I liked this book, and Sarra Manning truly has a gift, but I had two qualms with this book. One - Neve's need for reassurance about her weight begins to get annoying in the latter stages of the book. However, just at the POINT I'm beginning to get annoyed, in steps Max, and his request for her to stop "self-deprecating." Now this is my second issue - Max. I think Neve calls him an "enabler" twice, and I couldn't agree more. He KNOWS Neve is struggling with her weight, yet he brings her bread slathered with high fat butter, and makes her gain five pounds. For me, "I don't care about your weight, I still love you" isn't romantic - it's what an enabler would say. He's a detriment to all the hard work she's put in. If he truly cared, he wouldn't encourage her to shove high fat food down her neck. I guess in theory, it sounds great - a guy will love you, whatever shape or size you are (especially when you're obese.) 
 But in reality? Those kinds of guys are dangerous. Just as much as people who criticize you for putting/losing a few pounds, and make you feel small. But I liked Neve/Max all the same and they were kind of perfect for each other. I just hope their HEA includes Neve not being down on herself all the time, and Max learning not to be such an enabler.
