<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> The delightful "New York Times"-bestselling author returns with a hilarious novel about one woman's quest to redo an old house . . . and her life. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p><strong>"Entirely satisfying, an expert balance of warmth and compassion, terrific supporting characters, a little steamy sex, and just enough suspense to keep you from guessing how it will all go down. --<em>Atlanta Journal-Constitution</em></strong></p><p>A sassy, sexy, sometimes poignant look at small town Southern life, as only <em>New York Times</em> bestseller Mary Kay Andrews can tell it, <em>The Fixer Upper</em> is a must-read for fans of Fannie Flagg, Sophie Kinsella, the Ya-Yas, and the Sweet Potato Queens, and for every reader obsessed with decorating and home repair. It is a truly delectable story of a woman whose professional fall from grace lands her back in a hometown she never knew, amongst a gothic Southern family she's never met, and saddled with a task she could never have imagined.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br> <p>After her boss is caught in a political scandal, fledgling Washington lobbyist Dempsey Jo Killebrew is left broke, unemployed, and homeless. Out of options, she reluctantly accepts her father's offer to help turn Birdsong--the fading Victorian mansion he recently inherited in Guthrie, Georgia--into a real estate cash cow. But Birdsong turns out to be a moldering Pepto-Bismol-pink dump with duct-taped windows, a driveway full of junk, and a grumpy distant relation who's claiming squatter's rights. Stuck in a tiny town where everyone seems to know her business, Dempsey grits her teeth and rolls up her sleeves, and begins her journey back to the last place she ever expected: home. </p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "This authentic tale of cleaning up life's messes and self-discovery is bright, engaging and thoughtful, enlivened by Andrews's quirky characters and lovely backwoods setting."--<em>Publishers Weekly</em> </br></br>"A summer read that's guaranteed to satisfy your thirst for Southern fiction at its best."--<i>Daytona Beach News-Journal</i> </br></br>"Andrews serves up a tempting and satisfying dish."--<i>Booklist</i> </br></br>"Entertaining....Delightful."--<i>Library Journal</i> </br></br>"Entirely satisfying, an expert balance of warmth and compassion, terrific supporting characters, a little steamy sex and just enough suspense to keep you from guessing how it will all go down....As ever, Andrews injects a brisk tale with generous doses of her sassy trademark humor."--Atlanta Journal-Constitution
