Publisher's summary

What's your lucky number?

Lyla Wilder is done being the shy chemistry nerd extraordinaire. While every other college student is out having fun, Lyla is studying. With her cat. Well, she's played it "safe" quite enough, thank you. So she creates a "College Bucket List" - with item #7 being a night of uninhibited, mind-blowing sex....

But she needs some help from her man-whore best friend.

Hockey player Beck Davenport thought Lyla's transformation would be subtle. Man, was he wrong. With every item she ticks off, Beck finds himself growing seriously hot for his sweet brainiac best friend. And if he's not careful, he'll end up risking their friendship in order to convince Lyla that he might just be her lucky #7....

Chemistry in the air

If you could sum up Getting Lucky Number Seven in three words, what would they be?

BFFs Turned Couple

What was one of the most memorable moments of Getting Lucky Number Seven?

The most memorable moment for me would be when when Beck gets on stage to sing at a party to his nerdy BFF.

Have you listened to any of Andi Arndt and Cooper North ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I'm a huge Andi Arndt fan and funnily enough - I bought the book based on the description and was happily surprised to hear her as a narrator. She's always amazing and I love how versatile her voice is. This was my first Cooper North book and he also did great! He too had a versatile voice. They both put emotion into the characters and did a great job.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Subtle Chemistry or the Chemistry of Love. Something with Chemistry since they were both all about chemistry both figuratively and literally.

Any additional comments?

Amazing!!! Reminds me of Sincerely Carter in a way. Bffs turned lovers. Well written with tons of detail and feelings (more R rated with the steamy scenes - not too much detail there but its cute). Beck was the college hockey star. And Lila was the nerdy chemist major. Lila was tired of being called boring, plan and one guy called her ugly in earshot of herself. while her BFF Beck thought she was amazing as is and a great friend. He agreed to help his frumpy friend with the great personality (yet nerdy). He didnt see her in a sexual way and thought it would be easy - but he was wrong. Chemistry from their friendship began to heat up with her new looks. Beck started to see her in a new light and got jealous of other guys attempts to be with her. The story takes an unexpected turn when he agrees to help her with one of her college bucket list items. This book was amazing and well worth the read. Enjoy!

An Unexpected Delight

This book was an unexpected delight to read. It was funny and the characters were very believable. This is not a book I would normally stick with and want to listen to day and night to finish. However, I did with this one. Great read Cindi Madsen!
