Chapter 17: He Told Me…

The Furious Martini: 6 Parts Gin, 2 Parts Dry Vermouth, 1/2 Teaspoon Pernod, 1 Dash Grenadine.
Things I learned about Tuck Martini on Day Nine of our relationship. The list stretched from the mundane to the most important:
He liked June because of the fresh beginning of summer. He said that there wasn’t anything better than the sweet smell of the wind and sugary ground. He told me that he could smell the color green. The strange thing about his comment was that I believed him.
His favorite television show as a child was Friends, watching it every Thursday night on NBC. He had a little crush on Chandler Bing, unable to keep his eyes off the actor.
His guilty pleasures were romance paperbacks by Nora Roberts, Debbie Maccomber, and Danielle Steel.
