Synopsis
When Kelly Reynolds’s husband died, he left her—the awkward, cautious one—to raise their two young boys. She’s pieced herself back together, barely. Now she takes refuge in her routine: running her kids around and running the trails near her Idaho home.
Two years after her husband’s death, a chance encounter on a run brings Andrew into her life. But Andrew is Andy Pettigrew, the Andy Pettigrew, famous actor. Kelly hates risk, and a love affair with Andrew is certainly tempting fate. She doesn’t fit into his Hollywood world. She doesn’t own a pair of Louboutins, and she couldn’t walk five paces in them if she did. Andrew oozes cool. She reeks of dork.
But despite this, they click. It may be inexplicable, but it works. However, it’s also becoming clear that Andrew struggles with the pressures of his fame. Kelly’s hold on a so-called normal life is already tenuous, and as much as she might want to indulge the fantasy, she doesn’t know how either of them is supposed to cope with stalkerazzi and tweet-happy fans with camera phones. She and Andrew both have secrets that seem impossible to keep.
Beck Anderson’s witty, engaging writing yields an emotional tale of love, loss, and all the little things that make up a life. In the end, what is it that really holds us together? Kelly must decide if love can fix two people who might be broken beyond repair.

My Review
Losing
someone special is one of the hardest things to deal with in our lives,
particularly when it is your Husband and Father of your young children, this is
exactly what happens to Kelly Reynolds.
Some people
never really recover from such loss, and when we start out in this book that’s exactly
where Kelly is, lost in her loss, seeing no future other than surviving day to
day and raising her two young boys.
Andrew Pedigrew
is a star, cool, handsome and sort after, what does he possibly see in
her. She questions why he would want
her, given his lifestyle and opportunities, but he does.
Theirs however
is not an easy journey, I had no idea if they would get their HEA, and at one
point in the book it didn’t seem that it was possible that they would.
No spoilers
here so you will have to read Kelly & Andrew’s story but I can assure you,
you will enjoy the journey they take but tissues will most definitely be
required, and once you’re in you won’t want to come out until you’ve read it
all.
About the Author
Beck Anderson believes in the power of perfectly imperfect women and in the healing power of love. Her new novel, Fix You, grew out of those beliefs and the time to write afforded by the worst Thanksgiving blizzard she’s ever witnessed in West Yellowstone.
For Beck, the path to published novelist has taken lots of twists and turns, including a degree in anthropology, a stint as a ticket seller at a ski resort, a much-loved career as a high school English teacher, and a long tenure as a member of the best writing group ever, hands down.
Beck balances (clumsily at best) writing novels and screenplays, working full-time as an educator, mothering two pre-teen males, loving one post-40 husband, and making time to walk the foothills of Boise, Idaho, with Stefano DiMera Delfino Anderson, the suavest Chihuahua north of the border.
