The Fixer Upper

 Mary Kay Andrews is the author of The Fixer Upper. Golly this book had me laughing out loud as I drove around Texas. Maybe I will stick to humorous books for audio books for a time. Dempsey Jo Killebrew is an assistant in a lobbyist office. She gets caught in a scandal and has to leave town. The FBI finds her in a small town in Guthrie, Georgia where she is temporarily living. Her father wants her to fix this house up so they can sell it and split the profits. Dempsey learns new skills such as scraping the paint off of pine cabinets and using a sander to sand the kitchen floor. Nobody could learn those skills that fast but this is fiction so there you go. I totally enjoyed the book. One part of the surprise ending was unbelievable though. The FBI would NEVER do what the author wrote they did.
