Cover Review:
I love the cover for Lucky. It's an MC romance so you need to have that motorcycle on the cover. I don't know why it's on fire, but it adds some cool effects. Hot, sexy, muscly shifter dude on the cover, always a plus. And the claw marks are a nice touch that let you know that shifters are involved in the story. All in all, it's a hot cover and perfect for this book.
Book Review:
I'm guessing that you know by my 3 star rating for Lucky that I have something good to say and something bad to say about this book. I'll start with the good.
I really love the whole premise of this book. I found Lucky and Cecilia to be interesting and the way and why they met was intriguing. I also really liked the Inked Menace MC. All of the shifters we meet in this book are different and unique and I really wanted to know more about them. And I also liked that it wasn't just shifters in the world, but other supernaturals was well, especially since I was expecting this to only have shifters, so it was a nice surprise.
All this being said, I felt like this story was more just the framework of a complete story. There are many great things about this book, but I felt like the world building and character development needed quite a bit of work. This book seemed all surface and no depth. It felt like there were holes in the story and loose ends not tied up. I think that if this book were about 50 to 100 pages longer, it could go from a good book to a great book.
But don't take my opinion of the book as your reason not to read Lucky. Like a said, there are many great things about this book, I just wanted more. So if the story intrigues you, check it out and see for yourself if it's your cup of tea. I still plan on reading the next book in the series.
Rating:
I gave Lucky a 3 STAR rating. I loved the framework of the story and the premise is interesting, but I wanted more. I wanted to dive deep into the world of this book, but I wasn't able to do that.
