You’re sitting on the closed lid of the toilet seat, laptop on your lap, stuffing your earphones further into your ears because you can’t bear the bass anymore. I see you, at twenty two, hiding in the bathroom of the shitty studio you never wanted to rent in the first place.
Read more about The Fixer Upper and enter to win a copy below! Lauren is here to share a letter she’s written to her past fixer upper self, which ties so nicely into her new book! I think it’s such a lovely letter, and perhaps you might be able to see yourself (past or present) in it. And, of course, Aly’s client thinks he needs some changing when Aly has always thought he’s already as perfect as can be. Our heroine, Aly, runs this service and gains a client whose boyfriend is none other than Aly’s childhood best friend. As Aly tackles her biggest “fixer upper” yet, she’ll have to come to terms with their complicated history and figure out how much to change someone she’d always thought was perfect as he is.I’m so excited to have Lauren Forsythe, author of The Fixer Upper, on the blog today! The Fixer Upper is Lauren’s debut, and is a romantic comedy about an underground service that does the emotional labor for women whose partners need some help. There’s just one catch-he’s also Aly’s childhood best friend and first love. Before long, a high-profile Instagram star hires them to fix up her app developer boyfriend. Using little tricks and tips, Aly and her friends get the men to do the work themselves-to get out of the job they hate, sign up for that growth seminar, do more parenting. So, Aly decides to put her talents to good use and, alongside two work friends, sets up the Fixer Upper, an exclusive, underground service for women who are tired of unpaid emotional labor. After a chance meeting with an ex who has gone from living in his parents’ basement to being a married project manager in three years, she realizes she’s been fixing her boyfriends, too.
In this funny and sharp romantic comedy, a woman with a knack for turning her boyfriends’ lives around starts a professional service to help wrangle men, only to be unexpectedly matched with an old flame.Įver since she can remember, Aly has been fixing everything around her: her parents’ marriage, her colleagues’ work problems, and her friends’ love lives are just a few examples.
