Über diesen Titel
A brand-new romantic comedy from New York Times best seller Tessa Bailey!
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. Frankly, she’s over it. Georgie loves planning children’s birthday parties and making people laugh, just not at her own expense. She’s determined to fix herself up into a woman of the world...whatever that means.
Phase one: new framework for her business (a website from this decade, perhaps?)
Phase two: a gut-reno on her wardrobe (FYI, leggings are pants.)
Phase three: updates to her exterior (do people still wax?)
Phase four: put herself on the market (and stop crushing on Travis Ford!)
Living her best life means facing the truth: Georgie hasn’t been on a date since, well, ever. Nobody’s asking the town clown out for a night of hot sex, that’s for sure. 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. And who better to help demolish that image than the resident sports star and tabloid favorite?
Travis Ford was Major League Baseball’s hottest rookie when an injury ended his career. Now, he’s flipping houses to keep busy and trying to forget his glory days. But he can’t even cross the street without someone recapping his greatest hits. Or making a joke about his...bat. And then there's Georgie, his best friend’s sister, who is not a kid anymore. When she proposes a wild scheme - that they pretend to date, to shock her family and help him land a new job - he agrees. What’s the harm? It’s not like it’s real.
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....

This read like a 2014 Colleen Hoover romance
This book is severalyears 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 I disliked about this book is honestly vast, but I just couldn’t shake the feeling that I cannot BELIEVE this book was published in 2019, especially through such a massive publisher. At times it reads like a very cringe fanfiction and especially the sex scene are just.. very graphic but unrealistic.
For me to have enjoyed this it would have needed an upgrade in editing to how the love interest treats the main character, the descriptions were written, and how childish the characters came off.
The writing style included cringey dialogue, sexual descriptions that made absolutely no sense, this book needed an editor. Some things I let slide more than others but the phrasing of this book was just SO awkward and I didn’t vibe with the writing at all.
The love interest considers Georgie his little sister for half the book but still sexualized the hell out of her in literally every single scene she’s in. He was also SO jealous and overprotective of her even when they weren’t even together, and Georgie let him get away with doing super sketchy stuff like sabotaging a date just because she thought he was ~so hot~.
Over all I see what the book tried to be but just failed overall.
