Book Review: Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey

by Krista

Synopsis

Wells Whitaker was once golf’s hottest rising star, but lately, all he has to show for his “promising” career is a killer hangover, a collection of broken clubs, and one remaining supporter. No matter how bad he plays, the beautiful, sunny redhead is always on the sidelines. He curses, she cheers. He scowls, she smiles. But when Wells quits in a blaze of glory and his fangirl finally goes home, he knows he made the greatest mistake of his life.

Josephine Doyle believed in the gorgeous, grumpy golfer, even when he didn’t believe in himself. Yet after he throws in the towel, she begins to wonder if her faith was misplaced. Then a determined Wells shows up at her door with a wild proposal: be his new caddy, help him turn his game around, and split the prize money. And considering Josephine’s professional and personal life is in shambles, she could really use the cash…

As they travel together, spending days on the green and nights in neighboring hotel rooms, sparks fly. Before long, they’re inseparable, Wells starts winning again, and Josephine is surprised to find a sweet, thoughtful guy underneath his gruff, growly exterior. This hot man wants to brush her hair, feed her snacks, and take bubble baths together? Is this real life? But Wells is technically her boss and an athlete falling for his fangirl would be ridiculous… right?

Thoughts

Well, let me first say that I was not prepared for all of the spice in this one! This couple really enjoyed each other. That said, it was a really fun read. I enjoy sports romance, so it was refreshing to venture into a new sport this time. While the book’s plot was believable, it was written in a way that made it all feel extra special. Both Wells and Josephine had entertaining personalities. I also enjoyed how everything was wrapped up in the end. If you love a light grumpy x sunshine romance, definitely give this one a try!
