The Fix

"Wow! Sylvie Stewart's debut novel is a winner...It's romantic comedy at its best." -Vicki Vaught, Author "I totally enjoyed this book...some of the things...had me literally laughing out loud.

Laney Monroe's life looks nothing like she'd planned. She certainly hadn't pictured herself as a twenty-five-year-old single mom with a boring job, a freeloading brother, and an exhibitionist son who worries more than Shaggy and Scooby Doo put together. When her brother finally steps up and applies for a job, Laney never imagines it might lead to an opportunity for her as well - an opportunity at love. Nate Murphy has always been about family. When you come from an Irish family, it's hard not to be. But when a family emergency brings him home to North Carolina, Nate is faced with some difficult choices. Can you choose what you want over what your family needs? Then Laney Monroe walks onto his construction site and Nate decides that she just might make those choices a hell of a lot easier - or maybe this girl will make life more complicated than ever. "The Fix" is the first book in The Carolina Connections Series from Sylvie Stewart. It can be read as a standalone with a HEA. The debut novel, "The Fix," in this series from Sylvie Stewart is a new addition to the much celebrated genre of Romantic Comedy as represented by treasured authors such as Alice Clayton, Tara Sivec, Emma Chase, and R.L. Mathewson. This book contains language and sexual content not suitable for those under 18.

The Fix is the first book in the Carolina Connections series by Sylvie Stewart and is a four star read. This is the author’s debut novel and what a debut it is! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I loved the authors writing style and her storylines are really great, they flow nicely and dialogue is smooth and realistic. The combination of humour with real life problems along with a lot of romantic moments is well balanced. I laughed out loud at so many moments in this story, provided by Laney, the main charecter and her best friend Fiona. The charecters are great, they come across as down to earth and realistic and are normal people dealing with normal, real-life issues. It is a great quick read. Laney’s life hasn’t been easy; she is a single mom, stuck in a boring job and living with her brother who is a bit of a freeloader. When her brother eventually steps up and finds a job Laney doesn’t expect what might possibly happen as a result. Nate has moved back home to look after the family business after a family emergency. I loved Laney – she is a fantastic charecter. She is making the most out of what life has dealt her. She has some cute funny moments and the relationship she has with her son Rocco is great. He is just hilarious. Nate is a bit alpha male but he is patient with Laney and I loved the effort he went with her son so they had a great relationship. I did really enjoy this book and will be reading more from this author.
