About this series
A 2026 Audie Awards finalist for Best Romance!
"Wesleigh Siobhan is a master at conveying both humor and sexual tension." —Ali Hazelwood, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Love, Theoretically
Nina Ford doesn’t like to put all her eggs in one basket. She works multiple jobs, she enjoys multiple hobbies, she dates multiple men.
In her thirty years of life, Nina has never come across a man who has all the things she’s looking for.
She loves fun and excitement—and she has a man for that.
She loves confidence and humor—and she has a man for that.
She loves intelligence and ambition—and she has a man for that.
She loves passion and romance—and she has a man for that.
She’s always been content rotating a few men in and out of her life to get her needs met. But when Russell Long, her designated “Fun Guy”, shows her that he’s good for more than just thrills, it seems too good to be true. Nina finds herself in a predicament.
She's found everything she's ever wanted in a career in one job.
She's found everything she's ever wanted in a partner in one man.
Inevitably, her eggs are bound to get cracked.
Like her back.
A Macmillan Audio production from Bramble Books.

Bridget Jones’s Diary meets Survival of the Thickest in Danielle Allen’s CURVY GIRL SUMMER, a smoking-hot, hilarious novel about the perils of online dating. “There’s got to be an easier way than dating. I want the shortcut. I just want to find my person and start our lives together.” After a one-night stand with her clingy ex, Aaliyah James has an epiphany: this ain’t it. She knows what she wants, and she’s ready to move past casual hookups, flings, and situationships. But for her family, the clock is ticking—after all, she’s almost thirty. And when they imply that her personality (and her body) might be too big to land a man, she lets them know they’ve gone too far—and her (nonexistent) man loves her curves, thank you very much. Now, she has seven weeks to find the perfect boyfriend to rub in their faces at the big, fancy birthday celebration she’s been planning. After her first blind date goes wrong, charming local bartender Ahmad Williamson consoles her with a drink and some playful banter. Aaliyah takes him up on his suggestion to use a dating app—but the more she sees of his warm, funny, and easygoing nature, the less she wants to check her DMs. Will her next swipe bring her closer to true love—or is her real match closer than she thinks?

I loved Nina and Russ boss lady who knows how to handle herself and Russ is a boss man who knows how to handle business. That’s what up. I thought Nina was a butterfly as much as her stomach flutter. Great read. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5

Ahmad and Aaliyah are a match made in comedic heaven. He’s not who she’s looking for as she rushes to find a suitable boyfriend by her 30th birthday. But what they both need has been staring them in their faces.
As a Danielle Allen fan, this is tough. She’s a phenomenal writer but this one doesn’t quite hit the mark. The prologue is grade A Danielle Allen writing, but the next few chapters dip into this repetitiveness that drags the story. It gleans toward a miscommunication trope that honestly feels more lack a of willingness to communicate trope instead. That is especially off-putting given how effectively the main characters communicate and how straightforward they are. We also didn’t get a wrap up on Marcus. I did enjoy the full-circle moments with the talks between Aaliyah and her parents and the come to Jesus meeting with her uncle. I wanted to love it and rate it higher even though it did get better in the end, but there were areas that needed reworking. Overall, Danielle writes beautifully, so the banter, sex scenes, and comedic relief delivered and Wesleigh’s narration was on point, per usual. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5
