3.31.2021 - Just My Luck

Just My Luck by Adele Parks

Many thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin/Mira Books for the opportunity to read the latest novel by Adele Parks - 4 stars for a great escape novel complete with enough suspense to keep you flipping the pages as fast as you can!

A group of couples, friends since they all met at prenatal classes, have jointly played the lottery faithfully for the last 15 years.  Until one Saturday evening there's an argument at their weekly gathering.  When their numbers come up as winners of 18 million pounds, everything changes.  Lexi, who bought the winning ticket, and her husband Jake claim sole ownership because the other couples pulled out of their agreement.  Jake has no problem spending the money but Lexi, who works for an agency who tries to help those in need, can't buy into the expensive lifestyle Jake now wants for them and their 2 kids. 

You always hear about lottery winners whose lives are ruined after their big win and think that wouldn't be you; you wouldn't change.  But money can be a blessing or a curse - and big money changes everything.  There are lots of twists and turns in this book and you won't see most of them coming.  Read this book before you buy your next lottery ticket!
