Wow! This story keeps getting better. This is the third installment of the Curves Envy serial and it picked up right where part two left off.

Candy is having a hard time adjusting to her new life. She is living it up in Brazil and Miami at fashion shows, having seriously hot sex with a gorgeous, wealthy man, and being interviewed by CNN. But she is still insecure.

Max is a man who gets what he wants, when he wants it. And he wants Candy.

“We’re talking about Maimiliano Keller. What Max wants, Max gets, and right now he wants you, love.”

I really enjoyed this installment. It had some drama moments and it was downright sinful. That SUV scene – holy hell! I cannot wait for the fourth and final installment to get some answers and see if Candy gets her HEA in the end. ~ Tiffany, 4 stars

Down and Dirty - Daring and Diabolically Sexy and full of everything we have come to expect from our Scarlett. As usual - things heat up between our main characters as they swing into deeper feelings and super hot sexy romps. Is Max really captivated by Candy and her curvy body? Looks like it but she feels uncomfortable when faced with the competition of super-sexy curvaceous models at a shoot - she tests Max's feelings and pays his price for doubting him. She talks frankly about her family tragedy and opens up to him about her insecurities and plans some time away from him - not a good move. He pushes her boundaries to see where he can take her and is surprised by her reactions. Candy gets a surprise delivery at work and there we have our next cliffhanger so typical of our beloved Scarlett - stand by for more - coming soon. Margaret Smith Review.xxoo

Holy smokes and cheese (Batman), could Max get any naughtier? Max is the older experienced guy to Candy's younger virtually inexperienced woman. Max makes it impossible for her to go back to her norm. He is demanding but challenges Candy to push her limits. Max and Candy's characters fit together like two really good puzzle pieces. Max the self assured business man who knows who he is and what he wants. While, Candy's character is in full discovery mode. The most important lesson she's learning is that she is worthy of the admiration of a nice but naughty guy. I'm glad the author took the time to focus on self esteem issues and body image with this serial. Though a smoking hot read its good to see the short, plump, big boobed pretty girl win. Can't wait to Candy meet up with her skank cousin in the next installment.

Max and Candy...

I so want a Max in my life....he's so deliciously alpha so incredibly sexy. Candy really is written in a way that I can relate to her and picture myself in her position...her insecurities are well written and believable. Scarlett does it again. I was so in shock with the details of Candy...I just wanted to hug her.

Another great read I can't wait for book four!!!

"Max is the lover I've always dreamed of. This afternoon's kinky escapade has robbed me of my strength, my will, my speech and I can only shudder in his arms in response. God save me. I think I'm falling for him."


WOW! WOW! WOW! If part 2 wasn't steamy enough part 3 knocked it out of the park! The story has moved to a new level of kinkiness and I can't wait to see what happens next in part 4. There is another cliffhanger that leaves us with some concern but nothing I'm sure our hero billionaire can't fix.

Part 2 left off with Max and Candy almost being discovered in the now infamous "Fashion Archive room". Lucky for them the person who was going to enter the room was distracted by another co-worker.

Now in Maimi, Candy is working on her article at a plus size model photo shoot, while continuing to fight with her insecurities. She does find some redemption when she finds herself being interviewed for CNN.com's Living section.

Max and Candy continue their secret steamy relationship and it's hotter than ever. When a plus size model gets a little to close to Max, Candy insecurities prompted her to act like a hothead. Alpha Max doesn't take it well, oh no he doesn't take it well at all. Hint: more hot, steamy action.

The ending leaves us with a concerning cliffhanger. Part 4 will be the final installment in this hot, steamy, erotic series.

OMG!!!
Max is going to send me into a heavenly bliss. The backseat of the car....sweet Lord have mercy!

I like the pace of the story. While i may not be the biggest fan of serials this story (and all from Scarlett) have kept me coming back. The new characters that we are introduced to (Deidra, Giovanna, Brian, and Josie) i frigging LOVE!! I am glad that Candy has a support team away from her core people (well a group that she can let loose with). I did miss Devin, Lia, and Lexi though. I want to kill Bruna and Maleficent. Why are they so extra?!?! Jesus take that wheel! But all in all Miami was fun and the archive is always a great get away, lol.
The end floored me! Who is this mystery person. What really happened to Candy's parents? Why is Trish such a b*tch?
Can't wait til book 4!!

Moving right along . . .

This third installment of this serialized story brings Max and Candy to new realizations about their attraction for one another and also seems to make Candy even more aware of the fact that her insecurities are not really going away. Grief over the loss of her parents and grandparents continues to plague her, although she has made positive changes in her life and she is slowly becoming more confident of her relationship with Max. But she hates all this sneaking around. This is a continuing story that many BBW will understand and to which they can easily relate. I really don't like cliffhangers but thanks to Amazon Prime I can enjoy this series without spending a ton of money.

Ohhhhh........ smexy, hot oh my! The story continues with a tryst in the car. Candy shares stories from her past, and the smexyness continues, spare panties needed, please don't read on the bus ;) Candy struggles with her size and the models at a photoshoot at a mega mansion always feeling inadequate, there is no way she's right for Max but of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder and Max has different idea, all he sees is smexyness in this curves woman. And yet again we are left on another cliff......this writer is stopping my heart, I can't cope! No more I need to breathe!! Oh so pantie ripping!

ARC given in exchange for an honest review

Holy hotness. I really enjoyed this book. This book picks up from the 2nd one and it gets even better. The story has more involved and Max & Candy's chemistry between the two gets even hotter, steamier and oh so good.

Candy takes the trip down to Miami to be with Max's company and also do an article. While visiting Miami some things happen and Candy takes off. Max is furious and boy does he have a plan. Things heat up and issues arises...you have to read to see how it plays out.

Great job to the author on another amazing story. I look forward to more. I highly recommend this book/series.

Four Boldly Suspenseful Stars

Wow book three takes us on a wild trip to Miami to a plus size photo shoot. Candy and Max are really heating up the sheets. Their sexy story is turning into quite the love story. Candy breaks down and tells Max about the death of her parents and grandparents. There is lots of mystery surrounding their deaths. At the end we read Candy gets a mysterious letter from A.K.A Annie Smith will she tell Max or try to solve this all on her own. Dangerous......

P.S. I get so tickled when this author uses unusual sex terms. This is my favorite in this book. "He is rubbing my engorged node (clit)." Node sound like sex on the Star Trek Enterprise. I LOVE IT!!!

I'm done with this author. While she rights fine but her books end just when they are getting good. The next book doesn't pick up right were it leaves off and a little confused I'm fine with the occasional cliff hanger but not the soap opera kind.

Amazing, Scarlett did it again. The story between Max and Cindy is one of the best I have read in a long time. I love the humor, then the steamy sex scenes. Max and Cindy are by far one of my favorite book couples. I can't wait to see what happens next! Come on book 4!!

More awesomeness

The story goes on........ and it’s great.

I could have said a lot but I think I’m going to save it for the last book in this series.

This is book 3 of 4 and if it hadn’t been for the cliffhanger I would have given it 5 stars 🌟

Candy embarks on her first trip for Max's company. She's surrounded by plus size models, meets Deidra (Max's co-worker, long time friend and a lesbian), plus a couple other models and another journalist from CNN who wants to do a feature on her.

Big drama occurs at the after party where a slutty supermodel throws herself at Max in front of the paparazzi and media. Candy is pissed and then gets drunk with the friendly models. The Max is pissed, they have makeup sex, Max declares that he wants more than lusty liaisons and Candy tells him about the tragic deaths of her parents and family.

Then it's a cliffy when she gets a mysterious letter from an unknown person who claims to know her father and questions the circumstances around his death. Hmm. Hard to really review a multi-part serial. Drama isn't too dramatic, but this is erotica and not for the faint of heart!

Candy and Max's story continues... A trip to Miami picks up on the plane after the close call in the work archive room, Candy feeling confused and wanting more, the trip to Miami opens her eyes to embrace herself as a curvy woman and open to wanting and having more with Max. She gets the wrong impression and almost misses Max's attempt to move things to the next level in their relationship. Candy opens up to Max and we hear the full story of her parents death. Accepting herself and Becoming Max's girlfriend gives her a boost of confidence and she even stands up against her cousin who had put her down on many occasions.

This story was much better... It had more to offer in terms of a story line and although there were raunchy sex scenes the story wasn't all about it. I skimmed the sex which would explain why I found it wasn't as all consuming lol

All I can say is the room where the Fashion Archives are kept is XXX Rated. Give thanks the door has a lock!

By now Max and Candy cannot stay away from each other. It is high time they let their secret out because when those two are in close proximity, anything around will automatically combust from the heat they generate!

Things are getting serious between these two. Candy needs to finally believe Max is serious. Girl, this man has spent more money in ripped panties than the bottles of Dom Perignon you two are guzzling down.

It is now time for the final twist in the plot... the death of Candy's parents... was it really an accident?

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Max and Candy are continuing to have the hottest sex ever, in every imaginable place and position! But regardless of how often they're together, or the sweet things Max says, she just can't fully accept in her heart that he wants her and isn't ashamed of her. Our culture has pounded it into our psyches that good looking, wealthy, successful men only want waif-like super model women. Candy's having a hard time believing that isn't true for Max.

I'm hoping Max is sincere and will be able to convince her of it in the next installment. I really want Candy to get the HEA she deserves with the man of her dreams!

Holy Hotness...the Queen of Sexxxxy has done it again!! I think this might be my fave story, yet! Although, all of Scarlett's books are incredible! Curvy BBW Candy and Max are taking hot and steamy to a whole new level and I just can't wait to see how it all ends! I normally don't like novellas that end in cliff hangers, but I have to say I'll be purchasing anything that Scarlett Avery writes!

High drama and hotness 🔥🔥🔥💋

Candy is still very insecure but you really connect with her journey. Love the attention to the little details, both for the location and wardrobe. Max is his usual alpha self but he's very giving too. I can't wait for next installment.
