Sweet story
After listening to M.E. Carter's two book series, Change of Hart, I selected Juked because Change of Hart was so incredible and I wanted to sample more from this author.
Even though this book was not at the same level as Change of Hart, it was a feel good kind of book. There was enough chemistry between Daniel and Quinncy to keep me entertained and several interesting secondary characters to add to the story. I love stories about pro-athletes that meet a regular girl, but since I'm not a big soccer fan, Daniel's character was not as alpha sexy to me as some of the other books that I've read that have simular storylines (i.e. hockey, football or baseball).
Fortunately, our exceptional narrator, Joe Arden helps bring sexiness to the character with his gruff and totally hot voice. Joe is one of my personal favorites. He also does an excellent proformance when he speaks in Spanish or uses an occational Mexican American accent. He gives a five star proformance. I was not familiar with Simone. but, she really does an outstanding job as Quincy. Overall, I would give this a 4.5 rating.
Juked
I'm ashamed to say Juked has been on my TBR forever (reads 2 yrs). I bought it and forgot about it. I saw the upgrade for audiobook and jumped at it...but it still sat there.
Now comes the part where I'm ashamed. Juked is a great story. M.E. Carter had me in tears immediately. I loved the immediate bond formed with the main character.
In such a tough situation, M.E. Carter didn't pull any punches. It was rough, it was real, and it was eye opening.
I have to say the meeting between the Daniel and Quincy was probably one of my favorite meet cures. Juked is sweet, real, and a perfect escape.
Such a great storyline
This book had such a great storyline and I was so into listenig when BAM
it was over. I thought the ending was way too rushed. I mean the H gets cold feet , disappears with no contact for over a month.... that calls for some grovelling people! He can't just show back up, say I'm sorry and be invited in for coffee. But that's kinda what happened. I wanted....no.....needed her to at least be mad for a minute., tell him off, cut him off, something!!!! Such potential but was left unsatisfied in the end.
Cute story
Likeable characters.
