Reviews: Fix Them Up (20)
“A romance grounded in Northern charm”
(Paperback)
by Abigail
I loved this utterly romantic book! This book is more than a love story, it’s a book of healing, reflection and community. From going back to your Northern roots and reconnecting with a culture and setting which just wraps you up like a warm hug. The romance is both gentle and genuine and hot and intense. This couple needed one another and I needed this book. Excellent representation of AuDHD and how more open and understanding reflective conversations are needed. A wonderful contemporary romance
“Wonderful read”
(Paperback)
by Maggie Harris
Fix Them Up Kat has ADHD and Dyslexia so sees the world differently and at times has trouble navigating her emotions. When her estranged father dies he leaves her his house in Everly Heath Manchester. Kat takes time out of her job in London to renovate the house with a view to increase its value to sell. Enter Liam a grumpy builder who her fathers family persuade to help her , they have met before and it did not go at all well. This book is a joy to read, a wonderful slow burn romance with a cast of great characters with wonderful personalities and sparkling humorous dialogue and laugh out loud moments. That said there is a lot of emotional heart rending situations that give an added depth. Hopefully we will visit Everly Heath in the not to distant future and see how other characters develop. My thanks to net galley and publisher for the opportunity to review this book honestly.
“The perfect autumn read with fab characters and the perfect plot!”
(Paperback)
by Georgina Bone
I loved this book so much that I read it in one sitting! Kat was such an awesome FMC - neuro diversity FTW! it was such a nice change to read a book not based in London and also loved the dynamic of the story being based around a house reno - particularly with sentimental meaning. I'm so looking forward to book 2!!!!

ARC Review 5⭐ I loved this book! Kat and Willa's relationship is so lovely. Willa is such a good friend/ boss! Liam! I do love a grumpy builder. I was so excited to see Kat break down the hard exterior. The trauma from Kat masking/ being undiagnosed and her mum's refusal to believe the diagnosis or support her at all made me so mad

“An amazing debut”
(Paperback)
by Lyndsey Brookes
There is something about a grumpy handsome man who can do DIY that just hits the spot! I read this book so fast I might as well have inhaled it. The relationship between Kat and Liam wanted to make me shout at the pages - there was angst, banter, flirting and a lot of looks over pints of Guinness. It was so well written and the perfect balm after a busy day. The way that Maggie gently handled Kat's ADHD while providing readers a glimpse into her brain was also really well done. Thank you Maggie for setting this book in Manchester. It gave all the northern vibes with the community spirit and well meaning nosey neighbours, and I thoroughly enjoyed all the British references and banter that was sprinkled throughout the book. NB: This book does cover parental loss from the very beginning so one to note if this is something that you find triggering.
