Isabella Louise Anderson is on tour now with CLP Blog Tours and The Right Design
Summary:
Interior designer Carrie Newman could not have envisioned a more perfect life for herself. She had a great job doing what she loved, wonderful friends, and a close relationship with her sister and brother-in-law. Add in an amazing man who she’d hoped would soon become her husband, and her life was perfect. Until one devastating decision ruins her relationship and changes the course of her life.
Determined to make a new start, Carrie leaves Texas and heads to Palm Beach to pick up the pieces of her shattered and broken life. The last thing she expects is to find herself attracted to her first client at her new job—Brad Larson, who has proven himself time and time again to be caddish.
But there’s something beneath the surface of Brad’s arrogant exterior that keeps her craving more of him—something almost sweet that Carrie can’t seem to resist.
Is Carrie ready to take another chance on romance? And will this new design of her life prove to be the right one…?
Review:
This cover (beautifully created I will point out) screams “read me this summer!” A wonderful combination of light-heartedness but with several poignant moments, The Right Design delivers something for everyone. It’s impossible not to fall in love with Carrie as she gets her heart broken and decides to take a leap of faith and start new. It’s hard also not to admire her, because how courageous is that? From debut author Isabella Louise Anderson, chick lit readers will be sure to want more after reading this!

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Summary:
A funny, heart-warming story about overcoming the prejudices we hold, no matter where we tip the scales.
When the pounds start falling off Katie, founder and president of London’s most popular social club for the calorie-challenged, it seems like a dream come true. But as the overweight stigma recedes and her life starts to change, she faces losing more than the inches around her waist. Everything that’s important to her – her closest friends, boyfriend, and acceptance into the club itself – are at stake in a world where thin is the new fat.
Review:
I don’t think I have missed a Michele Gorman book yet, and her latest delivers another round of light-hearted humor yet centers around a sensitive subject. Even though the novel is focused on the Curvy Girls Club that Katie starts and her friendship with her curvy friends, I loved the sub-plots as well. The romance plot-line was interesting and Katie’s job and health issues kept me engaged as well. A chick lit novel that is sure to be thought-provoking, I would recommend this and Michele Gorman in general for your reading lists!
