There's only one problem... No one seems to want a short woman with curves to spare.
A dating app's promise of forever...

When an online match is made, a blind date is all that stands between this short curvy girl and mountain man's path to happiness. But will their differing views on love ruin a chance at happily ever after?

HEART SHAPED CHAOS
BY MIRANDA STANLEY
Ten years ago, I made a mistake. Now, I've just made another. I opened the dating app my BFF installed on my phone.
I didn't need a man. I knew what happened when you gave into your own desires. You ended up with a kid.
Ten years ago, I'd given in to my own taboo, primal urges and done the unthinkable with Cory, my stepbrother.
That night could have ended in murder. I don't know because I ran away from home when my real brother caught us.
Now, I'm on a dating app I don't want to be on, talking to a faceless guy that seems eerily familiar. But he can't be who seems to be. That guy is well out of my life, just like my family. But is he? I'm about to find out on Valentine's Day.
