Descripción: A sexy romance about a plus-size sweetheart who gets a full-life makeover after a brutal breakup and falls for the incredibly hot contractor renovating her home.Savvy Sheldon spends a lot of time tiptoeing around the cracks in her life: her high-stress and low-thanks job, her clueless boyfriend and the falling-apart kitchen she inherited from her beloved grandma—who taught her how to cook and how to love people by feeding them. But when Savvy’s world starts to crash down around her, she knows it’s time for some renovations.Starting from the outside in, Savvy tackles her crumbling kitchen, her relationship with her body, her work–life balance (or lack thereof) and, last but not least, her love life. The only thing that doesn’t seem to require effort is her ride-or-die squad of friends. But as any home-reno-show junkie can tell you, something always falls apart during renovations. First, Savvy passes out during hot yoga. Then it turns out that the contractor she hires is the same sexy stranger she unintentionally offended by judging based on appearances. Worst of all, Savvy can’t seem to go anywhere without tripping over her ex and his latest "upgrade." Savvy begins to realize that maybe she should’ve started her renovations the other way around: beginning with how she sees herself before building a love that lasts."A heartfelt, hopeful, and humorous exploration of the importance of learning to love yourself...a joy to read.” –Booklist, STARRED reviewReviewFEATURED ON TODAY.COMENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY – “MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2022”POP SUGAR – “54 Novels to Read When You Want a Romantic Escape”HUFFPOST – “Black Authors Share the Best New Books Celebrating Black Love And Joy”BOOK RIOT – "24 Interracial and Black Romance Books to Add to your TBR List in 2022"THE NERD DAILY – “24 Debut Releases To Get Your Hands On In 2022”NEWS 4 SAN ANTONIO – "February Book Picks: Love, laughter and literacy"“This feel-good, uplifting read is filled with positive messages about self-care and self-love.
