Best of Luck by Kate Clayborn

5.0

I had read the first two books from the Chance of A Lifetime series ahead of this book. It took me a few weeks before reading this last one because I didn't feel like saying goodbye to these characters after reading the first two books one after the other. I also had a feeling I would enjoy the last one the most and didn't want to rush it. And my gut feeling was right. This book is so beautiful.

This book is centered on Greer and Alex. Greer was on her way to graduating when she found out she was missing a credit required to graduate. At the same time, Alex, the brother of Greer's best friend Kit, was in town for Kit's wedding. After witnessing Alex going through something quite personal, Greer had suggested a few things to him that might help and also took a chance to ask him for help on her missing credits.

What I like about this book was that both characters seem so different yet similar. I like how the author described what they were thinking and I really felt the mood the author was trying to evoke. The tone of the books is very similar to the two previous books too which for me was a good thing.

But what I love, absolutely love, was Adam's love for his sister Kit. This book is a stand-alone, but I recommend reading Beginner's Luck. Kit described her brother with so much love and admiration in her book and then when I read this book, I understood... and I felt what she meant. When Alex described that first moment he saw his younger sister, I bawled. Now that I thought about it, I was pretty emotional every time he described the things did for his sister. So that moment when Alex opened up to her, I felt very happy and proud.

So yeah. Totally recommending this book. And the whole series. Kit, Zoe, and Greer had a very beautiful friendship. They are like family, but what really is so great about their friendship is that they are all very encouraging with one another and would never make someone do something they don't feel like doing. They give one another the best pep talk, and yet call out one another on their lies.
