Armed with a few tips from Westport's resident Casanova, Hannah sets out to catch her coworker's eye. In fact, she's nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life. She knows he's a notorious ladies' man, but they're definitely just friends. Now, Hannah's in town for work, crashing in Fox's spare bedroom. But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is. personality? And wants to be friends? Bizarre. She's immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his. Everyone knows he's a guaranteed good time-in bed and out-and that's exactly how he prefers it. King crab fisherman Fox Thornton has a reputation as a sexy, carefree flirt. In the follow-up to It Happened One Summer, Tessa Bailey delivers another deliciously fun rom-com about a former player who accidentally falls for his best friend while trying to help her land a different man. AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES AND #1 USA TODAY BESTSELLER Of course, a guy like Landon could never fall for someone like me. What would he think if he knew I craved his best friend’s dad? I’m playing with fire, but I can’t turn off these feelings Landon has unlocked inside of me. Falling for him puts each fragile moment I’ve rebuilt with my son at risk. Landon draws me in without even trying, and the harder I fight this, the deeper I fall.Ĭrushing on my son’s best friend’s father must be my biggest parenting failure ever, but I can’t get enough of Landon. I’ve never been attracted to men in my life… until him. My son is opening up, too, little by little. Now I’m spending all my free time with the team-and with Landon-and the more we’re together, the deeper our friendship grows. Volunteering might give him and me a chance to rebuild what’s broken between us. And though I know nothing about football, Landon convinces me to volunteer to be closer to my son. Landon’s son and mine are best friends and- of course-Landon is the football Team Dad. He’s such a Super Dad, it’s almost sickening. He and his son-the high school’s all-star quarterback-have the perfect father-son relationship. Landon Larsen is the envy of all the dads in Last Waters, Texas. Strauss’s Guru attempts “mix spirituality with business” and then says, “Let me know if you have any ET experiences in Peru.” I wish I could say that I always follow common sense. At one moment, meeting a woman who presents herself as a guru, “Common sense tells me to leave curiosity drives me forward.” That’s the writer coming out. Strauss meets people whose new-age and pseudo-religious or -mystical bullshit is vile. The chase is about women, yes, but it’s also about finding a way to be. Score one for free will or something like it. Strauss, seeking answers, gets what appears to be an fMRI, hoping that his brain makes hedonic and novelty-seeking, only to be told that he chooses relationships or the chase. The treatment does not work, at least at first. In the first section, we learn that there is such a thing as “a CSAT,” that is, “a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist.” The therapists seem at least as mad as the patients, which seems to be a recurring theme in life (you know what they say about psych majors…). Get past the first third and pay special attention to the rest, where Strauss’s sharp, comedic / absurdist observations strike. Unfortunately, The Truth buries the lede: the weakest, most tedious section by far is the beginning, when Strauss goes to therapy for “sex addiction” (which may not exist, at least for reasonable definitions of “exist”).* Don’t give up. The Truth is poorly named but it’s also amazing and you should read it, preferably in the biblical, imitation-leather edition. You’ll need playing cards, some paper and a pencil for this game. Our reading took a bit of a detour as we played a few rounds of this fast moving game. I learned through a bit of research that Whist is in fact a real card game and was quite popular in the 18th and 19th centuries. My children thought Whist was an interesting word and wondered if the author made it up or if it was an actual card game. Around the World in 80 Days GameĪs this classic story begins, we learn that the main character, Phileas Fogg, is a quiet man who spends most of his days at the Reform Club reading the paper and playing Whist. Hopefully, they help you enjoy the journey of Phileas Fogg. Here are a few of the hands-on activities we included when we read this classic novel. "Immersive and engaging.
