Big Girls And Bad Boys #2
The Beast Loves Curves
After being cruelly and brutally dumped by her boyfriend for being overweight, computer programmer Abbie Wright has sworn off of men. The relationship had left her raw and wounded, crushing her already fragile self esteem. The last thing she needs is to work a special project for millionaire client, Ian Campbell. His previous employees call him “the beast” because of his difficult personality and the trials that his employees have to deal with in having him for a boss. Just what Abbie needs…having her spirit crushed by an ogre of a client. It was an assignment she couldn’t turn down…but she dreaded it. Abbie doesn’t know that she is in for a pleasant surprise when Ian turns out to be one of the finest men she has ever known. He nudges his way into her heart, but Abbie has a past and she knows a man like Ian would never want a plus sized woman like her. If she lets him get too close…he will destroy her completely.
Ian Campbell was still recovering from a near fatal racing accident that had left him scarred and almost taken his life. Determined to open a new charity foundation, he wants the best website for his foundation and he’s seen Abbie Wright’s work. He wants her for his project. After he meets her in person and gets to know her intelligent, smart, sweet and witty personality, he wants her for much more than his project. He lusts for her full figured body and is addicted to her company. The problem is…
Abbie won’t give him a chance. She spurns his advances and has no interest in taking their budding friendship any further, but Ian has fallen and he has fallen hard. He’s not sure if he can stand to let Abbie go. As Ian and Abbie struggle through their misunderstandings and insecurities, they will find out if two broken people can end up being a perfect match.

A very sweet story, both Abbie and Ian are lovely.
But it's too short, their story would have been a great novel.

A couple of friends have stood by him. When he sees a charity that he believes in he wants to set a website up to help raise money. Only the best will do for his website.

This was a cute short erotic romance between a millionaire and a plus size girl. As a plus size girl myself, this is a unmarried girls dream. Cute millionaire comes on to me and wants me forever :). The story really shows, we all have insecurities and things we don't like about ourselves. The trick is to over come them. Abbie and Ian are relatable and there story is very sweet.Not a book with a deep plot or complex characters but a good make you feel good read. The book is a erotic so for adults only. I only wish it was longer!

Oh 4.5 stars max! Ian loved him, how sweet, sexy and wanting for someone to fall in love with him and not his money. Oh how cute was that! Abbie, I truly understand not getting close to no man, because on the way her ex did to her and spoke to her on how she looks. I know what she went through, been there done that. But Ian was falling for her, but she didn't think that he wanted her. My heart was breaking for him; wanting something, needing someone and that person was not returning his love. Aww, he just broke my heart, I wanted to cry for him and to tell him come here papa, I'll love you. He was a cutie patutie. A least at the end Abbie woke up when finally her girlfriend had to give her a piece of mind. This book was short, I must confess that I did wanted to be a little longer; Bravisimo to J.S. Scott very well written. Please keep them coming.

This was a great story by a great author. J.S. Scott has an amazing way of telling a story that is both sweet and sexy. I love this series and can not wait to read more of it. This was a great story of Ian and Abbie. It's a story about finding true love and the one person you love more than anything else.

I really love a short, beautiful story ♥
I'm so tired of all romance novels cliche: the girl should be all skin-and-bones and looks like supermodel, and the guy should be a hot and handsome billionaire.
That's bullshit! Because nobody's that perfect in reality.
But this book is realistic. Love isn't always born just because you're physically attractive and super rich. Most of the time, the most beautiful love is born from the imperfect people, because how you accept each other the way they are is what makes your love perfect.
And that's what this book shows us. Really love this! ♥

5 Star Kindle Unlimited Short Read
Read as part of the Big Girls with Curves box set. This is the best in the series. I love the way it highlighted insecurities from both the male and female POV. It goes to show that even the hottest men have doubts. Also, that it is hard for women to let go of past hurts.

I bought this in a boxed set. The stories so far by this author are light hearted romances about an under dog of sorts finding her other half. Abbie designs web pages and is sent on assignment to mans house reported to be a real SOB to work for. She very early in discovers that Ian is easily the kindest, funniest man shes ever met. I wish the author would write her heroins with a bit more spunk. She's a curvy girl which is the basis of all the books in the set I got. While I enjoy reading about the not so normal girl I think it's important to make her strong. Abbie is a woman who was dumped by her boyfriend because he was embarrassed by her size. I would have loved to see that played on a bit.
Ian AKA the beast is tired of being in superficial relationships. He now wears scars on the inside and out. His wants have changed and he thinks what he's been missing can be found with Abbie. She however does not think it's possible that a man as gorgeous as him can love a chubby girl like her. A cute couple who do appreciate and adore the other but I wanted to see her flaunt that new man and teach her ex how wrong he was. Enjoy!

To big girls with curves, this book is for you! As a BBW myself, I enjoy reading books where BBWs get the guy and find true love. Y’all are going to love this bad boy regardless of what size you are. This book has a terrific storyline; characters you’ll absolutely love; lots of foreplay; and one kickass HEA. Definitely put this one on your TBR list today! ❤️❤️

Um.
I want to say that I liked this book, because it was enjoyable in a visceral, shallow way. But I just can't, because it was pretty much the least fulfilling an enjoyable book can be. We start with the first meeting between our two lovers, then we skip to their final declarations of love, with no character development, not plot, nothing. We have to be told everything that happens via internal musing and character dialogue, and not at all in a subtle way.

Oh wow. What a lovely surprise to have a buxom curvy woman. Abbie is just that and sweet too. After being dumped by an idiot boyfriend. .Abbie is scared to love again. Now Ian loves curvy women but after his accident, he feels that no one will want him. This was 2 lost souls on my opinion coming together (forgive the pun ). Absolutely brilliant story just loved it.

Wish it came sooner...
Quick read. Okay storyline. Not sure I how feel about falling for someone and needing them within a week. Wish the sex had come sooner and been more frequent. But it was free and not a bad way to spend 30 minutes.

At A Glance
Super short but super cute/sexy.
The Good
I like to read short erotica from time to time to mix things up and to get my fix. I am not looking for deep characters or complex plots. I just want to have fun and giggle at all the sex. The Beast Loves Curves did that for me.
I love when a big girl gets the hot guy. The story was super short but it got to the point. Abbie is getting over a bad breakup and Ian is getting over a bad racing accident. Together they find the connection they both crave.
The Bad
Even though I love a good short erotica read, this was REALLY short. And I wish there was more sex.
The Snuggly
This is so short we only get one sex scene. I know, sad face. It was sexy and tantalizing, though the hotness factor could have been amped up more.
Final Thoughts
Nothing special about this one but it is a fun, sexy, short read that will leave you smiling. Recommended.
Quotes
Abbie giggled. "I guess it's not a good thing that I put out before our first date." She didn't feel the least bit guilty. She felt like she had known Ian forever. "I think this is really putting the cart before the horse."

A sweet short read.
May 31, 2013
This was a great short story, both main characters had insecurities that almost ruined something that ends up being the best thing either one could ever ask for.
Ian is known by many for being a "beast" and a billionaire playboy, but it's whats under the facade that is important. Abbie is a single full figured woman who has just been dumped by her asshole of a boyfriend because he thinks she needs to lose weight. Ian hires Abbie to create a website for a charity he is planning on starting.
I must admit I LOVE Abbie's character, being someone who loves web design myself it was fun to read about a character with the same interest as I have. I highly recommend read any J.S. Scott book you can find, so far they have all been great reads.

I had the same problem with this whole series, so here is the copy/paste of the first review.
This book had GREAT potential, but it was squandered on being MUCH TO SHORT! This book needed to be a novella, at least. There should have been more build up to the BOOM. I liked that the heroine was BBW, and that the super sexy hero was in love with all the curves, but I wanted to see more of the push pull, the building tension. It was just too short for it to feel...satisfying.
