Reviewer’s Thoughts:

Haley Tillman is a woman who sees herself as a fat, frumpy woman that no one would want.  When she makes a wish asking for a man who would like her for who she is, she never imagined her prayers would actually be answered in the form of a tall, dark and yummy nephilim, Ryder.  Ryder see Haley for the voluptuous woman that she is and he’s determined to make her see herself the same way.

This was a cute story with a very sexy Ryder bound and determined to show our doubting heroine that she is just as gorgeous as the skinny woman she compares herself to.  Ryder, despite knowing Haley’s intimate fantasies, sees beneath the skin to see what a generous, caring, passionate woman Haley is.  He helps her break free from the antiquated notions of her mother and sister to be the person she was meant to be, which includes releasing her passion and finding the right person who will appreciate it.

Of course, we knew the man who was only supposed to help Haley find herself would fall for her and have to make a decision about what he wanted, but that didn’t take away from the story.  You rooted for both Ryder and Haley to get what they wanted.

Cute and fun read.  It was a good way to spend a few hours on a Sunday.
