Chelsea Wyatt, a single mom trying to build a life for her and her son, is sick of the body she sees in the mirror. A daily diet of Cookie Crisp cereal is not doing wonders for her mood or her figure, and it’s time for a change. Setting out to get fit, she commits herself to a daily walking plan, forcing herself to give up her all-sugar and carb diet, a difficult task at her donut obsessed job.
But her plan goes sideways when a stumble on the ice puts her in the arms of Jay, an attractive young man out on a run. They grab coffee together, and Chelsea finds herself thinking about him long after their short meeting. The thought of dating again hadn’t crossed her mind in years, and she doesn’t even know if Jay is available, or if he would be interested in her despite her unfit body.
Just when she has a handle on her new routine, her past catches up with her, throwing her blossoming relationship with Jay and the rest of her life into chaos. Can Chelsea hold onto the people she loves most, or will a wrong turn set her up for failure?
This is book 2 of the Pastime Pursuits series, and can be read as a stand-alone novel.
MY REVIEW
After reading Tracy's first book in this series, Caching In, I couldn't wait to see what happened to Miss Chelsea! The last time I knew she was pregnant with Daniel's and I felt for the poor girl!
Being a single mom myself, it is not an east life to lead! Lots of odds are stacked against you, but let me tell you how gratifying it is when you BEAT those and you succeed! It's not an overnight success but each little step really is a HUGE success!
Chelsea is doing everything she can to make sure that her son James has the best life possible! After all she is the one parent that he has to rely on after his father Daniel walked out of their lives before they ever met!
One day Chelsea decides, what better way to insure a great life for her son, then to start taking care of herself and getting in shape! She wants to start slow, walking it is!
Then one day she "runs" into a pretty gorgeous guy while out walking, Jay, and sparks fly!
So many questions are running through her head, is she ready to date? Will she tell him about James?
Then in the midst of her new found happiness - Daniel comes back into her life. RUN CHELSEA RUN!
This story has so many twists and turns as well as so many emotional highs and lows, it keeps you coming back for more!
MY WINE SELECTION
What perfect way to celebrate a new love, then a picnic in the park and what better to have with a picnic then I nice, refreshing light wine - a crisp Riesling!
MY RATING
For this AMAZING and STRONG single mom who would do anything for her son! - 5 glasses of wine ( I never wanted the story to end or the wine for that matter!)
