Synopsis:
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?
Overall the writing was definitely fun, with the type of banter I enjoy. The romance was steamy when it was supposed to be, and sweet when that was needed. I can see reading more books by this author in the future.

Thanks for hosting today, Lisa! This sounds like a fun, character driven read with the perfect mix of banter and humor! 🙂
It was a funny book for sure!
It sounds like the humor is a good one in this book! But it's a shame that she is so picky. That kind of puts me off this one. I know you need to be picky to some extent but it sounds like she takes it a bit far here…
Yeah, the pickiness made it harder for me to get through it. But it did still have an HEA. Thanks for stopping by!
