It took me a little bit to get into the book but I am obsessed with Travis Ford

I mean, probably more like a 2.5. I didn't hate it, it kept me entertained and willing to finish it. However, multiple times throughout the book I either rolled my eyes or said, "Oh for Pete's Sake!". Cheesey romance with some super testosterone filled men that at times were cringey. Detailed sex scenes which would be ok if the male hero didn't keep calling her "Baby Girl". Gross.

The female hero is a clown. Literally. And she can't understand why people don't take her seriously. At one point she is lamenting that adults that hire her at kid parties treat her like a child and offer her juice boxes and pizza instead of wine and adult food like the rest of the adults. Um, I don't want a clown drinking wine in front of the kids at my parties either.

I've heard the second book in this series is much better and I might be willing to give it a shot if I'm in the mood for mindless reading.

Instead of Fix Her Up this book should have been Fix Him Up. A washed up baseball player comes home to his personal pity party after an injury ends his career. He is willing to sulk until his best friend's younger sister comes to drag him back into the land of the living. She's had a crush on him since she was a teen but she's never been thought of as anything but the annoying baby of the family by everyone.
This story is an amazing transformation from friends to fake dating to real lovers as Travis sees what a treasure Georgie is - she is strong, independent and has managed to make a life for herself without the help of her family since they don't take her seriously.
I listened to the audio version of this book and everytime Travis called her "Baby Girl" I just wanted to smile.

I had various issues with it, but overall a fun book. I liked the main character a lot.

Swoon

Friends to lovers, an angsty baseball player, a quirky girl, and a slow burn. Sign me up. This one was just absolutely swoon-worthy.
