Vibrators and handcuffs and lube, oh my! Life taught me early that luck is not on my side. How else can I explain that the most devastatingly attractive man I’ve ever laid eyes on has mistaken me for a hooker? I mean, yes, my suitcase exploded, spilling a pile of sex toys at his feet. But those are the tools of my trade. Not that trade! I inherited my family’s sex toy business. And believe me, … family’s sex toy business. And believe me, peddling sex toys was not the plan I had for myself growing up. But see what I mean about luck?
I could hardly blame tall, dark and sexy for believing the worst about me. Because while I might be able to explain in detail the best way for a couple to use edible underwear to spice up their sex life, I had no practical experience to speak of.
You see, there’s a little detail I left out when I brought Mr. Growly and Gorgeous back to my room. Now he wants to know how he went to bed with a hooker and woke up with a newly deflowered virgin.
But while I’ve got some explaining to do, he’s offering to teach me everything I ever wanted to know about sex…and love.
Has my luck finally changed for the better?
Author’s Note: What happens in Vegas might stay in Vegas, but I guarantee you won’t want to leave the Sullivan brothers behind once you meet them on the pages of the Lucky in Love series. And it all starts here with Braden and Scarlet’s unforgettably sweet, sexy, over-the-top romance!

Lucky Mix Up! By Lark Avery
Scarlett Jones took over Scandalous Adult Fun for Everyone (SAFE), her father’s business after his stroke a few years ago. She has a head for business and has proved her self since her days at an all-girls catholic school. She went from selling cookies to selling whips and dildos.
Braden Sullivan owns a bar with his younger brothers back in Boston. He is all business on the outside, but he is dark and tattooed on the inside and, oh my, how sinful it is. Along with his brothers, Braden wants to expand his business.
Both Scarlett and Braden are in Las Vegas scouting real-estate for their businesses. Scarlet literally runs into Braden in the lobby of her hotel after spending a long day toting around a suitcase full of battery-operated boyfriends on a scenic tour of Vegas. When her bag explodes in the lobby, Braden can’t help but wonder if she is a high-priced hooker or just crazy. What he finds blows his mind and he can’t wait to learn more about the woman with the suitcase of sex toys.
Holy cow, this book had me fanning my myself and swooning at the same time! I am surprised my tablet didn’t combust just from Braden and his dirty words. Who doesn’t love a man who whispers dirty words in your ear? Scarlet and Braden have great chemistry in and out of the bedroom or car. Yes, I said car! This book had a little of everything from heat, humor, and yes, a little magic. I can’t wait to meet his brothers.
I thoroughly enjoyed this sizzling short story. The characters are fun if not just a little snarky. The chemistry is over the top. I loved Bradon is protective and charming. Scarlet is innocent and her career drives her. Their life together would be interesting.
This book was Great. The ending was Good, also. This book you are going to read and don’t want to stop reading it. I had to finish it before I went to ed. The characters in this book, was Great. I really enjoy it. It was Funny and romantic.
I love this page turning story! Original story great characters. The way it is written just pulls you in page after page and leaves you wanting more
Lucky mix up is a great read, refreshing,delightful,entertaining,steamy and enjoyable story. Great storyline, interesting characters with great chemistry,loved it! Well Done! I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book!
I loved everything about Lark Avery’s Lucky Mix Up, from its publisher’s blurb (“Vibrators and handcuffs and lube, oh my!”) to the family business it’s heroine, Scarlet, inherits (sex toys – hey, somebody’s gotta sell them), to its meet cute (her box of samples breaks open and spills out into the hotel lobby right by our hero Braden), misunderstandings (Braden falsely presumes Scarlet is a high end prostitute and that her samples are the tools of her trade) and how these RomCom ingredients morph into on great (and beautifully written) romance (no, I’m stopping the descriptions here as I don’t want to spoil anything). But for the fact that I’m literally dictating this review to my husband from my hospital bed I could go on and on with praises. The book definitely deserves it. Since I can’t do that I will simply note that the book is most definitely one to read, and it is easy to highly recommend.
Love, love this book. I turn into a pile of goo when the man says “mine”. Love an alpha caveman protector and lover. Is it love at first sight? Oh, yes! Fantastic. Off the charts chemistry between Scarlet and Braden. Smoking hot. It’s a keeper. One that you will read again. Short but oh so satisfying.
Hot, steamy, erotic goodness!!!!! Loved Scarlett and Braden!!!!! Go buy this book NOW!!!!!
It has been quite a while since I enjoyed reading such a delightful, entertaining romance & I look forward to future books from this author. The unique characters are interesting, and realistic with their emotions. I found the story-line and plot fascinating, it definitely kept my attention.
There is: a smart young woman scouting for real-estate in Las Vegas is accidentally mistaken for a hooker (Scarlet Jones), a handsome bar owner is looking to expand his business in Las Vegas (Braden Sullivan), a lot of humor, misadventure, embarrassment, attractions, confusion, anger, realization, determination, misunderstandings, declaration, love, happiness & steamy scenes.
I enjoyed reading this entertaining romance & would recommend it.
Excellent, entertaining & funny contemporary billionaire romance. Scarlett inherited her father’s sex toy business and was in Vegas for work. Suddenly, she meets Braden when her suitcase full of the company trade explodes. He assumes due to the “toys” that she has a different profession. He slowly shows her that he’s there for business as well but the instant chemistry is explosive for both of them. The puns etc. Keep the reader entertained as well as the steamy moments that fit the story. I received a complementary copy of this book and chose to write a review. I enjoyed reading this quirky romance. I look forward to reading future books by this author.
Quirky, steamy, cute and laugh-out-loud funny, I simply adored this book. This is a very fun, tongue-in cheek romance that will raise your temperature, have you laughing yourself silly and falling in love with this couple. Scarlett and Braden were simply amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed them as a couple and as individual characters. Braden was 100% hot! This tattooed, dirty talker was seriously an ovary overload on two legs. Scarlett was 100% unique. Smart, successful and shy she felt like a friend I didn’t know I had been missing. In all I thought this was a fantastic read! (Just for your information: Braden has brothers!!) Let’s hope that swoon worthiness runs in the family! Can not wait for more!!
Lucky Mix Up was a fast paced read that’s guaranteed to get you a little hot! Braden and Scarlet have this amazing chemistry from the get go and it only gets better throughout the book. I absolutely loved their journey together! I received a free copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving my honest review.
Oh my gosh so funny okay we have Scarlet a virgin who sells sex toys hilarious Branden who’s in Vegas to scout for new places to open a new club he accidentally bumps into Scarlett who’s just standing in front of the doorway of their hotel sending her flying her suitcase full of sex toys I’m talking nipple clamps dildos vibrators butt plugs anal beads the whole works comes flying out everywhere. This is kind of funny but embarrassing poor Starlet her face is red as her name Braden helps her pick up things and he’s assuming and this is where the mistaken identity comes in that she’s a an escort or a hooker but he offers to buy her a drink while in the bar a loud mouth Mick comes in making accusations against Scarlet see Mick is a competitor and was one of her father’s rival she was brought up in Catholic school and right out of school had to take over her father’s sex toys business but Mick doesn’t know that she’s a virgin he makes insinuations which only makes Braden think even harder that she’s a hooker but he doesn’t care he thinks she’s sexy smart vibrant and beautiful so he invites himself into her room and boy does he get a shock he’s still under the illusion that she’s done this before which is for him kind of embarrassing cuz he’s never had to pay for sex before but what the heck so during this whole thing he still thinks that she’s a hooker until he enters her and then it’s all out he’s confused a few hours later she’s knocked out cold happy as can be he got dressed took a shower and is fuming he’s angry furious he doesn’t understand how she could be a hooker and a virgin at the same time and he’s furious because he’s jealous thinking that she’ll be with somebody else so he implants himself in her life but his anger when she wakes up confuses her thinking that she was bad so she starts to cry but then he comes up with a plan so they start doing things together both of them falling in love with each other but neither one wanting to scare the other off knowing that their weekend is coming to an end but it turns out it doesn’t a few years later kids are born and she’s out of the sex toy business opens a diner and they live happily ever after
