Lucky in Love.

 

That’s the name of the dating app I picked, hoping to find Mr. Better Than Average so I can hold off planning my future as a cat lady.

 

I’ve been distracted eyeballing a tall, dark, and handsome Latin hottie who works in the library with me. He is way out of my league, and a woman has needs if you know what I mean.

Finding a man shouldn’t be hard when all I have to do is swipe left or right. It’ll weed out the slimy men who have Bad Date written all over them.

Yeah, I’m learning quickly that I’m rather unlucky in love after all. The men I pick need warning labels, kissing lessons, and a good talking-to about manners.

 

Should I throw in the towel, or will this series of bad dates be exactly what I need to win Mr. Right?

KITTY'S BOOK SPOT!

Author Interview with Author, A.J. Renee

 

 

 

1. What was your favorite book in your youth?

I loved reading the Babysitter’s Club.

 

1. Do you write to music or make music playlists for your works?

It depends on my mood. I created my first playlist for Unlucky in Love.

 

1. Your degrees and education are quite impressive. What started the urge to write?

Thanks. I’ve always had a creative streak but never imagined I’d be a writer. My best friend passed suddenly, and a story popped in my head that wouldn’t shut up until I wrote it. Widower’s Aura was the product of my grief and it set me on my current path.

 

1. What are you hoping your writing/this book will impress upon your readers?

Unlucky in Love is about hope. Izzy left the dating game and decides to give things a try again. The outcome isn’t what she expects and just as she considers giving up she’s surprised. Life is full of surprises. You don’t always find love where you expect it or when you want it. Don’t lose hope.

 

1. Will you share something with our readers that you have never shared with anyone else?

I’m a pretty open person so this is hard! Not a clever fact but no one knows… Izzy’s boss in Unlucky in Love was inspired by my old boss doing that same job.

 

1. Do you have another genre you want to write but have not tried yet?

I love reading romance novels, so I don’t see myself leaving the genre as a writer. Maybe one day an idea will form for a novel in Horror?

 

1. What most influences your books?

Life. People I meet or see spurn the ideas. Sometimes out on a run something will come out of nowhere and I’m forced to stop and jot it down in my phone.

 

1. Where is a fan best to find you online?

I’m on a variety of social media, but I’m the most active on Facebook or my reader group, St. Fleur Belles.

Unlucky In Love by Carmen DeSousa is a well-written book.  I liked the characters and the humor.  That being said, it did drag in spots and ended with my least favorite thing in a book, a cliff-hanger.  Jana's story is about a woman, post marriage breakup.  At times I thought I was reading a self-help book.

 

I voluntarily read a free copy of this book that I received from Instfreebie.  I think.  Forgot to write it down when I downloaded it.

Unlucky in Love - Jill Sanders I struggled with this book. It just was not for me. The storyline didn't keep my attention, and the characters annoyed me.

Alexis/Lexy is an elementary school nurse She is packing to go to Whisper Creek ranch at the pushing of her younger sister - Katie. Lexy got a note from her fiance Tristan breaking off their engagement two weeks before their wedding. Lexy feels like old reliable or second best. Lexy was the reliable one like when her father left Lexy was the one her mother turned to. Lexy’s mom is a hypochondriac and Lexy is her rock. Lexy is trying to change herself and not be boring and try to win Mark back. Gunner is working toward getting his own ranch and working with broken , hard to handle horses. Gunner feels he had found his home. In the past he traveled from Army base to Army base with his mom Gunner was Mr. July on the calendar ranch. Gunner and Lexy develop a strong friendship There is attraction there but Gunner and Lexy are both long term relationship type people not just a summer fling. But as time goes on Lexy and Gunner feelings surpasses friendship . Gunner is determined to show Lexy she is lucky just to be herself. Gunner has to convince Lexy to take a chance on them. I liked this story a lot. It was a sweet read and had a good plot. I laughed out loud at times which is always good while reading. At times I also choked up while reading this story.I did however feel the author was trying to hard in the middle of the story by referring to other couples that had went to the same things several times. Otherwise I did really enjoy this story. I loved the characters and the ins and outs of the story and I recommend.
