In The Fix-Up we meet Ben and Holly. Ben is a recently appointed CEO to his family’s business, but a true nerd at heart. He is very socially awkward and doesn’t even realize he doesn’t possess the Alpha traits needed to be a CEO until he runs into Holly. Holly is in PR & rebranding and when she intervenes at the most awkward of moments to pretend to be Ben’s wife, the two share sparks. Ben realizes maybe Holly is just what he needs to rebrand himself so he can carry on as a successful CEO. The two share so many awkward, funny, and sexy moments. This book is very lite and unexpected, when a nerd falls for a well put together PR rep, what could possibly go wrong? She knows she shouldn’t get involved and tries her hardest to resist, but he just won’t give up on Holly. He needs her in more ways than he realizes to succeed in business and in life. This was just a very fun read that made me laugh, a lot!
I couldn’t finish this book, I like the author’s writing and have enjoyed many of their books before but this one wasn’t one I could get into. I will try again when the author’s next book is released as I am a fan of theirs.
A short and sweet romance with a Pygmalion twist. Ben Langley is alpha male material - brilliant, sexy and nice - in a geek package...desperately in need of a social skills makeover. Enter Holly Colvin, Public Relations and Branding expert in desperate need of a big client to save her business. Mach made in heaven! Cliched, maybe but delivered in a funny and entertaining way.
Ben and Holly capture your imagination and hold it. There's the element of insta-love/insta-lust that happens at first meet that you have to get past but the story flows and is a very easy read. Live long and prosper!
