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 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?
I think this was my first time reading a romance book that
featured golf🤔 I don't know anything about golf except for
Tiger Woods maybe? And that was mainly because of that scandal
😂
Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey features Wells Whitaker, a
promising golf star who hasn't been playing well in the last few
years. But that doesn't stop his number one fan - Josephine
Doyle from showing up and supporting him. But after another
match where he fails spectacularly, he's on the verge of
quitting and rudely asks Josephine to go home too. After a
hurricane damages Josephine's golf shop, he kinda steps in to
help her by offering her a position as his caddy and she agrees.
She gets to save enough money to restore the shop and Wells
could make a comeback too with enough motivation. If only they
could keep their hands off each other too😂
I was kinda worried at first about the sportstar-fangirl dynamic
but thankfully that wasn't the focus here. Josephine is more of
a 'career' fan before she gets to know Wells personally, and she
actually knows a lot about golf too. I liked how tenacious she
was while helping Wells get back his confidence too. While the
romance did give me insta love vibes, it also has a nice
grumpy/sunshine touch with grouchy Wells beginning to care for
the independent Josephine. It was so cute when he was worried
about her T1 Diabetes and constantly kept checking her glucose
levels while talking to her parents too. This one also has the
usual TB dirty talk and steam! Though I did enjoy this one there
were some minor things that kept me from loving this one
completely but that might just be a me thing. I think if you've
read and enjoyed other Tessa Bailey books, you'd definitely like
this one too!
It comes out on 02/13!❣️✨

Tessa Bailey aspires to three things. Writing hot and
unforgettable, character-driven romance, being a good mother and
eventually sneaking onto the judging panel on a reality show
baking competition. She lives on Long Island, New York with her
husband and daughter, writing all day and rewarding herself with a
cheese plate and Netflix binges in the evening. If you want sexy,
heartfelt, humorous romance with a guaranteed happy ending, you’ve
come to the right place.
