What will happen when the past slowly creeps its way into the present?
With two worlds filled with secrets and lies, it’s only a matter of time before they crash and truths are revealed.

Review:
When I
started this book I had NO idea what to expect, see I am one of those judge a
book by its cover type people, and I never bothered to read the synopsis…….all
I can say is WOW!!
Blake is a
smart mouthed almost bitchy girl that has a very broken past that keep her from
having more than 2 friends. After reading all that she has been through I
completely understand her attitude toward other people.
Blake’s
closest friend and roommate is Dean, I love this
friendship! These two are honest and caring and honestly share an incredible
bond. Dean is the kind of guy you want in your life, he genuinely cares
without any expectation of things going further, he really just wants the best
for Blake.
Not
only are Blake and Dean roommates they also work in a bar called Frankie’s, it
is here where she first meets HIM!!!
“He's tall, lean, and the most attractive man I've ever seen” (Blake)
“He's tall, lean, and the most attractive man I've ever seen” (Blake)
Derrick
is A successful CEO of a nearby Casino is in town for a seminar, he walks into the bar where Blake works and immediately has an effect
on Blake like no one else ever has. The two
mix like oil and water at their first meeting, and Blake was super happy to see
him go. But was this just a one time chance meeting??!!??
Dean’s
friend Landon comes to town and spends the day with Dean and Blake, from the beginning
there is spark between the two but Blake’s unwillingness to let her guard down does
not deter Landon.
Blake
has put up walls around herself in order to keep her past at bay. Her past has
a hold on her that she can't seem to let go of, Dean has been her rock, can she
learn to trust Derrick and/or Landon?
Blake
does decide to take a chance unfortunately there are a few twists and turns
along the way to finally get to happiness.
I want
to laugh until I cry, be carefree without hesitation, love like there is no
tomorrow, survive a heartbreak and know that I will have the strength to love
again.(Blake)
Throughout this book I became
emotionally invested, I wanted them to all come out happy in the end
unfortunately only one guy can have Blake and you’ll have to read the book to
see what she decides. I cannot wait to read the next book to see how the rest
of the story unfolds!

About Tiffany
I am 27 years
old, with a wonderful family. My husband is in the Army, and we have two
wonderful children. Ashley and I have been best of friends since we were 13. I
recently graduated from South University with my Associate's Degree as a
Paralegal. I enjoy listening to music, playing with my kids, and going to the
beach, and anything that has to do with the outdoors pretty much.
I’ve always liked to write, but never really had an interest in reading until the summer of 2012. I am so excited to be taking my writing journey with Ashley, and we cannot wait for everyone to get their hands on Luck of Love, which is the first installment in the Luck Series. I have many authors that I consider my favorite so I’ll just name a few: E.L. James, SC Stephens, Molly McAdams, Rebecca Donovan, K.A Linde, Marie Coulson, and S.H. Kolee.
