Review of Lucky Numbers by GG Carver






Lucky Numbers
Lucy Eaton had a job she loved as a Teaching Assistant at a Special Needs School and a boyfriend who struggled with commitment issues. Life was good, not great, but good, until one day Lady Luck paid Lucy a visit and a life that most people could only dream of opened up to her. With the creases of every day life ironed out, she could sit back and live the dream.

But what if that dream doesn't turn out to be what you thought you wanted? 
Want and need are two very different things. The head wants, but the heart needs, and as generous and fortuitous as life can be, it can also be incredibly cruel. No one gets to live a creaseless life. That is something Lucy will soon discover.




Rating: ☆☆☆☆

If only we could see into the future…

Lucy Eaton had a lot in her life to be thankful for. She loved being a teaching assistant and working with special needs kids but with her twelve-year relationship stuck in a rut she couldn’t say she was truly happy. Would she ever get married and have children of her own? When an unexpected windfall seemed to bring them closer and fulfill every one of their dreams why did she still feel like something was missing?

This was a well-written story from start to finish with characters and situations that felt real and true to life. Lucy was struggling in her relationship with Mark and things didn’t get any easier when new friends entered her life. Joseph and his father were helping her transform her new home’s garden but they were also opening her mind, and heart, to new possibilities. A few of the situations and characters included in the storyline had me scratching my head at times as I wasn’t quite sure how they fit in with the overall plot. Saying that, however, the author kept me interested from start to finish with a story full of friendship, love and a little boy I wanted to take home myself.
