Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Social Butterfly PR in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

I am loving the Hartigan’s series from Ms Flynn. In this installment we get to spend more time with oldest sibling, Frankie, as he has a bit of a “come to Jesus” moment in regards to his personal life.This is paired with an opportunity to “rescue” Lucy (we met her in book one as well, she is Gina’s friend) whom he knows casually.

I genuinely liked both Frankie and Lucy. I appreciated that both of them came to their situation with insecurities that caused miscommunications. Combining this with being at Lucy’s high school reunion for a week makes for an entertaining slow burn.

Ms Flynn does an excellent job of weaving the good qualities of Frankie and Lucy in as well, giving us well rounded and relatable characters. I found myself empathizing with both of them on multiple occasions.

This fun, character driven story also has a secondary cast that helps us see the multiple facets of Frankie and Lucy even more fully. Family, friends, coworkers, even a high school nemesis come into play. The group surrounding Frankie and Lucy help highlight some of the issues they are dealing with and show how the appearance of “having it all” can hide a lot. We also get to see the dangers of interpreting someone’s actions through our own filters.

Strong characters (both primary and secondary) combined with excellent storytelling created a compelling story that pulls the reader in. The slow burn, followed by a push/pull relationship made the eventual conflict even that much more realistic.

Muffin Top is a strong stand-alone effort in a connected series. There are glimpses of Ford and Gina from the first book, but no real spoilers. We also see a little more of the Hartigan siblings who will be featured in future books. Both of these aspects are handled well and contribute strongly to the story here. This is a series I am looking forward to reading more of!

“Smart, sassy, and utterly delightful! Get ready to fall head-over-heels in love with Lucy, one of the wittiest and most inspiring heroines I’ve ever met!”
– Annika Martin New York Times bestselling author

Muffin Top, a hot romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Avery Flynn is available now!

 

The only thing about me that’s a size zero is the filter on my mouth. I’ve got a big personality, a big rack, and a big number on the scale. And I’m perfectly fine with that.

But when some random guy suggests I might not be eating alone if I’d ordered a salad instead of a hamburger I’m shocked silent, which is a feat, trust me.

That brings us to one sexy fireman named Frankie Hartigan. He’s hot. He’s funny… And he’s just apologized for being late for our “date” then glared at the fat-shaming jerk. Next thing I know, he’s sitting down and ordering himself dinner.

I have no problem telling him I don’t need a pity date . . . unless of course it’s to my high school reunion next week. Oops where did that last bit come from? And what do I do now that he’s said yes?!

Because this is no make-over story, and I think Frankie is using me for something. I just have to figure out what…

About Avery

2W4A0911.jpeg

USA Today bestselling romance author Avery Flynn has three slightly-wild children, loves a hockey-addicted husband and is desperately hoping someone invents the coffee IV drip.
She fell in love with romance while reading Johanna Lindsey’s Mallory books. It wasn’t long before Avery had read through all the romance offerings at her local library. Needing a romance fix, she turned to Harlequin’s four books a month home delivery service to ease the withdrawal symptoms. That worked for a short time, but it wasn’t long before the local book stores’ staffs knew her by name.
Avery was a reader before she was a writer and hopes to always be both. She loves to write about smartass alpha heroes who are as good with a quip as they are with their *ahem* other God-given talents. Her heroines are feisty, fierce and fantastic. Brainy and brave, these ladies know how to stand on their own two feet and knock the bad guys off theirs.
