Fix Her Up

A Novel

De: Tessa Bailey

Narrado por: Charlotte North

A brand-new romantic comedy from New York Times best seller Tessa Bailey!

Georgette Castle’s family runs the best home renovation business in town, but she picked balloons instead of blueprints, and they haven’t taken her seriously since. Frankly, she’s over it. Georgie loves planning children’s birthday parties and making people laugh, just not at her own expense. She’s determined to fix herself up into a woman of the world...whatever that means.

Phase one: new framework for her business (a website from this decade, perhaps?)

Phase two: a gut-reno on her wardrobe (FYI, leggings are pants.)

Phase three: updates to her exterior (do people still wax?)

Phase four: put herself on the market (and stop crushing on Travis Ford!)

Living her best life means facing the truth: Georgie hasn’t been on a date since, well, ever. Nobody’s asking the town clown out for a night of hot sex, that’s for sure. Maybe if people think she’s having a steamy love affair, they’ll acknowledge she’s not just the “little sister” who paints faces for a living. And who better to help demolish that image than the resident sports star and tabloid favorite?

Travis Ford was Major League Baseball’s hottest rookie when an injury ended his career. Now, he’s flipping houses to keep busy and trying to forget his glory days. But he can’t even cross the street without someone recapping his greatest hits. Or making a joke about his...bat. And then there's Georgie, his best friend’s sister, who is not a kid anymore. When she proposes a wild scheme - that they pretend to date, to shock her family and help him land a new job - he agrees. What’s the harm? It’s not like it’s real.

But the girl Travis used to tease is now a funny, full-of-life woman, and there’s nothing fake about how much he wants her....

It was okay.

Started out to be funny and cute, got dirty, then ended sappy. The story was okay. I didn’t love it but didn’t hate it either. Eh…

5 Starts is not enough!!

A.top audiobook for me this year, this story has just the right amount of sweet, sass & angst. The characters and their chemistry, not only of romance but of family, is spectacularly well crafted and performed. There was depth and realism on each character's struggles, hopes and dreams and as a listener I just didn't want it to end. This was my first Tessa Bailey audio, as well as Charlotte North, and it was perfection on both fronts. I am thrilled to know there will be more words written in this world for the secondary characters. Bring it on!!!

Wowzers

Not only did this book keep me laughing but Chapter 11 & 21 were En fuego!!! I normally don't enjoy the back and forth mid chapter, character changes but it was done flawlessly in this book.

Loved most of this...

I really enjoyed most of this book. However, the sexual relationship between the two main characters was just a but unbelievable. The overall story was great.

The Cheesiest book I ever read

The narrator was very good with the female voices but just wasn’t meant to do a male’s one, and when she said “baby girl” I cringed EVERY SINGLE TIME.
The storyline was extremely predictable and cheesy.
Almost dnf , I’m sorry but in my opinion it’s not worth a credit

thumbs up

Great story. Just didn't like the term "baby girl" used all the time, although I was able to see past that. I need a Travis of my own.

Cute Story

I enjoyed the book. The characters were likable. The story has an excellent balance of comedy and romance with a little drama. This was my first time reading a book by this author. I’ll be reading more.

Swoon 👌👌👌

Absolute swoon worthy!
Loved the story and giddy feelings I was left with after reading this.

I’m left craving more

This book is definitely One of Tessa’s best it’s hot and sweet so sweet I think I have a cavity. It’s light and fluffy but deals with so many issues about self worth and self esteem and how people view themselves vs how others see them.

I nearly cried watching the minutes tick by because I wanted so very much for this to never end. It deserves a hundred stars but 5 will have to do

Amazing!

This is one of the best books I’ve listened to in a LONG time. Anyone who loves a good romance novel will love this book. Sighhhh 😉
