Scintillating Summer Read: Lucky in Love

Lucky in Love by Jill Shalvis
Reviewed by Cassandra, Collection Management Librarian

Lucky in Love is the fourth book in the Lucky Harbor series and another funny, romantic, steamy story. Ty Garrison is a great alpha male - sexy, troubled, strong yet vulnerable - my idea of the perfect hero. Mallory Quinn is a wonderful heroine - compassionate, independent, smart - and she is troubled and vulnerable. I enjoyed the way their relationship developed, the way they had each other's backs, unconditionally, regardless of the situation. Their sexual chemistry is off the charts and their romance, not easily earned, but well deserved.

There are so many things to love about Jill Shalvis' stories, but what I've come to appreciate most is that, without fail, I can count on her to deliver something unique. How she delivers it is the true magic of her writing, but the fact that she does so, again and again, is what keeps me coming back for more.

Look out for more books in the series to be published throughout the summer.
