Lucky in Love by Kasie West
3.0

“We make our own luck. I believed that, too. We chose our own fate. We controlled our own future. I knew what I wanted. I needed to go get it.”

This book is definitely a super light summer read!
Girl wins the lottery. Changes her life. Changes her relationships with others.

I've always been interested in stories that explore the cons with money. The whole story line that money can't make you happiness and that you can't buy love. Also how money can change a person, is a concept I've always been interested in.

The protagonist was frustrating for sure but something that I enjoyed about her character was her love for planning and hard work. I always love characters who are massive planners and the anxiety that comes with, things not going to according to plan.

The romance I did quite enjoy, I wish of course that there was maybe more buildup and that we got to see them as a couple for longer. This story is pretty predictable, but if you are looking for a light summer read with a cute subtle romance and the lottery sub-plot, then you may enjoy this one!!
