This was a Goodreads giveaway, so I am offering up my review.
This was my first fantasy romance novel. It took me a minute to grasp the new world I was in, but I really liked it. I wish there was more narrative around the main character, for some reason I kept picturing her as a teenage - but she's not!
I really liked the story, the mystery and the ending. No spoilers but I pre-ordered the sequel before I finished the book. So glad this came my way!

Zoomed through this book!
Seven is super swoony with a heartbreaking backstory. Sophia is a headstrong female lead. The book sucked me in and I read through it in a day. I was able to predict one story line, but I think it was purposely made to be that way. I’m curious how the next book will handle it.
I contemplated giving more stars but I didn’t because some dialogue seemed awkward, Sophia’s over all story could have been tighter, and at times things were a tiny repetitive. Keep in mind thats me being super critical though. Over all, the book is great and worth the read! I’m excited to see how it all ends in the next!

Holy smokes, that was incredibly fun! You know when you go to an amusement park and get on a ride that you aren't sure what you've gotten yourself into, and it ends up being one the best you have experienced? That was Lucky Me for me. The amusement park analogy is because most of the book is in an elaborate amusement park. First off, in many ways, I felt like I was in a Shrek-like world filled with fairies, pixies, leprechauns, etc., and they are carrying on in modern existence. It's brilliant! The author explains how this could be quite plausible and sets the stage for this, at times hilarious, mystery and love story that is fun and gripping.
We have Seven, the dashing and wealthy leprechaun whose family runs the casino portion of the amusement park and is "high society" in this magical community. Sophia is a pixie from the wrong side of the tracks, and we learn their history. Their love story is a rocky road they are still on, and I am sure the author has great plans for them in books to come. We get one mystery solved before we are left with a sort of cliffhanger to hold us until we can get the next book. There is much going on in this world we haven't even begun to dig into. It is so unique I can't wait to go back. Get yourself a copy of Lucky Me and meet these delightful characters.

I have been on the hunt for the best leprechaun romance for the month of March and I found it! Apparently there aren’t a lot of Leprechaun romances I searched and couldn’t really find what I was looking for. Then for fun I searched on Tik tok and came across this one. This was exactly what I was looking for!
This book was amazing and I have never added the next book to my kindle so fast in my life. I loved the enemies to lovers between our main characters Sophie who’s a fairy and Seven who’s a leprechaun. Seven broke Sophie’s heart and now they are forced to work together to solve a murder. In order to protect Sophie and her daughter Arden from being discovered by FIRE who think they are criminals. The mystery element kept me on my toes and I did not expect who the killer was at all. Seven’s backstory of why he stood Sophie up at the Yule Ball destroyed me! I loved the world building, I loved the chemistry between our two characters. I loved that there was more plot then spice because I was so invested in all the characters. Even the side characters like the satyr and the relationship between Sophie and her parents. Seriously go read this!!!
Excuse me while I go read book two because I need to find out what happens next after that ending! Thank you Genevieve for creating the book I was looking for!

I LOVED this book! This was a breath of fresh air from all the fantasy and romantasy reads that I usually pick up. The world-building was so well done. Detailed enough to make the reader want to know what's next in this series. Flashbacks from Sophie's POV were great for plot development. Cozy setting but suspenseful plot were a great juxtaposition and gave me great spooky season vibes.
Plot: This well-written book follows Sophie and Seven in a second-chance romance in a world full of pixies, leprechauns, satyrs, and unseelie. It's a contemporary time period set in a Theme park for humans to experience the world of the fae. Gave me lots of Disneyworld vibes with the different city/towns for the fae. But not everything is as perfect as they make it seem to the humans. Sophie and Seven are forced together to solve a gruesome pixie murder and have to face the feelings they put behind themselves 16 years ago. Or did they?
Tropes: Second-chance, forbidden love, accidental pregnancy, one-tent, class dyanmics, crime solving
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sophia has been living in the human world since she left Devashire 16 years ago for reasons of her own. Being an undocumented fee among humans can be dangerous. Now, she needs a place to hide and returning to her family may be her only choice. Safety has a price. The price is working alongside a sexy leprechaun responsible for her humiliation a long time ago, Seven Delaney. Together, they need to solve a murder that threatens the peace with humans. Can they resist their attraction? Will they discover the darkest secrets in Dragonfly Hollow?
The book has the right name because I felt lucky to discover this new author. This is an incredible fantasy with a slow burn and second chance romance. I never read a romance between a pixie and a leprechaun during a murder investigation. It was really creative and well-written. The moment Seven appeared leaning against the fairy gate with his cocky smile, I know he would be trouble for the libido of Sophie. I was right!
