Synopsis:
Is
it love, or is she just his good luck charm?
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Helena Hunting absolutely delights with this witty and fun standalone contemporary romance.
Lilah isn't sure what hurt worse: the day Ethan left her to focus on his hockey career, or the day he came back eight years later. He might think they can pick up just where they left off, but she's no longer that same girl and never wants to be again.
Ethan Kane wants his glory days back. And that includes having Lilah by his side. With her, he was magic. They were magic. All he has to do is make her see that.
Just when Lilah might finally be ready to let him in, though, she finds out their reunion has nothing to do with her and everything to do with his game. But Ethan's already lost her once, and even if it costs him his career, he'll do anything to keep from losing her again.

Who
doesn’t love a good second chance romance? Lilah and Ethan seemed
like they were meant for each other from the very beginning. They
grew up together and Lilah always spent time at Ethan’s home. His
parents were like her parents. Everything changes though
when
Ethan gets drafted into the NHL and he decides to
break
up with her. Lilah, naturally is heartbroken. She’s young, but
Ethan was her whole world. They
were each other’s first loves. How
do you move on from that?
Fast-forward
to 8 years later and things
have definitely changed.
Lilah is
loving her job as a Nurse and planning to get her Master’s.
Unfortunately,
she’s also
in
the process
of getting a divorce. She’s in an emotional place right now.
Especially when Ethan comes back into town. It’s obvious that
they still
have
feelings
for each
other.
Ethan wants to apologize and set the record straight, but
despite their ever-present connection, Lilah
isn’t too sure she is ready to hear anything he has to say. She was
hurt deeply when he left. I don’t think she ever fully got over
that. However,
circumstances and a well meaning, but semi-pushy sister keep bringing
these two together until they are able to hash out the past.
Ethan
is very determined to make things right. He is a big believer that
things happen for a reason and he wants to show Lilah that they can
be good for each other again. If
she is willing to take a chance. Is she willing or able to let go
of
the past and embrace a new future with Ethan? Can these two finally
get it right, the second time around?
The
Good Luck Charm is
a sweet second chance romance story that had me rooting for Lilah and
Ethan straight away. There wasn’t a ton of drama (which is how I
like it), but theses characters did start to annoy me with their
behavior. There were times when I wanted to shake them and say “Hey,
don’t screw this up.”
All
in all I liked the story, especially the ending. It was perfect IMO.
This was the
first book I had read by this author and I am excited to find other
books by her. I
would say this is a good summertime read, but since summer is almost
ending, I’ll say if you’re looking for a good sports romance,
then The Good Luck
Charm
is one to check out.
RATING:
3½ out of 5.
