Summary
The strongest bodybuilder in Emerson isn’t a match for my focus。
Emerson Dance is one of the most prestigious dance companies in the country。 And I got kicked off the team right before nationals because my curves don’t “fit。” Not their idea of a perfect dancer's body and definitely not their costume。
I’m going to enter the competition on my own and show them that every body is a dancer’s body。 It will mean practicing in the gym with the bodybuilders， but I can shove my nerves - and my attraction to Carter McCormac – aside long enough to win。
My reputation， and my future， depend on it。

I am loving the development and progress this series has come。 The writing quality is beautiful and stunning。 I have many highlighted quotes that have really spoken to my core and I love how it is written with great and true emotion。 What I love about these tales are that every story features a different problem and the solutions aren't all the same。 It deals with real life issues that most girls experience and how these can be resolved with the power of friendship， family and self-love。 I loved I am loving the development and progress this series has come。 The writing quality is beautiful and stunning。 I have many highlighted quotes that have really spoken to my core and I love how it is written with great and true emotion。 What I love about these tales are that every story features a different problem and the solutions aren't all the same。 It deals with real life issues that most girls experience and how these can be resolved with the power of friendship， family and self-love。 I loved how this story focused on dreams， committment and focusing on the end goals but also on creating new focus and dreams in your life and how to balance it all out。I believe Carton and Adriel's story was a beautiful tale of sacrifices， family love， loyalty and commitment。 Received an e-ARC copy from the author herself for an honest review and this does not affect my review or rating of this book， thank you！ 。。。more

Curvy Girls 2。0 book 7！ I’m so glad that this series is still continuing。 Cori and Ryker are still big parts to this book but this one is about Adriel and Carter。 Adriel is a dancer and has been all her life。 Unfortunately this book opens with a costume malfunction that ends up with Adriel being kicked out of the dance studio。 Dance teachers scare me honestly。 You never really hear anything good about them。 Carter is a bodybuilder that has noticed Adriel before but finally decides to talk to her Curvy Girls 2。0 book 7！ I’m so glad that this series is still continuing。 Cori and Ryker are still big parts to this book but this one is about Adriel and Carter。 Adriel is a dancer and has been all her life。 Unfortunately this book opens with a costume malfunction that ends up with Adriel being kicked out of the dance studio。 Dance teachers scare me honestly。 You never really hear anything good about them。 Carter is a bodybuilder that has noticed Adriel before but finally decides to talk to her when she starts weight training at her stepdads gym。 He’s a super nice guy and wants to help Adriel by dancing with her。 I really enjoyed the chemistry between these two from the start and how well Carter fit in with her friends。 To be honest though this wasn’t my favorite story in this series。 It did have some deep topics though with adoption， stepparents， infidelity， health issues and more。 These books are so realistic in that sense that you can always some how relate to them。 I do love that these come with bonus scenes at the end like extended epilogues because I always love knowing about the future of characters！ 。。。more
