#FitReaders: Weekly Check-in July 3 2015 and Tucker by Juliana Stone review


Join in :D


Sun No idea. I guess I biked or walked?
Mon, 1 h bike, 1 h yoga
Tue, 1.20 h bike, 1 h workout class
Wed, 1 h yoga, 1 h bike
Thu, 1 h bike
Fri nothing

Sigh, I got a fever on Thursday and the worst sore throat ever. But then I have been somewhere everyday so no wonder if someone infected me.


..........................................

When all hope is gone, can love still find a way? 

Tucker Simon has given up on love. After a tragedy, it’s just not in the cards for him, and he wishes his family would get off his back. He’s fine—or at least he thought he was--until a family wedding forces him to address a few things, namely his date, Abby Mathews. She's been put in the ‘friend’ category, mostly because she deserves so much more than what he can give. But the more time that he spends with her, Tucker begins to think that maybe there is a chance for love after all... 

Abby Mathews has been in love with Tucker Simon since he walked into her family’s bar nearly a year ago. But he’s got baggage and heartache a plenty. His one-night-stands aren't going to lessen that no matter what he thinks. Tucker needs a friend, but Abby wants to give him more, and as they navigate their way through a weekend in Florida, their attraction can’t be ignored. Abby has to make a choice. Does she cherish their friendship and take what she can get? Or does she go after what she really wants, which is Tucker’s heart… 

My thoughts:
I have no idea how the Simons's are rich, I guess that was in the Barker books? Eh, who knows. Seems they have money.

Tucker has issues. His wife went missing. He loves them and leaves them now.

Abby has issues. She has been in love with Tucker for months now. They are just friends, which is good, but she loves him.

He needs a date to get his mum off his back. Abby says yes.

We meet a bunch of Simons at a wedding. Sparks fly between Abby and Tucker. But can they get over the whole, my wife is missing!? Can I love again?! Duh, it's a romance, of course he can love again. And so they lived happily ever after. The end.

Conclusion:
Cute.

  11. "Duh, it's a romance" - lol!! :))) Again, excellent progress for you and your amazing exercising routines! I'm trying zumba next week - hopefully. Haven't done much last week, just pigged out on birthday cake and Mom food (she's visiting, and boy, does she cook...!) Cute story, as you say, awesome review, as ever. Have a great week, Linda!

      Ohh zumba is fun! Well the first 2 times were brutal and I stopped for 2 years. But then I tried again with another teacher and it was so fun!

  14. Do hope you are feeling better.

    And I noticed I forgot to add my second day of exercise on my post yesterday. I did two hours of cutting grass, and on a terribly steep hill!

    Hope you have a good week this week.
