Bigger Than Pride: A Bold, Steamy Ride into Texas-Sized Romance

When the bad boy isn’t just trouble—he’s everything.

In Bigger by Tory Baker, part of the Bad Boys of Texas series, heat doesn’t just simmer—it boils. This is the kind of romance that grabs you by the collar, dares you to look away, and leaves you breathless in the best way possible. It’s unapologetically Southern, delightfully filthy, and unexpectedly tender at its core.

Set against the backdrop of dusty roads, pickup trucks, and a whole lot of pride, Bigger isn’t just about lust—it’s about redemption, second chances, and the fierce kind of love that doesn’t just ask—it demands to be felt.

Why This Story Hits Different Right Now

We’re living in a world that’s constantly trying to tame desire, mute emotion, and package love into something polished and polite. Bigger rebels against all of that. It leans into the mess, the grit, the fire—and shows us that love doesn’t have to be perfect to be real.

This story matters now because it reminds us that people can be more than their reputation and that sometimes the biggest transformations come from the people we least expect, especially when love gets involved.

Book Overview: Saddle Up for a Wild, Steamy Ride

At the center of Bigger is a man who lives up to his name in every way. Big presence. Big attitude. Big… feelings. He’s the kind of guy people whisper about, the one your mama warned you about—but that your heart refuses to resist.

He’s rough, rugged, and carrying a past that’s left scars deeper than anyone realizes. Then she walks in—someone who sees through the bravado, challenges the myth, and threatens the walls he’s built around his heart.

What unfolds is a magnetic, unfiltered romance laced with fiery banter, southern charm, and an emotional undercurrent that tugs at every string. The chemistry is explosive, but it’s the vulnerability—the trust earned inch by inch—that makes this book so addictively good.

Themes & Characters: Rough Edges, Real Hearts

Tropes That Make This Romance Unforgettable

• Grumpy x Sunshine: He’s stone-faced and guarded; she’s warmth in a bottle
• Small-town redemption: Everyone knows your name—and your mistakes
• Protective alpha male: The kind that looks like trouble but treats his woman like gold
• Past trauma, present healing: Love doesn’t erase scars—it honors them
• Unfiltered steam: If you’re here for the spice, buckle up

Our heroine? She’s smart, grounded, and refuses to be anyone’s afterthought. She’s been through her trials and has zero patience for games—which makes her the perfect match for a man who’s never met a woman who tells him no.

And him? He’s more than the town thinks. Yes, he’s intense. Yes, he’s been rough around the edges. But with her, he softens—without ever losing that alpha fire. Their relationship isn’t just physical (though it’s very physical)—it’s transformational.
