 Stumbling Into Love is the second book in the "Fluke My Life" series and I was eager to get back to this trio of sisters. I really loved the first book so I had some high expectations for this one. It didn't quite meet up with them, unfortunately. Now a big part of the reason for this is the narrator. It was done in dual POV, and the male narrator does not do female voices good at all. The way the heroine's voice was done was awful and screechy and it just hurt my ears listening to it. So I do think my lack of enjoyment for this one was in huge part to the narration.

I felt like Stumbling Into Love was such a solid read though, I do recommend reading this one in ebook. This is a true romantic comedy, I know the cover doesn't really convey that but its super hilarious. We get some fun family bantering surrounding the holiday season, so if you are looking for something Thanksgiving Autumn season, then this is a keeper for that. This series features three sisters, and "Stumbling Into Love" the sister we have is Mackenzie. Our set up of the story starts off with our hero rescuing the heroine in a bar and chemistry is instant for both of them. They both have crazy parents haha but loved how they quickly embrace their chemistry. I did feel like this story felt a bit too much about no committment and lets have lots of sex and what consequences haha

There were portions to the story that I did enjoy overall however, there was also elements to the story that I just wanted to be different. Because it just wasn't something that I could connect with in any way. I did find it a fun story for the most part, it just didn't quite satisfy me in the ways that I was hoping for. But I am definitely curious about this author and definitely want to explore more of her work.
