Romance books have a way of weaseling their way into our cold, cold hearts and thawing them out. Oh wait, that’s just me? Maybe it’s this cold winter front blowing through Southern California and my lack of appropriate outerwear.
Anyway, whether you need romance books to thaw your icy heart or provide a temporary distraction from an otherwise wonderful life, here’s a new recommendation for 2022:
The Fixer Upper by Lauren Forsythe

Have you ever been in love? Aly has. Fifteen years ago to be exact. With her best friend… well, former best friend. See, she declared her love before speeding away faster than a shooting star, totally ghosting the poor guy. So, imagine her surprise when a social media superstar hires Aly to fix up her boyfriend–because that’s what Aly does as a fixer upper–only to discover it’s the one and only man she loved and left.
What does Aly do?
Option one: Apologize for the past and communicate her feelings.
Option two: Pretend not to know him as she “fixes him up.”
Any guesses?
No spoilers, but I will say hilarity and awkwardness ensue as the two fall back into orbit together. Luckily, Aly has a couple of friends to keep her in check… and by in check, I mean condone these nonsensical boyfriend-fixing shenanigans. I wish I had friends like this to be honest. I’d never be bored! I can confirm there is a happily ever after for all you folks who need something to look forward to.
This was a delight spin on classic, sweet, yet moderately formulaic romance. (It’s also worth mentioning it’s a clean romance without any down-n-dirty scenes. SFW).
