Summary
June Hart is an affectionate and chatty first-grade teacher who comes from a family of money-hungry doctors。 When June inherits her grandmother’s 1920’s farmhouse， she is compelled to remodel it， hoping to show her egotistical family she is capable of being more than an insubstantial teacher。
In the process， she finds herself spending a considerable amount of time with her hot and ill-tempered contractor， Grant Dawes。
Grant Dawes is a grouchy handyman who can seem to fix everything except his troubled past。 His lack of family and friends leaves him to put all of his focus on restoring homes。 That is until a polka dot， crocheting， vanilla coke-obsessed client pushes her way in to throw off his routines。
When he falls for his sweet-natured client， June Hart， Grant is forced to confront his complicated history to have a future with her。

Pretty cute， but I did feel like a few things were sort of just glossed over--mentioned and resolved without enough in-between。 I fiund myself skimming， but this could also be because I read the ebook， and oftentimes lose focus with e-reading。 Grant and June were very cute together and I enjoyed his letters and the epilogue。 Beau and Ashley were super neat as well。 Overall I definitely think this is worth the read and would recommend it to any of you grumpy x sunshine lovers。

This is sooooo cute， but just lacked a little… Usually the grumpy trope takes a little longer to come around/develop; this was just a little too quick。

This book was just super cute & adorable！ Young growing love！ Grant a grumpy contractor & June a teacher full of joy。 They seem like the oddest couple but fate has it’s way！ Check out this indie author！

Cute story from a debut author。 Needs a lot of polish and fleshing out though。 Odd segue ways， time gaps and clunky writing in parts。

Book Review:2。5 StarsThe cover of this book was absolutely adorable。 And the premise was a basic grumpy x sunshine， enemies to lovers， but unfortunately it just fell flat。Grant was a very surface character to me and it made it hard to believe when he became protective of June or in love with her。 I was distracted by how often the book changed tenses and by the sheer amount of descriptions everywhere。 As a reader you were constantly just being told things instead of letting them develop。Overall t Book Review:2。5 StarsThe cover of this book was absolutely adorable。 And the premise was a basic grumpy x sunshine， enemies to lovers， but unfortunately it just fell flat。Grant was a very surface character to me and it made it hard to believe when he became protective of June or in love with her。 I was distracted by how often the book changed tenses and by the sheer amount of descriptions everywhere。 As a reader you were constantly just being told things instead of letting them develop。Overall this book felt rushed and needed some refining。 Unfortunately this just wasn’t for me。 。。。more

I hate writing bad reviews， so I'll start of with what was good。-The characters were adorable。 June was relatable in the fact that she lets everyone walk all over her and I totally get the people-pleaser vibe。 -Grant was such a grump and I was into that。 He had a few memorable lines that were 🔥。-The angst and confusion over their relationship was there and I tend to like that。- The length。 This could be a cute， short binge read if a little more time was spent on it。-The cover is fantastic！The re I hate writing bad reviews， so I'll start of with what was good。-The characters were adorable。 June was relatable in the fact that she lets everyone walk all over her and I totally get the people-pleaser vibe。 -Grant was such a grump and I was into that。 He had a few memorable lines that were 🔥。-The angst and confusion over their relationship was there and I tend to like that。- The length。 This could be a cute， short binge read if a little more time was spent on it。-The cover is fantastic！The reason this is a 2 star review， is because of the lack of editing。 I am the queen of typos， so i can get behind a book with a few， because that's understandable。 Unfortunately with this， I was too distracted by the amount of typos， the writing randomly switching from past tense to present tense， and how hard it was to understand who was speaking during the dialogue。 I simply felt I was working a too hard to edit things in my head so I could understand。 One time I read the same sentence twice and thought I had just zoned out and started the sentence over， but as it turned out， the sentence really was just written twice and the editor failed to notice。 It felt more like a first draft。 If all of that was fixed， then it would be a lovely story。 I'd say don't stop writing， but get a better editor， maybe a few different sets of eyes， and do a few more drafts before print。 。。。more

loved this！！Such a sweet grumpy/sunshine， closed door romance。 I adored Grant and June and their journey to HEA！ HGTV lovers and small town romance aficionados will enjoy this sugary sweet love story。 Bring me more Juliana Smith！！ I am a sucker for a tortured hero with a big heart who secretly pines for the heroine。 Loved this one！

I’m a sucker for a cute cover。 I’m also a sucker for a book that involves restoring old homes。 Unfortunately， these two characteristics couldn’t save this book for me。 I saw it all over Bookstagram， and I decided to give a debut author a shot。 It was cute-ish？？？ Sometimes too cute， a little lacking in depth and character development。 Short at under 200 pages， so an ok first effort， but definitely not a re read for me。

This book was so sweet！ It made me cry and squeal and jump around。 It was such a cute story and I just couldn’t get over ever time he said “I can fix that”。 I have said this about a lot of books but it is one of my new favorites。 Definitely top read for the summer 🥰🥰

I Can Fix That is a sweet story about a grade-school teacher who inherits a house and the contractor that’s helping her fix it up。This is a grumpy/sunshine， wholesome small town romance。 I wanted to love this story soooo much and while there were aspects that I enjoyed， I just struggled to connect， and If I can’t connect with characters， I can’t really get into a story。All the renovation talk was fun and we love a man who’s willing to do anything and everything， which was 100% the MMC。 And the f I Can Fix That is a sweet story about a grade-school teacher who inherits a house and the contractor that’s helping her fix it up。This is a grumpy/sunshine， wholesome small town romance。 I wanted to love this story soooo much and while there were aspects that I enjoyed， I just struggled to connect， and If I can’t connect with characters， I can’t really get into a story。All the renovation talk was fun and we love a man who’s willing to do anything and everything， which was 100% the MMC。 And the fact that he actually says “I can fix that” and then follows through？My husband could learn a thing or two from him 😂 Overall， it was a sweet romance， but it just wasn’t totally for me。 。。。more

This book was not enjoyable and I stopped at the 30% mark。 I found June to be incredibly insecure， stupid and child like， definitely not a 24 year old mentality。 She complained about how she never did right with her parents and was never given the chance to say “no” before being volunteered for everything and yet she just went with it。 I also found her obsession over if Grant remembered her from a year ago very weird。 I like my female leads to be a bit more assertive and confident。 Found Grant t This book was not enjoyable and I stopped at the 30% mark。 I found June to be incredibly insecure， stupid and child like， definitely not a 24 year old mentality。 She complained about how she never did right with her parents and was never given the chance to say “no” before being volunteered for everything and yet she just went with it。 I also found her obsession over if Grant remembered her from a year ago very weird。 I like my female leads to be a bit more assertive and confident。 Found Grant to be an arse initially， but he was slowly showing redeemable qualities， shame June ruined it for me。 。。。more
