Bioexpa Match #3
Haven & Scott
The year is 2100. Wise people marry by registering with Bioexpa Data Match. The matchmaking company has such a near perfect record that choosing your own mate is now considered tantamount to marrying a blood relative.
Haven Thomas is a beautiful, curvy, confident woman. She's immediately attracted to her gorgeous blond, husband. But her hopes for a happy union are dashed when she realizes that her new husband thinks she's fat. She has no choice but to go through the thirty-day probation period, but after that, she plans to walk away.
Scott Fields owns a restaurant that serves healthy food and is part owner of a gym. Finding himself married to a curvy woman could prove to be a promotional nightmare unless he finds a way to spin it. Then he meets Haven. It doesn't take him long to decide that she's perfect as she is. Now he just has to convince Haven to give him a second chance.

Picked this up because I was intrigued by its premise: a slightly future world in which people are matched (and immediately married!) to their "soul mate" by a social media company, with this book focusing on a gym and restaurant-owning former male model who gets matched to a zaftig woman. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of romance here, or even liking, between our two protagonists. Haven, who is chocolate-skinned, is immediately offended when she realizes that she's not white Scott's usual type, and puts off having sex with him even though she finds him attractive. She doesn't tell him her reasons for this, of course, because then they could have had a conversation and worked things out. So most of the book is basically Scott pressing for sex, Haven giving in a bit then turning him down, and then lots of annoying snipping back and forth. Scott is bossy and domineering and whiny, Haven's unforgiving and insecure, and the sex scenes are flatter than a pancake. I couldn't see any reason why these two would make for good roommates, never mind soul mates...

Unique spin on a favorite trope!
This was a short, entertaining read. I enjoyed the author's take on fated / soul mates but wish there was a bit more angst! Overall a fun quick read.

Excellent!!
I finished this book on 1 day. Very steamy and real. The characters were very relatable and life like. I would recommend the whole Bioexpa series.

Haven and Scott made such a good couple. I really enjoyed watching them grow as a couple. Haven was hurt during their first meeting, and held on to it for awhile. It got quite annoying though. Scott judged Haven before he met her and that almost costed him his marriage. He had to work extra hard for Haven's forgiveness. Very entertaining book. Really enjoying this series.

Another great read. I love this series. Scott has the patience of a saint cause my girl Haven is super annoying. The man has gone out of his way to show his love and she still won't forgive him for being initially disappointed in her larger frame. 4 stars from me

Hmmmmm
The book is well written and edited. But these main characters were beyond silly and immature. I am so.over people confusing list and love. How are you calling in love with someone who doesn't speak to you and you know nothing about? So he doesn't like her body but because she is pretty he accepts her and that makes him less shallow? I understand that there needs to be some physical attraction but don't play it off as though one is ok when the other one isn't. One can change their body but it is a lot harder to change the face.....lol. Anyhow I don't think that I will be reading anymore of this series. Upset with myself now that I bought two in this series. Oh well, lesson learned.

A wonderful story that showed the development of the h/H’s love. This story took you on a smooth up and down ride of emotions. I enjoyed both MCs immensely and the secondary characters were great as well. Of the Bioexpa stories, this may have been my favorite mainly because I love a good grovel! Lol!

It's a Decent Quick Read
There are some clear typos, but nothing too distracting. It does avoid some romance cliches. Though the female character is Black, sometimes she doesn't read that way. It's not bad though. I would definitely read more from this author.

I enjoyed this story. At first, they both irritated me because they spoke upon their problems to everyone but each other. As they began to talk out their problems with their therapist, it became a great read.

Thayer King is quickly becoming a favourite author of mine. The reason for 3 stars? I wish the book was longer. I loved both Haven and Scott, he because he realised very quickly that he had acted like an ass. He realised first appearances wasn't everything ,and that everything about Haven was smart and sexy and worth getting to know better.
But I also loved that Haven stood her ground and didn't just drop her pants becasue he was a stud. She had him work for it. Please Ms king I love the series but please make the stories a little longer.

I enjoyed reading this book. I thought the characters could have been developed a little more and that a little more information about the matching service should have been added. As a BBW, I understand the hurt and pain that Haven felt. However, I'm glad that Scott finally realize that Haven was perfect as she was. Love can find you in unexpected packages.

This is a cute, sexy story. The protagonists played well off each other and there was good build-up and discussion of their issues before the HEA. Another good entry from Thayer King in this series. I can't wait for book 4.

I love all of Thayer's books especially the Bioexpa series. I was not disappointed with Haven & Scott's story no surprise there. Thayer has a fan for life.

2 1/2 because though I understood the conflict between Haven and Scott it kinda got on my nerves.

Awesome
I truly enjoyed reading this book. It really made you wish for a marriage hook up like this. Just wish the ending were a little longer.
