Tucker Wright's Clues for Life: What's a 4-letter word for an utterly oblivious, totally commitment-phobic, heartbreakingly gorgeous man with a pet pig named Bernadette? That'd be D-U-N-N, as in Dunn Johnson, my very best pal and fishing buddy since I moved to Licking Thicket. What's a 6-letter word for a nerdy, crossword-loving town doctor who's doomed to be hopelessly, thoroughly, irrevocably, in love with that straight best friend for the rest of his born days? That's T-U-C-K-E-R, as in me. But when I agree to let Dunn be my 24/7 dating coach, and he decides to get our whole nosy town in on the act, there's only one 5-letter word to describe the pair of us. F-O-O-L-S.

It was really cute but I felt like it dragged on a little long - I was ready to finish 75% in :/

Tucker and Dunn are friends. In fact, they are the very best of best friends. They do all the most important things together, hang out together, eat together, go to town festivals together. The only thing they do not do together is date. But all that changes at a town festival when they end up lip locked in front of their friends and family. Dunn only wants the very best for Tucker. He wants to find Tucker a man who is worth his salt and can give Tucker all the things Dunn can give him, plus the kissing. So the easiest solution, set him up on dates. Find the most perfect man for the greatest guy in the whole world. The only man Tucker wants is Dunn. But Dunn cannot reciprocate those feelings so he is left high a dry with a fighting pole and no bait. So he decides to entertain Dunn’s idea of setting him up on blind dates until he actually meets these “eligible” men. Is it too much to ask for Dunn to see Tucker as an option? We are back in Licking Thicket with all of our past favorites and this is my favorite novel thus far by the incomparable Lucy Lennox and May Archer. These ladies have continued to create laugh out loud moments in the Thicket that make me want to charter a bus and relocate. You can expect some farm-loving animal house pets, low-angst, best friend loving from this book, and a meddling family that means very well even when they do resort to kidnapping. All is alive and well in the Thicket!
