Juked: verb.
/jook-t/
A slang soccer term meaning: faked out, deceived, confused your opponent

See examples Daniel Zavaro and Quincy Watson:

As the rising star in Houston, Daniel has found fame as captain of his pro soccer team and the city's most eligible bachelor. Daniel has everything - except someone special - and that suits him just fine. He doesn't want, or need, complications.

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.

good but not great

I picked this story because I liked Hart story from this author. This one is good but not great. The story does have potential but at times, I didn't feel like I can connect with the characters, even when there was supposed to be emotional. Not to mention, the heroin didn't stand up to Daniel as hard as I expected. after all, he kinda dumped her because of his insecurity. also, he was not there when she needed him the most, especially when he claimed her as his best friend. The performance was superb! they were the reason I kept listening. This story is not your usual romance but good for one time listen. If you decide to give it a try, enjoy!

SO MUCH MORE THAN I EXPECTED!!!

This book had a beautiful story wrapped up in it's cover! I really didn't expect it to be as good as it was and I'm pleasantly surprised at how it made me feel.

Unexpected Love

This is a sweet story about how life can change in the blink of an eye. I loved how the main character had enough self-worth to pull herself up by the bootstraps and always try to do what’s best for others.

More than I expected!

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I started this book, but was very pleasantly surprised and am now telling every one of my reader friend that they have to read it!
It’s got heartache. It’s got heat. It’s got all the messy involved in a young relationship and it was wonderful!

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! After listening to this story,. I totally enjoyed reading this book. It’s well written and the characters were uniquely fantastic. I would suggest this book to my friends that like this sort of genera. this was a good book. The narrator was great.

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 cutes. Juked is sweet, real, and a perfect escape.

It’s ok

It’s overall an ok story. Not something I’d listen to again. But one thing I couldn’t get past is the male narrators breathing. Once I heard him breath between words that’s all I could concentrate on. Breathy gulps. Drove me nuts.

HEART BREAK, FROM THE START .....

JUKED is quite an emotional book, where we first meet Quincy being given her a nephew she knew nothing about as her little sister who she'd brought up had suddenly died in a car crash & had put her as her next if kin & for Chance to go into Quincy's care
And this is when Soccer Star Daniel comes into their lives, just by chance, to help her with infant things like formula diapers & such likes. But then they bumped into each other again & they started a friendship, which I'd say was a beautiful one, including when it became a friends with benefits kind of one.
But then what a jerk did Daniel became after Chance called him Da-Da this one time. He just Cut All ties with them even though he called Quincy his best friend & it was during this time she needed him.
Tell You What if some one did that to me & said you were BF, would you be able to forgive them, even if you REALLY NEEDED THEM, WHEN CHANCE'S BIRTH FATHER DECIDED BECAUSE 'MUMMY' WANTS TO BE A GRANDMOTHER,
He decides to come & get the child he always knew was out there...
But here is when Daniel turns up thinking he'll be forgiven with a large bouquet of flowers....So Would You Forgive Them?? come & see if Quincy keeps hold of Chance & Forgives Daniel

ENJOYABLE AND SWEET

Since I’m in Houston this was a bit closer to my heart bcuz I love our soccer team. Overall the story is well written and narrated. The sex is not as hot as I like it but it was enough to make me say Ummmm. I think my followers will enjoy as a light Sunday listen.

Light but sweet .

I Like that this book's storyline is different than most books. I enjoyed seeing a woman portrayed as being strong and hurt without all the yelling and hateful talking. This is who more women in books should be like.
