Curve Proposition

Rate this book
Amber Rice has never had the big O, ever, which is why her friends decide to send her to a ridiculously handsome massage therapist who supposedly helps with this sort of thing. Unfortunately for her, the rumors about Sam and his ‘extra services’ aren’t true at all. Not that Sam is going to let the sweet, plus-size virgin just run off without a trace. Not a chance.

He’s more than happy to deliver just what the shy cutie is looking for—and so much more.

This is Book #3 in the Hot Insta Ever-Afters Collection, a series of (some very) dirty lil’ novellas for the busy reader looking for: 1) alphalicious heroes & curvalicious heroines, 2) a few smiles w/ their steam, and 3) no-wait, no-drama insta ever-afters.

Curve Proposition was a read-in-one-sitting, deliciously sexy, InstaLove treat!

Amber is a shy and timid, curvaceous beauty. Sam is a massage therapist with a satisfaction guaranteed reputation.

The two meet and it is on! The sparks fly and they are unable to resist the attraction between them. They fall hard and fast and their happily ever after is sexy sweet.

TBR this fantastic little read and enjoy it in one sitting just like I did!

A short and steamy read that has Amber going to get a massage and hopefully something more when her sister in law and friend persuade her. Sam, the masseuse, is hot hot hot and when she accidentally drops the signal that she wants more, Sam is infuriated but is willing to give Amber special treatment....and so much more.
A quick steamy read with insta everything but I was missing something, such as an epilogue or the Queen bully getting a taste of her own medicine with seeing the two of them together or a bit of Sam’s POV, to get what he was really thinking and feeling. Otherwise a good read which I liked, with good characters and I liked that Amber’s insecurities wasn’t over done and no drama between the two.

THOUGHTS

This was cute, sweet and sexy rolled into one. This was a quickie read, but you can't help but want to see Amber get her guy in the end. Sam is a physical therapist, known as Slow Hand Sam and he doubles your pleasure and doubles your fun. Amber is still a virgin and with the suggestion from her sister in law and friend, she visits Slow Hand Sam.

As you get to follow Amber on her awkward yet exciting journey, she is awaken sexually by Sam. But being a plus size woman she wonders if his intentions are good. And believe me when I say, Sam is worth the read.

I enjoyed reading Slow Hand Curves.A nice short read about a woman named Amber with curves who is a virgin, and goes to Sam to get an orgasm but gets so much more. It was a sweet erotic and romantic book. I love the ending, it was full of promise of what the future could be for them with Sam going to court Amber.

Can't wait for more of Christa Wick's books, she is a awesome author.

I wish

She wasn’t ohhhh so down on herself. That part irked me. Like this is Dallas not LA. And in college she could have at least dated. But anyway it is what it is and Sam was all kinds of sweet and adorable and precious

Easy and entertaining read

Curve Proposition is the third book in the Hot Insta Ever-Afters series. It is the story of Amber and Sam and is an insta-love with a sweet HEA. This is a nicely written, fast-paced novella with some hot and heavy sexy scenes. While I was entertained by the story I found the easily spotted proofreading errors to be annoying. But if you ignore those then this is an entertaining and fun read.

I received a copy of this book and am leaving my honest review. My opinions are all my own.

I received a copy from BookSprout; this is my honest review
-It starts with many LOL moments with Amber and her friends Bree and Melinda. The first scene in the restaurant is so silly and and funny I almost fell off my chair.
-My thought was that Sam was really unprofessional for what he did with Imogene then again with Amber, at his workplace of all places.
-I thought Amber was quick in getting Sam into her pants since she's known him all of 5 minutes, then they did the deed that evening.
-The story is still sweet and better than the other ones. The editing put me off track many times while I was reading, though. It's light and funny if you put that aside.
-At some point the author forgot that Amber's panties are already in Sam's pocket not on the table: "He peeled my wet panties off, pocketing them" "he gathered my panties, which had been sitting on the table".
-I tried to do this myself but it seems impossible: "One eye on the rear mirror the other on me".
-Editing: missing words all over the place: "running into (her) today was". Wrong phrasing: "felt his hands gently pull ease the robe off". Too many words: "could taste the my juices" "about the all the". Homonyms: "wile we made our way" - while "life through my way" -threw. Wrong words: "the deep circular both we were seated" - booth "bolding going after" - boldly "was wanting me to" -wanted.

Christa Wick does it again

Plus sized beauty Amber has never had the big “O” and her sister-in-law and her best friend are determined to fix that. They arrange for her to get a “massage” from a man that is rumored to have helped others in her situation. She’s leery and embarrassed, until she runs into the Mean Girl in their town. Now she’s stuck, go through with it or have to face ridicule.

Hunky message therapist Sam is just that, a massage therapist, nothing more. His first sight of Amber has him planning their future. He even nicknames her Hollywood. But when she hands him the token indicating her wanting the Full Service, he’s horrified. Seems the Mean Girl is spreading lies about him and his services. But he has other plans for the future mother of his children.

Yes Yes Yes I loved this story. It was so cute and sweet with some steam as the icing on a good cake. Good gracious, Sam was such a southern gentleman with a whole lot of dirty. He was yummy perfection. My only complaint was the book was short but who cares because what was there was perfection. Amber was refreshing. She was somewhat unsure about herself but not annoyingly so. She was more adorably cute about it. I love Christa Wick’s books. Until next time y’all happy reading.

This quick read romance offers a wonderful blend of cuteness, heat, emotion, humor and sweetness. I really liked Amber and Sam and I felt their chemistry was practically tangible. The story is short but if you are like me, that is sometimes just what you are looking for. So, if you're looking for a book when time is limited, just need a quick influx of the feels to brighten your day and lift your mood or want a palate cleanser to recover from a book hangover, this fun, little read works very nicely. I am electing to post a candid review.

Money can't buy love....

Amber comes from a wealthy family but works hard for what she has. What she doesn't have is someone to give her the big "O". When it is suggested that she buy one, she plans on finding a way out of it. What she finds is that rumors are just that and money can't buy love but being herself can.

Sam was a massage therapist rumored to make women happy for a price. Amber was finished with college and working and she was the only one of her friends still a virgin so they set her up with an appointment with a special massage therapy. When Sam met Amber in his therapy room her bumbling mistake of the appointment turned into a fast, fun and exciting romance of love.

This was a steamy hot novella! Amber is just too cute so I can see why Sam really likes her. Their chemistry together is pretty explosive, and I love how sweet but yet assertive Sam is. This short story was entertaining, sexy and fun to read.

I received a free advanced review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving my fair and honest opinion.

Sam is rumored to give O's with his massages and Amber's friends talk her into giving him a try since it's never happened for her. The rumors aren't true but Sam delivers anyway and asks her out. This is an insta-love HEA that felt really short, but satisfying.

I received a free copy and this is my honest review.

I keep reading Christa Wick's books because it's pretty hard to find a actual BBW romance with no BDSM or werewolf in it. I just want to read slow and 'normal' love story, like this one. But again, too bad this story is so dang short. I want to read more!

I liked this story. It was really lovely. I liked the characters. I liked how they interacted with each other. Good female companionship. Amber and Sam were electric together. The sexual chemistry was off the charts.
I received this as an arc from booksprout and freely left this review.

Short, sexy and to the point. Wick is one of my favorites. Her heroines empower women with the message of what true beauty is and where can be found. Amber are proof that beauty resides within the heart. Curve Proposition takes an unconventional approach to romance with awe-inspiring results.
