Quincy has baggage, and lots of it. After a tragic accident spins her world on its axis, she finds herself as a single mother, raising a newborn nephew she never knew she had. Between parenthood, her full-time job, and dealing with the suffocating grief of losing her sister, every day is a struggle.
When they begin to cross paths unexpectedly and often, an unlikely friendship starts to evolve. Feelings change. Lines get crossed. What happens next surprises them both...
Before they know it-- they’ve been Juked.
“Then we have Daniel, aaah, sweet, funny and hot as hell Daniel, if only he was real *sigh*” - Goodreads Review “I cannot begin to tell you how much I loved this book! M.E. Carter has done is again with a fantastic sports romance…” - Goodreads Reviewer “"Juked" is a MUST read on your 2016 summer book list!” - Goodreads Review
Quincy Watson has given up her dreams so that her sister Sarah could have a better life. Their last conversation 7 months ago ended in a fight and now, after a tragic accident, she has guardianship over a nephew she didn't know existed.
Daniel Zavaro has everything he ever wanted. He's captain of the Texas Mutiny soccer club and can have a different girl every night if he chooses. Determined to never settle down, he's living his dream.
I loved Quincy's take no shit attitude. She was a strong character who was self sufficient and didn't let anything stop her. Daniel had a lot of hang ups with relationships but I was glad when he got his head out of his ass and realized what he had with Quincy was the real deal.
3.5 stars
“Mother, reader, storyteller - ME Carter never set out to write books. But when a friend practically forced a copy of Twilight into her hands, the love of the written word she had lost as a child was rekindled. With a story always rolling around in her head, it should come as no surprise that she finally started putting them on paper. She lives in Texas with her four children, Mary, Elizabeth, Carter and Bug, who sadly was born long after her pen name was created, and will probably need extensive therapy because of it.”
