Louisiana Lucky

A Novel

By: Julie Pennell

Narrated by: Rebekkah Ross, Megan Tusing, Nancy Wu

From the critically acclaimed author of The Young Wives Club, a "heartwarming story about friendship, heartache, and self-discovery" (Karen White, New York Times best-selling author), comes a charming novel reminiscent of the works of Mary Alice Monroe and Kristy Woodson Harvey about three sisters who win a huge lottery prize and learn what it truly means to be lucky.

Lexi, Callie, and Hanna Breaux grew up in small-town Louisiana and have always struggled to make ends meet. For years, they’ve been playing the lottery, fantasizing about how much better life would be if they had the money.

For Lexi, it means the perfect wedding; for Callie, it means having the courage to go after her career dreams; and for Hanna, it means buying a house that isn’t falling apart and sending her bullied son to private school. When the incredible happens and the Breaux sisters hit it big - $204 million big - all their dreams come true. Or so they think. Because it’s actually not a cliché - money isn’t the answer to everything, and it often comes with problems of its own.

Heartfelt, engaging, and featuring characters you’ll root for from the first moment you meet them, Louisiana Lucky is a satisfying pause resister from a rising star in women’s fiction.

sweet story about sisters

This is the second book I have read from this author and I would love for her to write more. I enjoyed getting to know these characters and feeling connected and invested in each one, individually. Great book for traveling or playing in the background while you do other things like clean the house or work from home.
