Get Lucky

By Suzanne Brockmann

LUCKY...IN LOVE?

An unlikely state of affairs. For Navy SEAL Lucky O'Donlon was the original love-'em-and-leave-'em guy. Used to women swooning at his feet. So how could it be that the frustratingly attractive journalist Sydney Jameson had nothing to offer him but one very cold shoulder?

Well, two could play at this game. But first things first--he and Sydney had a job to do. They had to get their man.

Then there would be time enough for him to get his woman....

So totally laughing at myself right now. I thought this was the first book in the series. So, take it from me folks, you don't have to read these in order!

This series was recommended to me by a friend when I said--help! I just watched Generation Kill and just simply need to be immersed in very hot military men... who don't just rescue some admiral's daughter who is randomly kidnapped, hijacked, etc. (I'm looking at you Seal whatever book!). This was great. Lucky was just awesome. Syd was charming. The rest of the guys were great.

This book had a bunch of things I usually don't go for in it, but for some reason it all worked for me here. They're in love too fast. Magcially he falls for the total opposite of his type (and yet, Syd didn't act like a Special Snowflake). A rescue and he saves the day. Brockman did a great job of making these characters feel real to me--especially Lucky. You understand why he's a man whore, really understand why family is important and thus his military buddies.

It was just yummy. And the chemistry and the hesitation all led to really good things when they finally got naked! Hooray for this series. Now I'll go back and try it from the real beginning!

In this Silhouette series focusing on Navy SEALs, Lucky finally falls in love (he's always been a ladies man), but the reporter he loves has no patience for him, as she's intent on the trail of a serial rapist thought to be a Navy SEAL.HIDEOUS cover aside (Lucky is supposed to be gorgeous and on the cover he looks awful!), this was good and sexy. This one is short, and Brockmann gets much better in later books, but the Brockmann-magic is here as well!

I really like this one. It doesn't have any of the tropes I know I like, but for some reason this one really clicks with me. Lucky's great - his Ken doll act and how it starts to fall apart. And Syd is equally great with her supercilious look of mild interest. The way they both cover up, and eventually lose their covers - they're actually much more honest with each other than the usual in a romance novel, but then neither of them believes what they're hearing - I just really like it. And the situation is very interesting, particularly since I 'know' most of the people involved from the other books in the series.

My favorite category romance of all time. Luke "Lucky" O'Donlan is too handsome for his own good. Loving life with a blond bimbo on each arm, he's completely unprepared to be rebuffed by plain-Jane reporter Sydney. When the two are paired for an investigation into a serial rapist that the police suspect might be a Navy SEAL, Lucky figures he'll simply turn on the charm and have Sydney eating out of his hand. But Sydney sees through his bull and calls him on it, knowing that no one who looks like Navy Ken would ever be romantically interested in someone who looks like her.But neither one expects what happens as they spend more time with each other. It takes a terrible tragedy to show them just what they mean to each other.Horrific cover not-withstanding, this book is wonderful. Lucky is the right combination of arrogant and goofy, cocky but able to be knocked off his tower with good humor. Sydney is a great heroine, smart and savvy, a tiny bit insecure, but not obsessive about her own faults. I could truly believe that these two would make a great couple. I highly recommend this installment of Brockmann's Tall, Dark and Dangerous series, if you can get your hands on it. Used copies start at over $34 at Amazon.
