Review: Lucky Strike (Love in El Dorado Book 3) by Janine Amesta


Is finding an unexpected gem a lucky strike?

After getting a late jumpstart in life, Luna Lanza isn’t afraid to get what she wants, including the place of her dreams. When she loses out on the perfect duplex and settles for a standard apartment, she’s disappointed. But Luna remains determined to make it work, even if it sparks a contentious relationship with her new landlord– the same guy she accidentally kissed in an impromptu photo shoot.

Still grieving the sudden death of his brother, reformed bad boy Sam Sunderland feels trapped managing his father’s rundown apartment building. When the spunky beauty, who unexpectedly kissed him, moves in full of ideas, he can’t help being intrigued– that is until she starts changing things behind his back, endangering his position and the relationship with his father.

Sam and Luna wrangle over rules and misunderstandings while fighting against the undeniable attraction between them. It’s a hard lesson to learn that ‘perfect’ can take many different forms. But will the renovations they do together lay a foundation to something more?

 

My Review:

Fun and original.

This book is sweet and tender, funny and emotional.  From the very first (accidental) kiss, I couldn’t wait to see how Luna and Sam would find their way to each other.  While reading this book, I went through all sorts of emotions, I laughed and felt sad and cheered for Luna and Sam.  They deserved a happily ending after all they went through to get there.  This writer really has a way with words.  She pulled me into the story from the very start and when I was finished reading the book, I still needed more.
