GET HOOKED ON A GIRL NAMED FRED.
BOOK TRAILER
Good Dating Advice from Bad Boys
By Ryan Berenger,
lead character in Hooked
She was almost the one that got away.
I’m talking about my girlfriend, Fredricka Oday — or Fred, as
she prefers to be called. Fred was the
best thing to happen to me. I don’t know
what I’d do without her and, frankly, I hope to never find out.
I’m kind of apprehensive about giving dating advice since I
almost screwed it up with her. Bad. But if someone can learn from my mistakes, I’m
game. It probably makes sense to tell you
some of the things a guy shouldn't do.
And, spoiler alert, I know all these don’ts
up close and personal. So, listen
up.
Here goes:
- Don’t listen to the
“advice” of your best friend about girls.
- Don’t pretend to
ignore her when she sits right next to you on the bus. It’s lame.
- Don’t sit silently
when your soon-to-be ex-girlfriend makes insulting remarks about her.
- Don’t discount all
(maybe just some) of the Girlfriend Advice you get from your Dad. Remember that he was a teen too. Once. Hard as that is to imagine.
- Important! Don’t
let her leave your party before the party ends.
When she gets up to leave, run after her. Beg her to stay. Or leave with her.
- When you see her
before Homeroom at school, walk straight up to her and talk to her. Tell her she looks pretty, which she always
does. Don’t turn away. Enough with the pretending.
- Never, ever let
anyone call her names or bully her in any way.
Ever. Never, ever. Do you hear me?
- Finally, tell her you
love her, even if the Universe is working against you. You’re the only one knows your heart.
___________________________________________________________
I have to admit - Ryan, you have melted my heart!
I am so happy that Ryan was able to do what was right, let go, and freely love Fred!
Thank you, Ryan, for your sharing with us today :)

ABOUT THE AUTHOR - Liz Fichera
Liz is an American author living in the American Southwest by way of Chicago.
Born and raised in Park Ridge, Illinois, she moved to Phoenix, Arizona, after college, never expecting to live more than one year among cactus and people who’d never seen snow. She was wrong. It certainly didn't hurt that she met her future husband in Phoenix too.
Most of her stories are set in the American Southwest because she thinks the desert is a cool place. Living in Phoenix, she's surrounded by Native American culture and influences, not to mention intriguing Hohokam petroglyphs and centuries-old canals. There are over 20 tribes in Arizona and she's lucky to be neighbors to the Gila River and the Salt River Indian Communities.
When she's not busy writing her next novel, she likes to travel, visit museums, support local theater productions, hike, and pretend that she's training for a triathlon. She posts a lot of photos from her desert and mountain hikes on her Facebook and Twitter pages. In no particular order, she has been chased by javalinas, rattlesnakes, coyotes, and even one curious black bear. She would love to connect with you there too!

Thanks for sharing! This looks fun! Don't play sports... having no depth perception for reals (medical condition) made it too hard for me to want to!
ReplyDeleteI rally play sports since I'm more of a nerd than athletic types. However when I do I play tennis.
ReplyDeleteI'm a football girl, for sure! It's the only sport I enjoy watching.
ReplyDeleteHooked sounds like a really good book. I'll definitely be reading it.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds amazing, I really need to pick it up! Ryan sounds like a smart guy :-) I look forward to meeting him when I read this. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love Hockey the way they yell and hit each other on the ice and plus my hubby took me to my first hockey game on our first date it was awesome:)

ReplyDeleteI like hockey! I'm definitely a hockey girl, all other sports are somewhat boring, other than maybe football. I don't know, I think I like men fighting and tackling each other haha :)
ReplyDeleteI love baseball and football :)
ReplyDeleteLove tennis!
ReplyDeleteLove Tennis!
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, Badminton! We are a family obsessed with it and we play to the death (ok, not really, but close enough) all summer long :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a complete sucker for baseball. Which is a little unfortunate now that I live in the southern USA, where people gasp at any sport that's not football.
ReplyDeleteFootball!
ReplyDeleteFootball!<3
