One to Watch, by Kate Stayman-London, is about a stylish plus-sized fashion blogger named Bea. From the outside, she has everything – great friends, a wonderful family, good looks, and top-tier influencer status.
She is also terribly brokenhearted.
Bea and many others watch “The Main Squeeze” – a show similar to “The Bachelor”. Bea is tired of seeing only size-zero girls come on the show, so when she gets the call to become the next Main Squeeze, she says YES!
She is not interested in finding love though. Bea intends to use the show to help boost her career and show the world that plus-sized women deserve love (and tv stardom). But of course, what she expected is not what actually happens.
