He Called Me Easy Because I Was Fat: A Plus Size Second Chance Romance
Hallie Bennett learned the hard way that sometimes the cruelest person in the room is the one who secretly wants you most.
In college, Christian Shaw wanted Hallie badly enough to seek her out in private-but not badly enough to admit it when his fraternity brothers started mocking him for liking the fat girl.
Then Hallie rejected him.
Humiliated and desperate to save face, Christian told one vicious lie: that Hallie was easy, desperate for male attention, and willing to sleep with anyone who made her feel pretty.
The rumor spread farther than either of them could have imagined.
Six years later, Hallie has rebuilt everything Christian helped destroy. She owns a successful event-design company, has learned to love the body everyone once used against her, and has absolutely no intention of giving Christian Shaw another chance.
Then her biggest contract puts them under the same roof.
Christian is older now. Quieter. Ashamed of the man he used to be. And when he finally sees what his lie cost Hallie, he knows an apology will never be enough.
So he starts telling the truth.
To the men who laughed.
To the people who repeated the rumor.
And eventually, in the same world where he once made wanting Hallie sound like something shameful, Christian has to prove that this time he's willing to want her out loud.
But Hallie survived him once.
Falling for him again might be the only thing scarier than hating him.
He Called Me Easy Because I Was Fat is an emotional plus-size second-chance romance featuring a heroine who never needs to shrink to earn love, a former frat-boy hero with a serious grovel ahead of him, forced proximity, old wounds, public accountability, and a hard-earned happily ever after.
