After being dumped by his long-term boyfriend for being overweight, Henry Beckett decides to make some drastic changes. In a vain attempt at getting his boyfriend back, Henry does the most absurdly frightening thing he can think of. He joins a gym.<\/p>\n

Reed Henske is a personal trainer who isn\u2019t sure he\u2019ll ever be ready to date again. He\u2019s sick of guys who are only interested in the perfect body image, never seeing him for who he really is. As Reed tortures Henry with things like diet and exercise, Henry enamours Reed with recipes and laughter.<\/p>\n

As the friendship lines start to blur, Henry is convinced there\u2019s no way Thor-like Reed could ever be interested in a guy like him. Reed just has to convince Henry that life isn\u2019t about reaching your ideal bodyweight. It\u2019s about finding your perfect counterweight.<\/p>\n

** Second Edition 2024: New cover and new formatting only. There have been no content changes to the book.<\/p>\n

5 STARS!!!<\/p>\n

Henry has just been dumped by his boyfriend of 8 years for basically being overweight and complacent. He signs up with a personal trainer to try and win back his ex. Before long that mission is forgotten about and morphs into one of growth and self discovery.<\/p>\n

Reed the personal trainer, may seem self confident and put together but things from his past left him venerable and a bit guarded. When the absolutely hilarious Henry enters his life,
\nReed seems to enjoy spending time with him. But when Reed puts himself out there, Henry seems to doubt Reeds intentions because of his own self worth issues and is bound to ruin this thing before it can even begin.<\/p>\n

This is my 2nd time reading this book. The first time I read it, this time I listened to the audiobook. Joel did a great job, as always, with the different people’s voices. I listened to it nonstop from start to finish. This is one of those feel good stories that I can for sure see myself reading or listening to it again and again.<\/p>\n
