Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey-Reshelved Books

Who's ready for a little romance? 
Raise your hands, if you are. 

This book is *not* a YA book! If you're looking for a YA book - YA is not this book.  I wouldn't even read this review because this is not the book for that genre. (Though, I do have some YA book reviews coming up. Stay tuned for them!)

The copy of the book cover is from Harper Collins.
There was a small mishap with my copy....

While I found this book to have been the best rom-com type book that I've read, I would like to say that it becomes VERY uh, NSFW.  Don't be fooled by the cover art, this book does quite hot and heavy.

That being said.  Here goes my review!

Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey is the first book is her "Hot and Hammered Series" (Did I know this before reading this book? Nope.  I only learned of it when I was searching Amazon for the book to link).  Fun Fact: Her second book Love Her or Lose Her (as per Amazon, this book will follow Dominic and Rosie) for the same series, will be coming out next year. 

Georgie is a 23 year old woman, who also happens to be a clown.  Yes, you read that correctly: she is a clown but a professional clown.  Like any businesswoman, Georgie has aspirations to grow her business and become successful.  Travis Ford, Georgie's longtime childhood crush, is back in town after his retirement from his career in professional baseball.  The story starts off in an interesting way, Georgie goes to visit Travis in his apartment, thanks to her brother Stephen who gave her the key.  There, Georgie and Travis get into some sort of food fight!
  
I was surprised to see the Georgie and Travis both wanted to be taken seriously and move on from what people thought of them.  Georgie wants to be seen as more than just the youngest Castle kid.  Travis wants to be seen as someone who's more than just a pretty boy, who's reputation proceeds him.

I had an idea of how the book was going to end.  I just surprised that it panned out in the way that it did. 

I really liked this book, I thought it was super cute and really funny.  Georgie's character was written in such a way that really kept you laughing.  Travis's character though (oh my word!) I didn't realize that he would be so... aggressive! 

Because of Travis's character and the things he partakes in, this book is not for someone who has some conservative views about adult relations? (That was worded really awkwardly.  I don't know how else to write that out). 

I found that Tessa Bailey was a lot like Meg Cabot with the humor behind Georgie's character.  She was funny, I often found myself giggling at something she said or did. 

Will Georgie succeed with expanding her business? Will Travis get his commentator job? Will Georgie and Travis be able to weather this storm and stay together? 

You'll just have to read the book to find out!

I am happily giving this book 5 coffee beans out of 5!
