Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC!

Lucy Score does it again. She has a way with romcoms that involve manual labor okay?
The spice and chemistry are unmatched.

Lucy Score is so far up my auto buy list it’s insane, but Mr. Fixer Upper in particular? *Chefs Kiss*

I absolutely love this one, the characters are so likeable and the tension in the chemistry is perfection. (THAT SHOWER SCENE?! 🌶️🤌) Yes, the reasoning behind the conflict is a little overblown and dramatic, but it’s silly in a way only romcoms can be. The redemption/gesture moment is worth the eye rolls it takes to get there. This is definitely a favorite for me!

Thank you to NetGalley and Bloom Books for providing the ARC.

This book seemed like a great rom com with an interesting premise, but the longer I read, the more I just got kind of confused about the direction the author was taking it.

Paige is a very driven character who obviously has a good head on her shoulders, but made such stupid mistakes that it was hard to take her seriously when she was asking "why" Gannon was very intense, almost too intense that it came across as kind of obsessively creepy. And the reason they broke up was so stupid that I had a hard time wrapping my brain about it.

Not the best story I've read, but not the worst. I just wish that it has been a little more cohesive

Wow! This was exactly the book I needed! Sweet, funny, and just the right amount of steamy as Paige and Gannon bicker and fall together and apart and don't want to give too many spoilers but the end made my heart happy.

Paige is a field producer on the fixer upper tv show but dreams of producing a documentary and she wants to climb the ladder on her own merit and not because she is tied to the annoying, hot star of the show Gannon. Gannon has no time for television nonsense and has reasons for being on the show not related to stardom. But the more time they spend together the more the sparks fly and the more they begin to see beneath the public personas. But will the manipulations of the network destroy what they have built?

A story of two strong, private individuals tryin to create a life they love but will they be able to trust each other enough to do it together.

Oh, Mrs. Score...you have once again given us a hero and heroine relationship full of intensity and passion. You've also added a bit of home improvement/home makeover/DIY to your story, which is an added bonus, in my opinion. Even though I can't stand anything to do with reality TV, reading about it wasn't so bad. Also, I normally don't get attached to secondary characters, but in this instance they made the story even more enjoyable. I believe this is one of Lucy's Score's older books, and I could tell because the writing wasn't as top-notch as her Knockemout series, but it was still a fun read. I would recommend it.

I absolutely LOVED this steamy, enemies to lovers workplace romance between Gannon, a reality reno show star and Paige, the field producer who dreams of one day making her own show. The chemistry between these two was on FIRE and finding out what a softie Gannon was melted my heart! Paige really makes him work for their relationship though since she doesn't want to be seen as sleeping with the star or having it ruin her reputation.

If you love shows like Extreme Home Makeover, the premise will be right up your alley. All the side characters were excellent too and I just loved every second of this book, especially the epic final scenes! Many thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for a digital copy of the re-release edition in exchange for my honest review! Perfect for fans of books like Built to last or The honey-don't list. If you enjoy this book do yourself a favor and grab The Christmas fix next, featuring Gannon's twin sister and co-host, Catalina.

This was a re-read for me and I continue to love it! Lucy Score is one of my favorite authors and I think this might have been my first Score book...I can't remember! I'm usually not a huge fan of stories that revolve around filming/famous people/reality TV, but she did a great job to represent that world. I really enjoyed the house makeover concept, it is definitely reminiscent of that one show and I did love to watch it when I was younger. I liked the development between the 2 main characters. Fun, easy, and steamy read!

I thought this was a fun read. It was definitely a quick one. I liked the main characters but wanted Paige to be a stronger than she was when it came to some of the issues she dealt with. As a woman who worked in TV production the author got the work inequalities right.
Thanks to NetGalley for the advanced copy. #NetGalley #MrFixerUpper
