Marshmallow. Every kid gets a nickname. Marshmallow was mine. And like the squishie confectionary, it stuck. As did the extra pounds that inspired the nickname in the first place. But that was OK, the plus-size revolution gave me confidence in my curves. I learned to love my body and even show it off for the world to see. #bodypositive was my ticket to Insta-stardom. It was also what attracted … attracted him…
Carter Reeves. A model who graced the covers of several of my favorite romance novels. He messaged me with an opportunity. I couldn’t say no. Imagine my surprise when in the middle of a photo shoot, he pressed his lips to my ear and told me he wants to eat my marshmallow.
Holy
Mother
Of god
Carter Reeves wants me.
Me.
He has abs of steel and I have thighs of thunder. Is he serious?
Warning: this quick read contains over-the-top declarations, insta-love and molten hot moments between a curvy girl and a deliciously sinful man who’s even sweeter than the marshmallow he’s after.

Marsha is a plus size Instagram model who for the most part is body positivity. However, she is human and the haters can get her down.
Carter is the book model that we all have drooled over, especially Marsha so when Carter asks for her to model with him for a book cover, sparks fly.
I loved this fast little spin through the life of two Instagram models with the hots for each other. It was fast, fun, flirty, sexy, and dirty, but was a good reminder that when you see someone on social media, they are people and deserve respect. It was also a good reminder that IG beauty standards are unattainable and you can’t make everyone happy all the time, so just be yourself.
Awww, I absolutely adored this curvy girl romance. Something about Carter and Marsha was just spot on for me.
Marsha is an Instagram plus size model and the book even featured some of the actual hashtags that I’ve seen and used before. #effyourbodystandards Yessss! I was so excited when I saw that.
Carter is a hunky dude who models for romance book covers. Oh god, I can just imagine how fucking hot he is… drooling. I have literally drooled over some of these covers on books I’ve read so the idea of Carter as one of those dudes just got me all got and bothered.
The fact that someone like Carter wanted a plus size girl just hit home. I definitely connected to this story.. especially when Marsha kept thinking it could’ve been a prank and then eventually letting all the negative comments on social media get her down. And the way Carter stepped it up? Ugh, swoon!
The epilogues were perfect. I absolutely loved this one. So much.
This was a cute, super quick OTT read with a message of body positivity and a hot alpha. I hadn’t read a book by Megan Wade before and after reading Marshmallow I can say it’s taken me far too long to get here.
After reading a variety of romance books with all those swoon worthy book boyfriends and eye candy covers, this book gives the fantasy some life of maybe, just maybe, you could be whisked away by one of those dreamy men some day.
Well written and an all around fun read. I look forward to reading more in this series and from Megan Wade.
absolutely loved this quick filthy read. It really had all the feels. Instant love, heartbreak and angst and downright steaminess. I couldn’t help but love Carter ( what a sweetie) and Marshmallow was a strong character even in her vulnerability. Loved it.
I knew going in it was going to be short and sweet, so to the haters out there… what did you expect at only 72 pages? What I *LOVED* about this book is I really felt like Marsha was okay with her figure. So often, I’ll read a book about a curvy woman, and they will refer to themselves in terms that tell me they aren’t truly okay with how they look.
Sweet, steamy, and oh so good. Quick very read. Would make a fabulous full story. But good this way too.
If you’re looking for a book to pass maybe an hour, this is the book for you.
It’s insta-love, lust, and just all around as sweet as the name would suggest.
Marsha has finally learned to embrace her curvy plus size body. She’s become Insta-famous (on Instagram) because of her #bodypositive messages and photos she may post. She never expected she catch the eye of one of her favorite book cover models…
Carter Reeves may be known for gracing the cover of many romance novels. But this model is still looking for his own little bit of romance. However, the minute he spots Marsha, he knows she’s his and meant to be his sweet little marshmallow.
This was cute. Short, simple and to the point.

Marshmallow had a crush on Carter who modeled for romance books. Carter had a crush on Marshmallow. Carter was determined to make that BBW his forever. Fun and exciting

As a BBW, I could totally understand everything about Marsha. I even found myself in similar circumstances, only, I’m no model. However, that’s what makes many parts of this short story believable. There is some crazy insta-love in the story but even that works itself out. I definitely cheered all the way through for Marsha and Carter! I’d love to see them in another story.
This is the first book that I have read from this author and I really like it. It was a quick steamy read. Marsha and Carter were so good together. The chemistry between them was off the charts hot. This book had it all – romance, humor, steam and good body positivity. I will be reading more of her books.
