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?

Josephine and Wells…What can I say about those two? Expect that I completely fell in love with both characters. I loved their relationship; they had become one of my favorite sports romance couples. I believe the two of them balanced each other out. I adored that their relationship began with Josephine being his number one fan; given how he acted, I was shocked she supported him for so long. I might have loved him later in the book, but that’s not how it started out. I did not like him in the beginning; the way that he acted, I wasn’t surprised that nobody wanted anything to do with him later. I wondered if Josephine would agree to be his caddie even if she didn't need the money. I loved how passionate and seriously she took the job and sent positive vibes his way, even when Wells wasn’t sure of himself. You couldn’t help but love Josephine.
At first, I couldn't help but imagine how their relationship would work, given how different Wells was from Josephine. I also didn't like how he sometimes treated her, which seemed very controlling. I understand he thought he was protecting her, but that is not what I noticed. As the book progressed, Wells changed, and I knew Josephine was the reason behind his change. My view of Wells changed, and it was harder to dislike him. Instead, I found myself rooting for him through his tour and for him and Josephine. I've read a few sports romances in the past. Fangirl Down was the first to feature golf and a Type 1 diabetes character. I liked how both characters were interested in golf in different ways and wondered why they bonded so quickly.
Their relationship moved a bit too fast. I felt that it didn’t have enough time to develop. I adored their relationship, though. Part of me hopes they make an appearance in the next book in the series. I have been hearing about Tessa Bailey for a while, and I’m glad that Fangirl Down was the first book that I read by her. I loved Josephine’s best friend Tallulah, and I love Hockey, so I’m excited to read The Au Pair Affair. I am eager to check the rest of the author’s books. I would highly recommend this for romance fans.
