Architect Lydia McKenzie might as well be allergic to exercise. When her office crush announces he’s starting a work team to run the NYC Marathon as charity outreach, Lydia impulsively adds her name to his list. Now she’s going to need some serious help so she doesn’t embarrass herself—or worse. Enter personal trainer Luke Townsend. Creating individual training programs for clients is his specialty, and he knows that with a little help and a lot of commitment, Lydia will definitely be able to cross the finish line in a few short months. As Lydia and Luke spend more time together, the lines between their professional and personal relationships start to blur. When Lydia’s work crush proposes a partnership that just might extend beyond the office, she has a choice to make—keep going as she has been or take a risk and move her life—and love—in a new direction.
VERDICT Hrib’s (Flirting with Disaster) latest is a swoony, often laugh-out-loud read about believing in yourself and taking chances and not giving up at the first obstacle to success.
