Book Review: A Fun and Romantic Story
Summary: 5 Stars
Maggie and Olivia have been the best of friends since they were twelve years old. Now as adults, Olivia has had gastric bypass surgery, lost a ton of weight, has a great job and is engaged to be married.
Maggie is left feeling like she doesn't fit into Olivia's life anymore. Her crazy landlady has given her the boot and is turning her guest house rental into a lap pool. Her mom is constantly on her about the way she lives her life and her phone isn't exactly ringing off the hook with date offers.
Maggie is determined to make changes in her life so she suits up, gets herself a personal trainer in hopes of losing her weight without surgery. As Olivia's maid of honor, Maggie is feeling the pressure to find a new place to live, get a new job, lose weight, find herself a boyfriend and to be happy with her life once and for all.
Liza Palmer has created an amazing main character in her debut novel. Maggie is very real and will appeal to readers. Her "issues" and low self-esteem is written and worked fabulously into a center point of the story and yet it's told in a humorous manor. Maggie makes for a terrific heroin that will have readers cheering.
