About Heroine Josephine

Josephine Doyle isn’t just a fangirl; she’s a beacon of positivity, whose unwavering support and sunny disposition light up even the most challenging days on the golf course.

About Male Love Interest Wells

Wells Whitaker is more than a troubled golfer; he’s a man battling his demons, striving to rediscover his former glory and prove that he still has what it takes to be a champion.

About the Story

In “Fangirl Down,” we dive into the tumultuous world of Wells Whitaker, a golfer who once dominated headlines as a rising star but now struggles with a dwindling career and a volatile temper.

Despite his downward spiral, one person remains steadfastly in his corner—Josephine Doyle. This vibrant and endlessly optimistic redhead has cheered for Wells at every tournament, believing in him when no one else would.

However, after a particularly disastrous game, Wells quits in frustration, and his most loyal fan vanishes from the stands. Realizing he’s lost more than just a game, Wells is determined to reclaim his life and career.

In a bold move, he tracks down Josephine and offers her an unconventional deal: become his caddy, help him revive his career, and in return, share the winnings. With her own life in disarray, Josephine sees this as a chance to turn things around—not just for Wells, but for herself as well. Together, they embark on a journey that tests their resilience and redefines their roles, both on and off the golf course.

A Touch of Reality

Josephine Doyle isn’t just a sunny sidekick; she’s a character that really brings to life the around-the-clock management of managing Type 1 Diabetes; it is not something that you can forget about or ignore.

Tessa Bailey, inspired by her daughter’s own experiences, dives into the nitty-gritty of what it means to live with T1D. We get a front-row seat to how everything and anything can impact one’s glucose levels: what you eat, did you work out or go for a run, are you stressed out.

It is constant vigilance of monitoring glucose and adapting sugar intake and insulin injections. No two days are the same. It is incredibly empowering to see a main character navigate this with such tenacity and realism. This layer of authenticity brings Josephine to life in a way that’s both genuine and relatable, adding depth to the story.
