3.5 stars.

That Sexy Bartender - I liked seeing Brian show Chelsie how much he liked and admired her, and how he showed her that her thoughts about herself were not her own. Things happened very quickly between them but it worked for them. 3 stars.

That Ex-Best Friend - this quick read brings back together two best friends who had gone their separate ways, pasts are addressed and truths revealed. Their connection is still there after all that time, I liked seeing Connor make them face their pasts so they had a chance at a future together. 3.5 stars.

That Single Dad - this short story had likeable characters, good family and friends, it moved along well, although the ending did seem that everything happened at all at once. I liked seeing these two come together and the bond Jessie and Mia had. I would have personally liked to have seen more of their relationship developing and of the three of them together. 3.5 stars.

Curvy Girl Dates by Kate J. Blake is a fun collection of three quick, spicy romances that are perfect for a relaxing afternoon read. I loved the small-town setting, the likable characters, and the mix of humor, romance, and heat in each story. The curvy heroines are confident, relatable, and easy to root for, while the love interests bring plenty of chemistry to the pages. Each novella has its own storyline, but they all deliver the feel-good romance and happily-ever-after I enjoy. The stories are fast-paced without feeling rushed, making this a great choice when you want something light, entertaining, and steamy. Kate J. Blake does a wonderful job blending sweet moments with plenty of spice and laughter. Overall, Curvy Girl Dates is a collection definitely worth picking up!

This was a quick read, a collection of three separate stories. Three curvy women who meet their other halves, through work, travel and reuniting after time. Loving these shorts by this author and enjoy adding to my growing collection.

If you enjoy steamy romance with curvy heroines, lighthearted comedic moments, and a strong dose of heat — this collection is likely a good fit. It delivers on the promise of “rom-com with smut” in a compact package. On the other hand, if you lean toward novels with layered emotional journeys or extensive world-building, you might find it a bit surface-level.

Each one of these standalone romance books I could picture the characters in my head, and they had awesome storylines. Kate has done a wonderful job writing about these characters that you feel like you know each one of them personally. I give all of these books a perfect 5-star review and more.
