess

Big girl panties, great title!

I liked the book for the most part. I just thought it was sad that he didn't want her until she lost weight. I personally would have told him to go to hell.

Fat girl wins

Loved the plot the funny and the ending not a love story plot to say but it was funny witty sad and brought out all the emotions definitely a can’t stop listening to book!

Storyline is good

I enjoyed listening to this audiobook and enjoyed the narrator.

LOL & Heart Wrenching All In One

I loved Holly's slow transformation and her determination. Logan's uneasiness with his true feelings for Holly worried me and kept me listening. Loved, loved loved Chase and Amanda.
