Resumen del Editor

Treat yourself to an "outrageously sexy" (Entertainment Weekly), "fabulously fun" (Jill Shalvis) second-chance romance from the New York Times bestselling queen of hockey romance!

Lilah isn't sure what hurt worse: the day Ethan left her to focus on his hockey career or the day he came back eight years later. He might think they can pick up just where they left off, but she's no longer that same girl and never wants to be again.

Ethan wants his glory days back. And that includes having Lilah by his side. With her, he was magic. They were magic. All he has to do is make her see that.

Just when Lilah might finally be ready to let Ethan in, though, she finds out their reunion might have nothing to do with love and everything to do with improving his game. But Ethan's already lost her once, and even if it costs him his career, he'll do anything to keep from losing her again.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Fans of either hockey romance or second-chance tales will undoubtedly fall for this tale of two former lovers who find their chemistry downright combustive when placed in close proximity to each other....Hunting knows how to craft a delicious take on two characters who love a good puck. If you didn't think pick-up trucks were sexy, you will now...Hunting writes with a bittersweet blend of aching vulnerability and undeniable charm...Her approach to storytelling is at turns outrageously sexy, downright charming, and emotionally resonant, leaving readers with a romance that scores a goal."— Entertainment Weekly

"Novelist Helena Hunting knows how to keep us turning pages. Her signature warmth and risqué wit is on full display in The Good Luck Charm, a sexy, sweet take on first loves and second chances. One of our very favorite things about this charming romp is the dueling perspectives of the book's delightfully imperfect central characters, Lilah and Ethan. The pair's drive to succeed is matched only by their unbridled passion for each other."—iBooks, "Best of August" Pick

"Fabulously fun! Lilah and Ethan's second-chance romance charmed me from the first page to the swoon-worthy end."—Jill Shalvis, New York Times bestselling author

Not impressed

I love Helena Hunting’s Pucked Series but this one just fell short for me. The story was just ok, not the funny quirky style I prefer from Helena.

Second Chance Done Right!

I'm a hardcore Helena Hunting fan and spent the best chunk of my August binge-reading her Shacked Up series (SO GOOD y'all), so I figured it was long overdue for me to read Good Luck Charm. I don't know what took me so long to read it - especially since I preordered it AND her hockey themed sports romances (the Pucked series) is what made me fall in love with Helena Hunting's writing, but I'm glad I finally picked it up (and proceeded to devour it). From the way we meet Lilah (who is really going through some ish which is really relatable, but she's also a bit older than the heroines in the Pucked series so that also makes it easier for me to relate to her), to the real life situations that she and Ethan were facing, to the lush bittersweetness that draws me to second chance romance time and time again (and that HH delivers so masterfully), and the HEAT and HEART that embody all of her books - Good Luck Charm had me enthralled from the first page to the last. I'm not usually real big on angst in my romance but the true to life and low level of the angst here was entirely palatable and appropriate. And now my pump is totally primed for A Lie For A Lie next month so that I can get more hockey hotness! 5 out of 5 wine glasses.

Just an okay book

Predictable storyline and the characters aren’t well developed. Don’t fully feel the chemistry between the characters on a deeper level

Steamy story

Easy to love! Well written and narration was on point! A little conflict, story twists, and romance.

Sweat and Sexy listen

Helena Hunting is an auto-download for me. This was a sweet and simple book. Not as funny as the Pucked Series or as Deep as the Clipped Wings Series (those two are my favs.) But overall a good simple story, a very easy listen.

Great

Really loved this book even though I had a hard time getting over the male narrators voice but he doesn’t read much of the chapters so I stuck with it! Worth the credit!

almost didn't finish cus characters irritated me

I almost didn't finish cus characters irritated me so much. they redeem themselves a little by end of book but the selfishness and immaturity of the leading man coupled with the lack of backbone from the leading lady had me grinding my teeth. and if either character 'ran their finger down the bridge' of the others nose one more time, I might have completely lost it. total gag reflex over the OVERUSE of this endearment/encouragement. I love Helena Huntinb and she's an auto buy for me, but this book was not in the same caliber as her others.

Adorable couple.

Every character Helena Hunting writes is memorable to me. Good Luck Charm is sweet, sexy, easy to read and even easier to fall in love with the characters and the story. I devoured this book, I only stop listening/ reading to feed my family dinner. A beautiful love story of second chance.

Wow!

Another amazing story from Helena Hunting. The characters are ones that you want to be friends with. The story draws you in from the jump. It was fabulous. Hot. Funny. And filled with emotion.

Love this book!

I love a good love story especially when it’s got to do with sports. The narrators were great too.
