as we all experience at one time or another, the cover no matter how great is in no way indicative of the journey that awaits the reader It all comes down to the combination of words and the feelings those words happen to inspire.I found Fix Her Up to be a recycled mix of one too many romance tropes, told through a cast of characters I couldn t take seriously, and sorry to say, all done with a bland delivery Bailey ...This book is five years behind its time, as seen in its creepy, overprotective, easily angered love interest and an air headed, literal clown main character My list of things

this, I think it would need a huge facelift in how the love interest treats the main character, the descriptions were written, This book is five years behind its time, as seen in its creepy,

sense to cringey dialogue to sexual descriptions that made absolutely no sense, this book needed an editor, bad Some things I let slidethan others but the phrasing of this book was just SO awkward and
