Review: Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey
Synopsis:
After an injury ends Travis Ford’s major league baseball career, he returns home to start over. He just wants to hammer out his frustrations at his new construction gig and forget all about his glory days. But he can’t even walk through town without someone recapping his greatest hits. Or making a joke about his… bat. And then there’s Georgie, his buddy’s little sister, who is definitely not a kid anymore.
Georgette Castle has crushed on her older brother’s best friend for years. The grumpy, bear of a man working for her family’s house flipping business is a far cry from the charming sports star she used to know. But a moody scowl doesn’t scare her and Georgie’s determined to show Travis he’s more than a pretty face and a batting average, even if it means putting her feelings aside to be “just friends.”
Travis wants to brood in peace. But the girl he used to tease is now a funny, full-of-life woman who makes him feel whole again. And he wants her. So damn bad. Except Georgie’s off limits and he knows he can’t give her what she deserves. But she’s becoming the air he breathes and Travis can’t stay away, no matter how hard he tries...

My Review:
I was NOT expecting that steam! This book is cute and steamy. Georgie has to be one of my favorite characters in a romance novel. She's funny and she's 100% herself even if people see her as an adult-child. She wants nothing more for everyone to see her as just an adult that likes to entertain children.
Enter Travis, the man Georgie has been in love with her entire life. Travis needs to show some stability and not living up to his nickname "Two Bats" anymore for a new job to replace his Baseball career.
Georgie and Travis decide to fake date. This is a trope that I really enjoy because there's almost always a happy ending out of it. I feel like this might be my favorite story involving this trope!
They get closer than planned. Words are said. Feelings are hurt. This book was just ugh!
I really enjoyed my time reading this book. I didn't want to put it down! I made excuses just to listen to the audiobook. I really want to pick up more of Tessa Bailey's books in the future.
