PLUS SIZE PLAYER features Social Media Fashion Model and Content Creator Nina Ford. We follow Nina's rise as a content creator, getting a traditional modelling contract with an upcoming inclusive fashion brand. Being plus size is just a fact about the vivacious, confident Nina who knows how to live life to the fullest. She doesn't let anyone give her shit about her being plus size, person of colour and being a fashion model. Her confidence and self-belief though are tested when the guy she's falling for turns out to be too close for comfort being associated with her new employer. Nina signs an exclusive modelling contract with RL Fashions and her content creation is suddenly limited to just one brand. In a twist of fate, the brand's owner turns out to be one of the guys she's been dating and falling for. Their love and loyalty to their professional commitments are tested and threatened. What follows is Nina, a player when it comes to dating, finding herself in hot water both personally and professionally.
 
Throughout the summer we see Nina and her boo falling for each other and rising to new heights in their professions too. What I enjoyed was the confidence of Nina, which comes naturally to her. It was not only the confidence of being plus size and modelling but a natural confidence in all aspects. The friendships Nina has with her girlfriends and her relationship with her parents, especially her mother are nothing short of life-affirming. The various relationships in the story are wholesome and add depth to this love story. 

I enjoyed PLUS SIZE PLAYER for its amazing heroine, supportive partner and fantastic friendships.

SUMMARY

Julie Murphy\'s If the Shoe Fits meets Talia Hibbert\'s Take a Hint, Dani Brown--USA Today bestselling author Danielle Allen brings another steamy, witty novel about finding the perfect partner--and how sometimes what you\'re looking for is right in front of you.

“I only spend time with people I enjoy. I only do things I want to do. I only have sex with people who get me off. So, my time is never wasted and my energy stays high.”

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 an opportunity presents itself, Nina finds herself in a bit of a predicament. Because if everything she’s ever wanted in a partner collides with everything she’s ever wanted in a career, her eggs are bound to get cracked.

Like her back.
