    About this ebook

    SWEET ROMANCE: Though Lady Luck had more spunk than skills, she was determined not only to restore the bungalow she found, but also replace the sign above the porch, that read, “Born To Lose." She promised herself, that one day, when it looked the part, she would change its name to “Lady Luck.” It was what her daddy always called her. It fit too. Poor as her family was, it never stopped them from making the best out of her life. Ever since third grade—when rich kids on the hill made fun of her––she was always making ugly things lovely. And now, as an adult, and single again, Lady was determined to make her life better, with or without a man. What she didn’t expect was a drop-dead officer of the law to take an interest in her property restoration
