★Moher, Laura. Curves for Days. Sourcebooks Casablanca. (The Galway Series, Bk. 1). Aug. 2023. 336p. ISBN 9781728278056. pap. $16.99. CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE
DEBUT  Alice Rose Barnes has spent the last 16 years alone, unable to trust anyone after a traumatic high school experience. Then she wins the lottery, and suddenly people she barely knows are calling and banging on her door. Desperate for peace and frightened for her safety, Alice runs away, eventually landing in Galway, NC. Using the name Rose, she begins to make friends and build a life there, all while hiding the fact that she’s now a multimillionaire. When she employs grumpy carpenter Angus Drummond to do extensive renovations on her new house, she doesn’t realize how much he’s going to change her life. Angus is happy to have finally found someone who is open and honest, with no pretenses or secrets—except Rose does have a secret. The protagonists of this opposites-attract, enemies-to-lovers romance are authentic and relatable. Their sexual tension is instant, and the slow burn of their relationship realistic. Rose’s past trauma is revealed gradually and is treated sympathetically, as is Angus’s (and other military veterans’) mental health issues. VERDICT Readers will love the banter between Rose and Angus and cheer them on as they slowly build their relationship.—Heather Miller Cover
 
 

Lovely review from Apple Books (Debut Picks):

"Take a trip to a charming North Carolina town in this compassionate and uplifting romance. Since Alice Rose Barnes won 80 million dollars in the lottery, her quaint and quiet life has been flipped on its head. Bombarded by everyone she’s ever met, including old high school bullies, the fiercely independent plus-size beauty leaves everything behind and heads south—going by her middle name to preserve her anonymity. She ends up in a charming town named Galway, where she befriends absolutely everyone and buys a lovely Victorian-style home, but her life gets thrown for another loop when she meets her gentle giant of contractor: the kind yet grumpy Angus Drummond, who may or may not be the love of her life. But will Angus’ feelings change when he finds out who she really is? We were captivated by author Laura Moher’s ability to weave through Rose and Angus’ slow-burning relationship—culminating in some seriously sultry (and incredibly body-positive) bedroom scenes that made us blush. If you’re looking for a story that’s full of hope, heart, and Southern charm, look no further than this dazzling debut."
