Kristen Collins is cursed. It’s the only explanation for this recent run of catastrophes. She’s lost her brand-new car and a winning lottery ticket, and her ex-boyfriend just drove off with all her possessions. She’s even lost the empty office that’s been her lunchtime sanctuary. Plus, the new hire who’s taken it over is precisely the kind of impending heartache she knows to avoid, from his intense gaze to that irresistible crooked smile.

Developer Aiden Scott plans to stay at the Denver architecture firm just long enough to prime it for takeover. A job like his can’t get personal. Yet from the moment he collides with Kristen, he’s smitten. He wants to save the stunning interior designer from every crazy scenario she winds up in. But who’s going to save him when his business agenda shatters Kristen’s trust?

Turns out, love’s a lot like luck. You don’t know just how good you have it until you stand to lose it all.

I really enjoyed this one. It was a sweet straightforward low angst romance.

Both characters were extremely likeable. I felt bad for poor Kristen at the beginning, she certainly had her fair share of bad luck! Neither were virgins. Aiden wasn't a man-whore or an asshole. There was no OW/OM drama. There was no annoying push/pull or fighting their feelings for each other. The plot flowed nicely and I didn't feel the need to skim. The secondary characters were well written and interesting. Really this is just one of those simple charming romances we are seeing less and less of lately.

I'm looking forward to Amy's book next.
