Take Me

Written by Bella Andre

Narrated by Grace Grant and Ian MacLaren

A plus-sized woman finally gets the man of her dreams in this sexy contemporary romance from New York Times bestselling author Bella Andre.

Lily Ellis has curves—soft, beautiful curves. The kind of voluptuous body she fears Travis Carson, the man she's always loved from afar, would never crave. But Lily is about to be proved wrong. Her adventure begins when the demure San Francisco interior decorator agrees to model a plus-size dress for her fashion designer sister. Watching this sensual beauty move down the runway, Travis can't believe it's the same Lily he's always known—and always rejected. In a whirlwind of electric attraction, Lily is soon moaning Travis's name in his bed, not just in her wild fantasies. But Lily is all too aware that she's nothing like his past lovers.

Determined to beat Travis at his own game by guarding her true feelings, Lily partners with him on a business deal that takes them all the way to Italy. In the seductive warmth of the Tuscan sun, Lily plays a game of desire with the hot-blooded Travis. Will she be burned by an all-consuming ecstasy or will Travis open his heart to the sexy, exciting, and lasting love she has to offer?

Insecure chubby heroine and plenty of angst. Ignore the skinny cover model. (3.5 stars)

This book surprised me. I really did not expect much, but this is a perfect summer read. As a matter a fact, you can read it any time, colorful descriptions of Tuscany will transfer you to the sunny Italy... where Travis will learn to love & Lily will learn to love herself..

I really enjoyed this story. I can relate and appreciate a heroine that needs to overcome her insecurities and learn to be comfortable with herself before she can fully love another.

First novel for Bella Andre. I read this book some time ago and recently purchased it since it is a book that had some steamy scenes that are worth reading again!

Romance is not my usual genre but this book blew me away - I loved it - it had it all! Heart-fluttering romance, steamy sex, self-realization and family ties, complete with the allure of Tuscany. And now nice to have a real-life, size 16 main character!TAKE ME is well written - it captured me from the first page and I was driven to keep reading as long as I could without putting it down. The strong character development helped me connect with each character so intensely that I felt like each event was happening to me in my own life. It was very easy to get drawn deeply into the book until the very end, which, I might add, was wonderful.What a fantastic read on so many levels!

Loved it. I don't normally read erotica or romantica. It was a pleasant surprise. I liked the characters and how they evolved. Nice description of places too.
