The second book in a laugh-out-loud new contemporary romance series from Alison Bliss!
Big girls don't cry. They go after what they want.
Thanks
to her bangin' curves, Valerie Carmichael has always turned heads-with
the exception of seriously sexy Logan Mathis. Just Valerie's luck that
the object of her lust-filled affection is also best friends with her
overprotective brother. But Valerie's determined to get Logan's
attention . . . even if it means telling a teeny little lie to get a job
at his new bar.
Logan can't remember a time when Valerie didn't
secretly fuel all his hottest fantasies. Now the curvaceous she-devil
is working behind his bar, tempting him every damn night. It's only when
he finds Valerie's naughty things-to-do list that Logan decides to
break every rule in the book-by making each red-hot deed a reality.
No
one warned them that they were going to fall this hard. And no one
warned them that sometimes the smallest secrets can have the biggest
consequences.

Review:
On the Plus Side is the second novel in Alison Bliss’s A Perfect Fit
series and this time features the previously introduced character
Valarie and the man she has secretly wanted for years.
Valarie
Carmichael has always had feelings for her older brother Brett’s best
friend. As a teenager, her crush seemed unreciprocated and unattainable,
especially when the man in question left town without a word and has
only just returned after eight years. Logan was the only man Valarie’s
sexy curves and vibrant personality wasn’t able to win, but the years
apart haven’t changed the way he makes her feel. Logan Mathis has
returned to his hometown of Granite, Texas in the hopes of saving his
mother’s home that is about to be foreclosed on. The plan is simple;
open a bar and make enough money to get her out of trouble. He certainly
wasn’t expecting Valarie to ignite a different kind of trouble in his
life…..Logan has always forced himself to avoid acting on the raging
attraction he feels for his best friends little sister, but Valarie
isn’t a little girl anymore. Beautiful, mouthy and determined, Valarie
makes him burn hotter than ever before. Getting involved with her may be
a bad idea but as the two find themselves working together at Logan’s
bar, they’re about to discover that neither can deny what simmers between
them….
On the Plus Side is another fun and flirty
contemporary romance from Alison Bliss. As with the first novel, On the
Plus Side features likable characters, funny dialogue and plenty of
sensual and saucy moments between the love interests that bring the
romance to life. Unfolding in the varying POV’s of main characters
Valarie and Logan, On the Plus Side offers readers a well-rounded story
with plenty of entertaining moments.
Valarie was a
confidant and capable young woman. I appreciated that Alison Bliss wrote
her comfortable in her own skin and didn’t focus too much around what
she weighted, unlike previous main character Leah who had a lot of
insecurities where her weight was concerned. Logan too was a solid male
lead and I thought he and Valarie were sexy and thrilling together.
A
solid read from beginning to end, On the Plus Side was another
enjoyable contemporary romance. I’m hoping we have a chance to see
Valarie’s brother Brett feature in a story down the track and am looking
forward to seeing Max star in the next instalment!
