Breaking your nose, blackening your eyes, and making you second guess everything you’ve spent your entire life working toward.

Review

Lucy, “Lucky” Harris has always planned her life out. She was to move in with her cousin Dixon in Portland, look for an apartment, and start medical school in the fall. Lucky practically accounted for everything she did. Living with her cousin exposed her to underground fighting. Then there was car racing but she was familiar with it since high school. It was exciting to watch and she didn’t count on meeting Zeppelin Rhoades. He was so hot and had lots of tattoos!! Lucky was cautious and overthinking situations. Being around Zeppelin started to change that. She found herself having fun and being carefree. They soon started spending a lot of time together. Things were going great between them until Zeppelin started to act distant. He wouldn’t tell her why he needed to leave to Seattle at random times. Can Lucky trust him or is Zeppelin setting her up for heartbreak?

Oh Lucky and Zeppelin…sigh. This book was so amazing! I was instantly drawn to Lucky. I fell for Zeppelin. The author really did a great job with the characters. I couldn’t put the book down! I laugh; I cried. Anyone who reads this will not be disappointed. A truly great read that I highly recommend!
