Is love in the cards?
Since birth, Lexie Berry has had nothing but bad luck. Orphaned at an early age, she had a rough childhood and a boyfriend who was murdered. Now the beautiful, stylish Lexie is determined to change her luck and her life. But first she's got to make good on a promise: to pick up Ty Walker from prison. One look at the gorgeous ex-convict and Lexie knows she's in trouble-and already thinking about taking a walk on the wild side . . .
For five years, Ty was imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. Now he wants revenge on the people who framed him. Yet when the high-stakes poker player sees the leggy Lexie, he suddenly has other desires on his mind. Realizing that Ty is innocent, Lexie tries to stop his plan for vengeance and help him become a better man. But as Ty battles his inner demons, dirty cops and criminals plot to take him out. Can he and Lexie find a way to escape the past?
Oh, Lady Luck, you know how to grab me, hold on tight, and give me an awesome story ride.
This is my favorite of the Colorado Mtn series, and Ty is definitely in my top 3 of all KA Alphas. Both Lexi and Ty have had a rough life these past 5 years, and watching them climb walls to burrow into each other’s hearts is so magical. Yes, he screws up, and I get teary-eyed every time I read the subsequent scenes because of how heartbreaking, yet how wonderfully written they are in the book. KA, of course, has a great cast of side characters that add depth, humor, suspense and mystery, all while helping to take you on this awesome ride in Carnal. I can’t recommend this book or series enough.
Lady Luck is my favorite KA book, it has everything. A beautifully flawed Hero, an independent and sassy heroine, emotions, tears, laughter and, of course, the sexy Alpha-speak we love from KA. I’ve never rooted for a couple more than Ty and Lexi. They’re meant to be together. This really is a story about the healing power of love. It’s simply beautiful.
