Adjective
1. (of a person or animal) having a large amount of excess flesh.
Hi. My name is Maggie, and I’m a fat person. No, I’m not a self-loathing, angry woman who thinks all skinny girls are the devil spawn of satan, thank you very much. What I am, is a cubicle dwelling, shy girl with a healthy love for all things chocolate and deep fried. Yeah, I know I should put down the brownie and pick up a celery stalk but where is the fun in that? My best friend Polly assures me that the club we’re going to tonight is going to be loads of fun, but I’m not sure. Until I meet him.

Yes, Yes. Laugh it up. A 30 year old sexually Dominant male, who owns his own club, is scared of water. If you’d been through what I had as a child you’d be fucking terrified of it too. I’ve always looked for Mrs. Right now, preferring to fling myself from a moving airplane into the Atlantic than to think about settling down. Until she comes walking into Newcomers night at my club.

This is Jackson’s world, not mine, but he’s slowly dragging me under, introducing me to things I don’t fully understand, but want to learn. There is something between us. We can’t fight it and we’re both sinking.

Review
Chub Rub was my first book by the author. It's a brutally honest look at what it feels like to be overweight from the inside.
But that's just the tip, this story is so much more than that.
Follow Maggie as she is brave enough to face a new challenge, something that scares her to death because it not only exposes the physical Maggie but the mental and emotional.
Watch her grow, watch her become more accepting of her body.
Watch as she learns to see herself through the eyes of a man who loves her.
Watch her learn to love herself.
"No matter what anyone says, I am a beautiful person inside and out."
Jackson may be as close to the perfect man as is humanly possible.
He is patient, he knows exactly how to handle Maggie, how to get inside her head when she needs it. He's the man determined to show Maggie that she's beautiful, inside and out.
The fact that the author expressed Maggie's emotions, her view of herself so well endeared the character to me quickly. Most of us have been uncomfortable with our weight at times and some of us have felt exactly as Maggie does, this is a story that so many can relate to. It's honesty, it's ugly at times but in the end even though it may not be what you hoped for, it's a beautiful thing.
