In Short: A light-hearted but spicy sports romance. If you’ve ever fangirled hard, then this is the modern romance book for you!

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 proposal: 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?

Book Review: Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey

If you’re in the mood for a modern-day romcom with a sporty twist, Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey might just hit the spot.

This contemporary romance manages to be both lighthearted and spicy, offering a fun reading experience even if you’re not a sports fan.

While golf plays a role in the story, you don’t need to know anything about it to enjoy the book — though I was a bit tickled by the mention of Torrey Pines Golf Course, as I live nearby and could picture the setting perfectly!

Overall, I’d rate Fangirl Down around 3.8 to 4 stars. It’s a romance novel, so there are definitely some predictable moments, but Tessa Bailey throws in a few fun twists that keep things interesting. The characters are engaging, and there’s enough humor to balance out the steamier scenes.

Speaking of spice, this book delivers on that front, too. On a scale of 1 to 5, I’d give it around a 4 to 4.2 for spiciness. There’s a lot of heat, but it doesn’t completely overshadow the plot. Tessa Bailey strikes a good balance, ensuring there’s still plenty of story to follow beyond the bedroom scenes.

All in all, Fangirl Down is an enjoyable read, especially if you’re a fan of sports-themed romance or just looking for something fun and a little spicy. I definitely recommend giving it a try!
