Anyone has ever read a romance knows how this story goes. The fun of the book is that even though the reader knows it’s only a matter of time until Ty realizes his future lies with Mallory, Ms. Shalvis tells that story with panache and humor. This is a very witty — I laughed out loud countless times reading Lucky in Love — and terrifically well-written book. The secondary characters — and the town counts as one — are hilarious and differentiated. Fans of the earlier books will love seeing Lucky Harbor’s denizens again at their meddling best. Lucky in Love is also one of the hottest books I’ve read by Ms. Shalvis. Mallory and Ty burn up the sheets (and the pages) with regularity and these scenes are sizzling.
Lucky in Love isn’t the best contemporary I’ve ever read. It isn’t even the best contemporary Ms. Shalvis has written. That’s just fine. It’s a damn good time. Kick off your shoes, grab some chocolate of your own or pour yourself a glass of wine, settle into a comfortable chair, and read Lucky in Love.

Love Dame Nora? This is an older fun one.
Ms. Roberts does many things right in the start of her new trilogy. The bond between the three men is especially nice. We see them grow from normal, everyday kids, excited over a clandestine camping trip to the men they have become. They are friends who also share a large burden, each handling the stress in different ways.
The thing that kept me hooked and not wanting to put the book down, is the mystery of the Seven and how and what is going to happen next. Bits and pieces about the past and the gifts that the boys received after that fateful night are doled out. Many questions are left unanswered and we don’t get anywhere near a resolution here making me doubly anxious to get my hands on the next in the series.
