Mr. Fixer Upper Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 21,709 ratings

He started to work the laces of his boots loose. Toeing them off, he tugged his t-shirt over his head.

“Oh my God. What are you doing?” Paige’s voice barely rose above the spray from the showerhead.

“I’m washing your damn hair.”


It’s a constant battle on set between sexy home renovation reality star grumpy Gannon and his no-nonsense field producer. Paige has zero time for temperamental talent, especially one who acts like being in front of the camera is the last thing he wants.

Mr. Sex in a Toolbelt has made it his mission in life to get a rise out of her, but Paige is a master at locking down her temper. They’re on the road together working long hours fixing houses and changing lives. When cracks in her legendary coolness start to show and sparks fly, Gannon is infatuated and the cameras are there to capture it.

But he’s fallen for pretty packages before and Paige won’t be taken seriously if she’s caught sleeping with the star of her show. She also can’t seem to resist those big, rough hands. Those smoldery hazel eyes. The dimples. The toolbelt. That fiercely protective vibe.

Too bad it’s all about to fall apart.
She never should have trusted him.
He never should have let her go.

Author’s Note: A protective grumpy hero, a not easily impressed heroine, the worst human being on TV ever, a grand gesture so big you’ll need a box of tissues, and THAT SHOWER SCENE.

I started Mr. Fixer Upper right after work at 5:00 p.m. and I finished it at 12:30 p.m..
My family had to make a run to town to get supper because I was not going to stop reading. I laughed, cried and according to my husband gasp a lot. - Ptacekjill

As is always the case with Lucy Score, I laughed and cried through the whole book. If there is one thing that gets me every time, it's a strong character showing vulnerability. - Joyce Hiebert

Sexy and

The shower scene......oh yeah.....hot, hot, hot! I couldn't wait to turn the pages and find out what happened next, so much so that my eyes were tired, red and gritty from reading for so long! - Gerri Tickle

Exceptional romance
5 out of 5 stars
Exceptional romance
This romance was amazing. No notes. It was everything I needed in a novel and I devoured it in one day. Gannon was snarky and sassy, but his protective and nurturing vibe made me swoon. Paige is strong, stubborn, and driven, and I loved that she never compromised on her dreams and ambitions. The love between these two is noticeable from their first on page interaction and I loved reading them so much that I wanted to reread it as soon as I finished. I wish I could read it again for the first time. It was really special. Now I’m even more excited for Cat’s story. I’ll be bumping that up the list quick.

    This book makes me want to turn time back 50 years so I could be as badass as Paige! But only if I could find a Gannon! Absolutely devoured this book, but I feel that way about all of Lucy Score’s books.

    Do you love home renovation reality tv? Do you crave a rom com that leaves you smiling to yourself? Do you appreciate some tension and banter that doesn’t make you cringe? If so, this is the book for you. If not, kindly reevaluate your life.

    Lucy Score brings a fresh rom com with a plot not in your standard order and with characters you like across the board (mostly.)

    Paige and Gannon are fun. I liked them as individuals and as a couple. It’s refreshing to read a book where the complex issue the couple faces is forced or because someone made a truly awful decision. This is more real.

    It’s an easy, fun read that leaves you satisfied … and maybe ready for start a DIY project of your own.

    I think I've fallen in love with Lucy Score. I have been on a lick and this is my third in a row of hers. To begin it has an underlying grumpy/ sunshine kick but we quickly learn both MCs have their depth and complexities. I enjoyed the thoughtfulness and passion of Gannon. And my heart, sweet Paige. She gave me so many feels especially during the instances showing her tangled and tumultuous relationship with her mother.

    On the page just before the excerpt for the next book in this series, Cat’s story, the reader is asked, “Did you like Paige’s and Gannon’s story?” I wish I could answer yes, but unfortunately, I cannot as I didn’t particularly care for either character. I liked Gannon marginally better than Paige, but it’s only by the slimmest of margins.

    I have issues with characters who reject many aspects of their upbringing by consciously recognizing the hurtful elements, yet continue to wallow in patterns of behavior that reflect that damaging upbringing and thus keeping themselves from being their best self. Of course, I understand that this is a large part of the premise of this story, but that doesn’t make it any less annoying.

    Gannon’s upbringing is written as being entirely opposite from Paige’s and his characterization reflects that. He’s basically a decent guy who makes some boneheaded choices as regards his “wooing” of Paige.

    I guess my biggest issues is a book that takes too long to get to the inevitable HEA by walking too often and too long over the same ground, in this case Paige’s insecurities. Secondarily, the book lacks the humor that I have come to depend on in Ms. Score’s books. I did like the writing when Paige finally realizes that she order her own destiny as she sees fit and finally begins to act like a self-actualized adult.

    All-in-all, this book and this series is not one I’d recommend. I read Cat’s story before this one and I don’t like it any better.

    Mr. Fixer Upper is a fun, flirty, and emotionally satisfying read—classic Lucy Score. The chemistry between the leads crackles from the first chapter, and the slow burn is so worth the wait. Gannon is charming and frustrating in all the right ways, while Paige is sharp, driven, and refreshingly relatable.

    I loved the HGTV-inspired setup and the behind-the-scenes peek into home renovation and reality TV—it added a unique and entertaining twist to the romance. The banter was spot-on, and there were just enough emotional layers to give the story heart without weighing it down.

    My only minor critique is that a few plot points felt a little rushed toward the end, but it didn’t take away much from the overall enjoyment.

    A solid 4 stars for a steamy, feel-good escape that delivers on laughs, love, and just the right amount of drama.

    A time was HAD with this one!!🤭

    I initially started this one just to get to the sequel for the Christmas season, but once I dove into it, I was INTO IT! It really surprised me cause I usually don’t like books that are told from 3rd person POV, but it definitely WORKED for this one!

    You could definitely feel every type of tension from the two MC’s and I ate that up😂

    What can I say about Gannon King? Lemme just say we love a man who’s good with his hands😏😋 his love for Paige was literally so palpable, it was insane. Did he constantly put his foot in his mouth when it came to her? Yes. But what man doesn’t? But the difference between Gannon and other men is that Gannon MORE than made up for it (IYKYK)

    Now my ONLY complaint is how back and forth, hot and cold, etc etc the MMC, Paige, was. It was a lot of “will I or won’t I?” “should I or shouldn’t I?” It was really irritating like girl just PICK💀

    Big HOWEVER! I’d say the ending + the epilogue MORE than made up for that little bit of it.

    Now I will definitely say that the spice was SPICING🥵 so much so that my dad called my phone while I was in the middle of reading one of these scenes and I couldn’t pull myself together enough to have a coherent conversation😂🥲

    Overall, this book was so freaking AMAZING and I highly recommend it! This was my first Lucy Score book, but it definitely won’t be my last!

    A great storyline I loved this book. The build up, the tension, the misunderstandings and the total swoon worthy romantic moments between Paige and Gannon, you can see them falling for each other. I could not stop reading. Nothing about this story is guaranteed, there are twist, turns and barriers to overcome, it keeps the pace from slowing or becoming predictable. Eventually Paige realises she loves Gannon, a lovey HEA. Definitely worth the read, I have quite a few Lucy Score books and this doesn’t disappoint.

    This was my first Lucy Score book and it will not be my last. Before I dig into my next one i wanted to review this one.
    Lucy did a great job fleshing out believable characters that i could get invested in. She was able to develop a strong female lead without making her a raging ball buster and an alpha male who learned from his mistakes.
    From start to finish this book was engaging and well paced. If it weren't for my biological need for REM i would have finished this book in one sitting as I could not put it down.
    Now, in to my next Lucy Score novel. :)
