And this is in no way disrespecting or saying Tessa Bailey is a bad writer because she’s not, this just wasn’t the book for me-you lose some and you win some and reading is subjective. I think that that there were certain aspects of this book I did enjoy, but some of the storylines and the characters and the romance just didn’t click for me.

I can say that this book was interesting. I didn’t know what to expect when reading this book except, obviously, a romance. It kind of gave me Bop to the Top vibes if you’re a High School Musical fanatic. I mean there was a tall guy with a backward baseball cap and a pretty girl in a pink dress and they were obviously teasing each other in a kiss across a ladder. And let me be honest, I first bought it because it was making its rounds all over bookstagram and it looked like such a fun read. 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… ReviewĮww that sounds wrong!!!! I cringe at myself, but that’s what I get for trying to be clever with my intro.īut you don’t want to hear about me cringing about myself, you want to know about what I thought of this book. What’s the harm? It’s not like it’s real. When she proposes a wild scheme-that they pretend to date, to shock her family and help him land a new job-he agrees. And then there’s Georgie, his best friend’s sister, who is not a kid anymore. But he can’t even cross the street without someone recapping his greatest hits. Now he’s flipping houses to keep busy and trying to forget his glory days. Travis Ford was major league baseball’s hottest rookie when an injury ended his career. And who better to help demolish that image than the resident sports star and tabloid favorite? 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. Nobody’s asking the town clown out for a night of hot sex, that’s for sure. Living her best life means facing the truth: Georgie hasn’t been on a date since, well, ever. Phase four: put herself on the market (and stop crushing on Travis Ford!) Phase three: updates to her exterior (do people still wax?)

Phase two: a gut-reno on her wardrobe (fyi, leggings are pants.) Phase one: new framework for her business (a website from this decade, perhaps?) She’s determined to fix herself up into a Woman of the World… whatever that means. Georgie loves planning children’s birthday parties and making people laugh, just not at her own expense. 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.
