"A Beautiful Plot with Sexy Irish Accents"

Fresh Fiction Review

Unfixable
Tessa Bailey

Reviewed by Samantha R

Romance Erotica Sensual

After winning a photography contest, Willa gets a trip to Dublin. Fortunately for her, the trip is a perfect opportunity to get away from her problems, namely a heart-twisting breakup. When she meets tough, brass Shane Claymore whose family hosts her stay, she does her best to push aside the attraction she feels for him, especially as it gets her more confused than ever over how she feels about her breakup. But as the two try to stay away from each, their chemistry won't seem to let them stay away for long. They will both have to learn what it means to open themselves up and be honest if they ever want to be together.

UNFIXABLE by Tessa Bailey is without a doubt one of the most beautiful, bold, and memorable new adult romance books I've read. I've seen tough girl main characters, fast boys with a tender side, and accents of all sorts, but somehow, Bailey delivers them in a unique and utterly breathtaking manner that had me trying to hug my Kindle app. Willa and Shane, now on my list of favorite literary couples, do something that I think is irresistible in romance couples: they keep each other in check. Willa and Shane both try to wiggle their way out of awkward conversations with each other, uncomfortable moments, etc., but neither of them let the other get away with it, and it's absolutely wonderful to read. I wanted to high five them both so many times that I shamelessly ended up having to give myself a high five once just to get it out of my system.

But more than just their strength as a couple, individually, Shane and Willa develop phenomenally throughout the story. They both have intense pasts, though still realistic, and they both take a journey in realizing what makes themselves themselves, what spark it is that makes them their own person. I fell completely in love with them, and I was so sad to see them go.

If you like new adult romance, UNFIXABLE is not one to miss. Refreshing and pure joy to read, Tessa Bailey has done a magnificent job.

SUMMARY

A new adult novel from Entangled's Embrace imprint...

He’s the last thing she wants…but the only thing she needs.

Willa Peet isn’t interested in love. She’s been there, done that, and has the shattered heart to prove it. Ready to shake the breakup, she heads to Dublin, Ireland. But there’s a problem. A dark-haired, blue-eyed problem with a bad attitude that rivals her own. And he’s not doling out friendly Irish welcomes.

Shane Claymore just wants to race. The death of his father forced him off the Formula One circuit, but he’s only staying in Dublin long enough to sell the Claymore Inn and get things in order for his mother and younger sister. He never expected the sarcastic American girl staying at the inn to make him question everything.

But even as Willa and Shane’s fiery natures draw them together, their pasts threaten to rip them apart. Can Shane give up racing to be with the woman he loves, or will Willa’s quest to resurrect the tough-talking, no-shit-taking girl she used to be destroy any hope of a future together?
