A fun read! When Clover goes through a really rough breakup, who’s there for her? Her best friend Austin. He’s always been there for her. Clover has never been one for the spotlight or life of the party but somehow she finds herself as the star of a dating show on Austin’s radio show. Before long, she’s weeding out guys left and right trying to find Mr. Right Now which leads her to find Mr. Always Been There. Austin figures out that things have changed pretty quickly and can only hope that his best friend feels the same. It’s filled with laughs and crazy date and well worth the read!
Funny, relatable, emotional, and swoony! That how I would describe this story! Clover is kind of relatable just a little too insecure… I’m glad it was an HEA! Porn peen this book made me giggle a lot! I teared up a little at the end
This book was so hilarious and sweet at the same time! I loved everything about the book and the characters in it. Even the ones she had on speed dating. Those were some interesting dudes right there. So Clover is hurt and bitter over a relationship. Her ex was a piece of work. He never showed affection or kissed her. I’m not sure how she even stayed with him to be honest. Her and Austin are best friends. They have always been together but nothing sexual..just friends. When he gets wind of what she wants to do, the radio station he works at wants to help her out. This is when things get interesting.. Feelings get hurt, jealously rears its ugly head, true intentions come out and they finally realize they are made for each other. I loved Clover’s friends Cj and Mandy. They added so much to the book as well. They made me laugh so many times. They are the type of friends you want in life!! They overshare and make life fun! I would highly recommend this book if you love to laugh a lot!
Hysterical characters with some fantastic dialogue and a storyline that will have you bent over laughing until you’re weezing! Austin and Clover are best friends who devise a plan to get her dates and some action, with hilarious results and some heartfelt moments. The supporting characters, Mallory, CJ, Owen, even that scummer Jeffery, are well-written and realistic. Thanks for a fun afternoon, in Clover’s radio version of 50 first dates!!!
Hart takes one naive good girl, adds in her sexy, womanizing male best friend, and combines them with a dash of hilarious supporting characters to create a sure fire recipe for a great romantic comedy.
Five unlucky stars! Sexy, hilarious and funny… how RomComs shall be written.
Oh my goodness! My cheeks still hurting because all the laughing this book caused me. Unlucky in Love is HILARIOUS with capital letters! Cary Hart undoubtedly nailed it with this romantic comedy! She brought to life a super sexy and funny friends-to-lover romance, one of my favourite tropes by the way. This book is the kind of book that put a BIG smile on your face. I really spent a great time while reading this beauty. I’ve never laughed so hard. It hit me with the unique banter going between Clover and Austin. I adored them dearly. They were so much fun and incredible.
Cary Hart’s books always leave me wanting more and more of each book. Her books are my own kind of drug. Her writing is flawless and it always wrap me in a cocoon, an especial cocoon that make my heart warm and wild at the same time. Reading any of her books it is like falling in love once again for her writing. She is a very versatile author who has mastered how to write unique and refreshing romances that hold you captive and pull and push the strings of your soul, leaving marks on it in the shape of little butterflies.
Clover and Austin are such a sweet and funny couple which journey started as a innocent friendship and ended in a passionate and hilarious romance / relationship. Clover is just so naive, sweet and has the good girl vibe around her. Breaking up with her boyfriend make he to trade he halo for a pair of horns in a very unusual manner. Her whole story is quite amusing and a little bit bittersweet. I will die of embarrassment if I ever shout out my romantic issues in the radio even if I tough the microphone was off the way Clover did. Holy Guacamole that takes guts and the whole dating show just added to the fun.
Austin screams gorgeous and sexy alpha man from thousands miles away. He is the perfect and melodramatic hero. If my best friends was like Austin, I would fall in love for him. He cares and fights for what he want, and more when he realizes what he really desires: In this case, Clover, his best friend.
I loved that both character grew up during the whole story. They realized many things and what each of them wanted. Clover found out through wild dates what she really wanted and Austin opened his eyes and realizes that the girl of her dreams is nearer than he thought.
Unlucky in Love is without doubt how romcoms should be written. It is a light an enjoyable read that hits all the right spots. The writing is effortless and flows smoothly. The plot is original and hilarious. The characters are relatable. The storyline is catchy and very addictive. It easily sucks you in! This is one of those books that picks you up when you are down. One of those books that bright your day when it is dark. And most importantly one of those that you talk about with your bookish friends until you oblige them to read it!
I chose to read this book based on a recommendation in a FaceBook group. Hart is a new author to me and I really like her writing style. This book is a laugh out loud funny, sassy friends to lovers romance. Great characters, a crazy bird and lots of fun shenanigans throughout. It is an easy read that you will not want to put down. Recommended.
Loved everything about this amazingly written novel. Most of us have been in Clover’s shoes at one time or another, or pretty close to it. Found it easy to relate to the story. A must read from me.
A goody two shoes and a playboy that are best friends. Austin has always seen Clover as the beautiful sexy woman she is….but she has never seen herself that way. A relationship that has been purely platonic for decades, but now that they are living together, will the relationship stay platonic or will the chemistry that’s been building between the two slowly erupt?
Austin watches Clover get ready for dates and his heart plummets every time, but gets relief when the date goes sour. That is, until she goes out with his boss and has a wonderful time. Will Austin admit to Clover how much he loves her before she falls for someone else?
I absolutely love Austin and Clover and hope to get more of them in the rest of this series!!
Absolutely loved this book everyone should read it
cute story, Loved every bit of it.
What a great love story. A great story of two friends who find romance! Great characters and a great storyline. If I had been able to, I would have read the entire book at one setting!
Cary Hart has accomplished something that many authors are unable to do – cross over into the world of humor. Her lighthearted friends to lovers tale is a brilliant mix of humor, sarcasm, emotion and steam, sugar coated with the exact amount of love and friendship. Clover has six years invested in her current relationship only to lose it all in an instant. Feeling down, discouraged and completely inept in the world of relationships, she turns to her handsome and quite lucky in the world of lust, best friend, Austen. He is a radio host known to all as Dr. Feelgood. Surely he can help her with her predicament. What neither is aware of is that there are feelings floating around now between the two that are so much more than friendship. The comedy that ensues when Austen and friends try to help Clover obtain the perfect kiss and so much “MORE”. We now need a Hotline Hookup Helpline for all those itching for more from this group of friends and their romantic needs. If a support group is formed and meeting are held at the local Starbucks, just remember Cary Hart will provide the tip if you provide the gift card!

Clover Kelley thought she found the guy she was going to spend the rest of her life with but after 6 years of dating Jeffery Dalten, he dumps her for his pregnant other girlfriend.
Now Clover is ready to turn her life around and live on the wild side after confessing to her best friend, Austin Montgomery, accidentally while he was on the air that she is ready to get down and dirty.
Now she has men lining up to take her out but can she weed through them all to find Mr. Right or has he been with her the whole time?
This was such a great book filled with so many laughs!
I think we have all been in a relationship that we think is it only to have it end so I could understand the hurt that Clover had, especially for dating 6 years. I loved her bird Kramer and he had me laughing so many times!! I also really liked her friendship with CJ and how much fun the two of them had getting Clover ready for her dates.
Austin was definitely an interesting character as you could tell right away how attracted he was to Clover but he was afraid to ruin their friendship. At the same time he had quite the reputation and he had no problem with him getting around but didn’t want that for Clover.
The dates were all super interesting in their own right and it was funny seeing how each of the different guys approached her and let me tell you, it doesn’t give me much faith in finding Mr. Right!
I loved when Austin finally realized what he was missing out on and the extent that he began to go in order to keep Clover as close to him as possible!
The end was awesome and I am so happy that Clover found her prince after all!
Loved the fun loving feeling this story gives. It made me smile and laugh out loud in public.
The characters were relatable and brilliantly explored. I want to find an Austin all of my own.
The storyline was light, a friends to lovers story that makes you want to believe in love again…. especially if you’re jaded like me.
UnLucky In Love was hilarious! There were multiple laugh out loud moments. I loved how Cary also managed to stick to her signature unexpected moments. This story is feel-good fun that makes you believe your perfect match is out there.
Cary is a master of character building. I loved Clover and Austin, but that’s not all. Every secondary character had the kind of depth to fill their own books. I cannot wait to see where this series of standalones goes. I am going to need Kramer to make an appearance in every story!
Cary Hart has quite the romantic comedy in her hands. She had me cracking up and laughing out loud. People probably thought I was crazy. These characters, including crazy Kramer, will fill your life with joy for however long it takes you to read this book. Cary Hart has created masterpieces in the past I’ve loved, but this takes the pie. She weaved romance and fun into one book that will last longer than the last page.
Clover and Austin have been best friends. They have been there for each other, and as adults they are always there for each other. As the story unfolds, you see the relationship change in many ways. All the characters contribute in an amazing, funny way – I clouding Kramer.
A must read by Cary Hart that needs to be added to your kindle pronto!!
Unlucky in love is the first book in this series by Cary Hart. This book is hilarious and entertaining with amazing characters. I loved Clover and Austin’s story which is a friends to lovers story. I loved this book and look forward to the next book in this series.
Great book for Ms Hart. Unlucky in love is crazy funny. It is not only funny but of course romantic. Clover and Austin are two best friends that you never would have thought to get together but because of some mishaps they do. This book is s must read and the other characters in the book I can’t wait to see what Ms Hart has in store for them! I do hope she also has Clover and Austin in them too.
