Blurb:

Coming June 28th from Mimi Strong, USA Today Bestselling author of For You, Borrowed Billionaire, and Her Teddy Bear.

**She's a sassy bookstore manager, he's a famous actor. This Notting Hill-inspired New Adult romance is outrageous, funny, and full of SEX, SEX, SEX.** 

Peaches Monroe, age 22, is a plus-sized beauty who spends quiet days with books, in the small town of Beaverdale, Washington.

One Saturday afternoon, she's balancing precariously on a chair, in a bridesmaid dress, when a handsome dark-haired man comes running into the bookstore. He knocks Peaches over, she lands in his muscular arms. They lock gazes, and ...

She recognizes him.

As the sexy vampire heartthrob she watches on TV once a week.

Peaches and Dalton Deangelo are completely wrong for each other. He's only in town temporarily, working on an indie movie. She should stay away. He should stay away, too.

But they're drawn to each other. Dalton claims it's because they're made from the same stardust. He says a lot of dramatic things, but it's his carbohydrate-free perfect body and sexy touch that turns Peaches to Jell-O.



Julie says:

This is another amazing book by Mimi Strong.  She never fails to surprise me.  If you are looking for a book that will draw you in and also make you laugh, you have to check this one out!!

Petra (aka Peaches) met Dalton Deangelo in her bookstore, by accident really. Peaches has always been self-conscious of her body image, calling herself “pleasantly chubby”.   Dalton is a TV/Movie star working on a film in her hometown. Once Peaches lays her eyes on Dalton, she calls him her angel.  And fortunately he feels the same.

“You’re surrounded by light and goodness, and I want to bask in your arms,       be in your presence.” – Dalton

Peaches has a great attitude, and a lot of sass, and that draws him in even further.
She is used to being alone and when he asks her out, she is utterly shocked.  She feels no one could ever be serious enough to date her.  Their connection is remarkable and she starts to feel things she only dreamed about.

“Let’s just be two souls tonight.  Two souls who are made of stardust, and found their way back to each other, the way they were destined to be.” – Dalton

After bearing his secrets to her, she finds herself more drawn to him than ever.  Then, she is offered the job of a lifetime and finds herself wanting a new beginning, and possibly a life with Dalton.

Upon visiting Dalton, she learns more about him, along with some things that can affect her future.  Was Dalton playing her this whole time or can he seriously love her?


This book is one of those rare ones that will surprise you and you will be hooked.  I love the witty comments that Peaches can always seem to come up with.  Her attitude will leave you laughing.  I would rate this book 5 stars and can’t wait to read more of this story, and I can happily say, I am Team Peaches!!!

Bio:

Mimi Strong writes chick-lit, erotic romance, sex comedy, and new adult contemporary romance. Most of her characters have a strong sense of humor.

Here's what she has to say:

I've always had a lot of sides. Sometimes I'm vulnerable, and sometimes I go after what I want without a single doubt.

My favorite person is my husband. If I can crack him up and see his eyes crinkle at the corners, my day is made. In fact, I love making everyone around me laugh.

I've always enjoyed empowering stories about kick-butt women who don't hold back and the awesome men who are smart enough to love them. Now that I'm writing these stories, I couldn't be happier. I hope you enjoy them too!

Note: I also have a family-friendly pen name, (DALYA MOON), where you'll find MG and YA books, from fantasy to contemporary romance.
