Description: #1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey launches a super sexy sports romance series with a rom-com about a bad boy professional athlete who falls for his biggest fan...
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?
My Thoughts: This sports romance stars Wells Whitaker who is a golfer. Once a rising star, he has fallen on hard times. He's drinking too much, fighting too much, and losing too often. It also stars Josephine Doyle who was Wells' biggest fan. She showed up at his tournaments and cheered him on even when is was playing and behaving badly. But when Wells has on final tantrum and walks off the course in the middle of a tournament, Josephine has had enough.

My Thoughts: This sports romance stars Wells Whitaker who is a golfer. Once a rising star, he has fallen on hard times. He's drinking too much, fighting too much, and losing too often. It also stars Josephine Doyle who was Wells' biggest fan. She showed up at his tournaments and cheered him on even when is was playing and behaving badly. But when Wells has on final tantrum and walks off the course in the middle of a tournament, Josephine has had enough.
Josephine has enough problems of her own. The latest hurricane has destroyed her family's pro shop after she has let the insurance lapse. It was a choice of paying for the insurance or paying for the insulin she needs for her Type 1 diabetes. She's also let her health insurance lapse and is forced to medicate her diabetes out of pocket.
At her lowest, Wells comes to her with a crazy idea. He'll hire her to be his caddy. He hopes to turn his game around, but mostly he wants to help out his biggest fan.
The two fall in love and there are lots of spicy (maybe very spicy) love scenes. But they still have real problems to solve. Josephine needs to be two places at once. She needs to caddy and she needs to be at home working on repairing her pro shop. As a caddy, she is helping Wells with his game, his temper, and his attitude, but she's feeling guilty for what she has left behind since it is her family's legacy.
Wells needs Josephine with him but recognizes that she has other responsibilities. This creates a lot of tension between them.
This was an entertaining sports romance with quite a bit of depth. Fans of the genre will enjoy the story.
