About the Book
Interior designer Quinn Cunningham has spent her life competing with her sisters, struggling with her weight, and breaking up with one jerk after another. She’s currently at war with her mother, who wants nothing more than for Quinn to land a man and fall in line with her wealthy Southern family’s traditional path of marriage, kids, spin class, and social climbing. But all Quinn really wants is to build a thriving career and make her own way.
When she lands an assignment to design a London townhouse for her boss’s brother, Quinn is ecstatic to get out of her hometown of Memphis and embark on an exciting adventure outside the bounds of her mother’s stifling social scene. As she learns the ropes in a new city and tackles the restoration of a stately old home, she meets a quirky fellow designer who pulls her easily—almost too easily—into her inner circle, along with not just one, but two hot British men with secrets she’s dying to unravel. The question is, will transatlantic romance unravel her, or will love finally find a place alongside Quinn’s ambition?
My Review
I am a big fan of Stacey Wiedower, and have read How To Be Happy, the first book in the Fixer Upper series. I enjoyed following Quinn and her quest across the pond, and seeing her London adventures. There was a lot of interesting twists in here when it came to both her friendships and her romantic interests while in London, and both aspects kept me on my toes. I enjoyed not really knowing how her story was going to end up, and that definitely held my interest throughout. I also enjoyed getting to know Quinn’s friends, and really hope we get another story from one of them, maybe Jules, in the future. It was also nice to play a little catch up with Jen from book 1! I will say that toward the end it did get a little long for me, a little too drawn out in the romance department, but still a really fun and sweet romantic comedy that I did have a fun time reading.
