‘Getting lucky’ is a phrase I could barely say without blushing… Yep! I’m that girl. The one my friends call goody two shoes…But…good girls don’t finish first. THEY—GET—DUMPED. Even after investing—no, wasting—six years of their life on the guy who was supposed to be the one. So…I traded in my halo for a pair of horns!Hello, world…Clover Kelly is single and ready to mingle!Then it … horns!
Hello, world…Clover Kelly is single and ready to mingle!
Then it happened, I suddenly found myself starring in the dating game to beat all dating games.
While pouring out my heart to my best friend, my new quest for lust is accidentally broadcast live…ON THE RADIO! Yay, me!
Did I mention my best friend is an uber famous radio personality…and a guy? A really hot guy? Yeah, his face isn’t plastered all over town simply for his name…
When the requests to win my heart came pouring in and became date after horribly bad date – I couldn’t help but wonder…
Could he? Could we? I mean I’m already breaking all the rules.
What’s a girl gotta do to get lucky?

In this first book we meet Clover and Austin, best friends since middle school. Clover, after a break up discovers herself again and realizes what has been front and center her whole life. Austin, a radio dj is clueless as well until it is almost too late.
This book was seriously hilarious. I am so glad I decided not to read at work this time. I haven’t laughed this hard in quite a while. CJ makes this book and really we all have a friend like her.

Such a fun friends to lovers romantic comedy to get lost in for a day!
From the banter between Clover and her friends that made me snort with laughter and the fan I had to bring to cool down when things got hot and heavy…I enjoyed everything about Clover’s journey to find her love and luck (and all the frogs along the way).
Cary Hart definitely brings the joy and swoon with this one. Adding just a taste of what could be future stories to come(hint hint). I can’t help but want to read more of the shenanigans these characters get into.

This was a slow burn for me. Clover is finding herself and her O all at once, and though she’s enjoying herself she’s on an adventure for quite a while. She’s still looking for the right cards to play her hand. The emotion wasn’t pulled from the pages the same way I thought would happen, but I could connect with both Clover and Austin. Their chemistry hits them on the head without them knowing it.
I recommend this HEA.

This is the 1st book in a new series from this talented author, and what a fantastic introduction this story is! Clover and Austin have been best friends since childhood, and when she is looking for someplace to stay she goes to see playboy Austin at work, where he is a talk show host. When Clover is accidentally put on air, things start to heat up. This is a beautifully written romantic comedy, which is emotional, fun, entertaining and a hilarious read. I was totally captivated throughout this addictive page turner, and I cannot wait to read more in this awesome series. I highly recommend this gifted authors’ work for all.
Clover has a life plan this is carefully arranged in a binder . Her reality is that she has been living for that planned future and settling in the here and now. When she walks home to her boyfriend of six years; expecting a proposal she is more than shocked to find out he is leaving her for a pregnant bimbo.
She turns to her best friend and constant , Austin , who lets her move in and regroup. Austin aka Dr Feelgood from his satellite show has been her best friend for fifteen years. When Clover accidentally declares to the radio audience that she is looking to get lucky it opens a Pandora’s box of dates, tweets and hilarity.
The things that you can always count on when reading a story by Ms. Hart are many laugh out loud moments, strong friendships, an amazing build up to a forever love and a hilarious pet. I loved this story the main and side characters are fantastic. Great dual POV and epilogue.
I received a copy of this book and I am volunteering to leave a review.
I love it when friendships turn into something more. The slow realization that everything you’ve ever wanted is right in front of you and then the journey begins. I can’t wait to see what’s next.
I loved this book, Clover and Cj are great and well the beginning was a little rough for Clover but this story had me laughing and it is a page-turner. I didn’t want to start reading this book but all good things come to an end. The author did a great job and I just loved reading this well-written book.
Loving this entertaining romantic comedy! Clover has had her life planned out by following a set of rules she lives by. When her bubble bursts due to a breakup rather than the engagement she planned on, she runs to her best friend Austin. Austin is better known as Dr. Feelgood on the radio, and lives his life hyping that up. But when Clover runs to Austin and somehow finagles herself into being the topic of discussion on his radio show, Austin starts to realize that his closed off feelings for her might not be able to be hidden much longer. As Clover goes on her dates, she realizes that maybe her feelings for Austin need to be closed off for good, thinking it would never happen. This was probably one of the funniest romantic comedies I’ve read to date! I couldn’t stop laughing over the antics Austin was doing in order to get Clover to stop the dates or cancel, and also loved how quirky Clover was! This was my first read from this author but won’t be my last for sure!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
I just loved this book! It was such a fun read! I couldn’t get enough of Clover! She is sexy and full of sass!
Clover, in the beginning, kind of reminded me of myself. Apparently it wasn’t working for her so she threw herself into the speed dating world with the help of her best friend, Austin. Her dates were all sorts of interesting, but I think it helped her find exactly who and what she wanted. I liked that she got out of her comfort zone and put herself out there…in front of everyone to see. I gave Clover an A for Effort and a H for hilarious. CJ and Mal were the girls that you’d want in your corner. I hope we get their stories next!
I have to say I thought this book was not only really well written but one I just couldn’t put down. The author brought us with her into a world that you hear about all the time and maybe some have experienced but wow I really loved the whole hes just a friend and we all knew where it was going but the way it got there was great…I laughed so hard in some places and others I was like really that’s what your going to do…it was like I wanted to tell them when I was ready the story how this should go.. Love it…Another great book, even one you will want to read another time soon….
Unlucky in Love was such a great and fun read. It grasped me from the first page, and I completely related to Clover, especially her googling habit. I love friends-to-lovers romances, it’s one of my favorite tropes, and this one satisfied my book lovin’ soul. The slow burn, banter, and wit made for a must read!
The words flowed, coming to life on the pages in a unique yet relatable story. This book has the perfect balance of laughs, heart, and friendships.
Unlucky in Love reminded me of the earlier romances I used to read when I was younger, wrapping me up in feel-good moments as I settled in to read it. What’s a girl gotta do to get lucky? Read Clover’s story to find out!
PS: I need a hot best friend like Austin Montgomery in my life. 😉
Omg! Unlucky in love is ahhh-maaazzz-ingggg!!! I haven’t laughed so much reading a book in a long time. It is hilarious, sexy, fun, romantic, and did I say HILARIOUS! This friends to lovers rom-com is not my go to troupe, but let me tell you is was the absolute break I need for this summer.
Clover Kelly is not your typical twenty something… she thinks she has it all figured out, the guy, the job, the house, the bird, the PLAN….THE BINDER…until her perfect world was turned upside down by an Angel.
Austin, your typical twenty something living it up in the city. He has it all, the looks, the perfect job, the apartment, the best friend, all the women, every man’s dream. Until his perfect apartment is invaded by his hot mess of a best friend.
When Clover declares she is going to turn in to an “Austin” and try to get lucky with all the men in the city, Austin is not so sure his bachelor status is the life for him anymore. All the hilarious angst you can stand ensues while Clover speed dates her way into love.
From the perfect life to chaos, both Clover and Austin go on a rollercoaster of emotions to find their happily ever after.
Aaaah, finally, a book that hits ALL THE RIGHT NOTES!!
I’ve been feeling kind of off this week as far as reading is concerned. I had my first ever DNF and it made me so, so sad. But, Unlucky In Love by Cary Hart changed all that. It’s flirty and funny. Sizzling with sexy humor and unvoiced love. It’s also a very, very slow burner in relation to Clover and Austin getting together.
Watching Clover trying to find the right man when he was in front of her the whole time was slightly frustrating, I wanted to slap the pair of them. But, it was a really enjoyable story and all those dates brought them to the right place in the end. If you’re in desperate need of a laugh and feel good story then this is the one for you. One-Click today and get your giggle on.
A friends to lovers story with tons of laughs and slightly confused bird. Clover has just come out of a long term relationship when she accidentally announces to the world that she wants to get lucky. After 50 + dates, Clover is no closer to finding the love she has been looking for. On her final date, she thinks she finally found what she was looking for. That is until Austin, her best friend, decides to throw himself in the mix. Will Clover ever get lucky? Oh and let’s not forget about Kramer. Is he a dog? Is he an alarm system? Whatever he is, he is one funny bird.
Unlucky in love is sweet and super funny. I laughed so hard at one point I actually snorted. Lol
I adored the characters and their playful banter. If you like friends to lovers romances and you’re in need of a good laugh then you might want to give this book a try.
Unlucky in Love was such a fun and sexy read. I can definitely relate to Clover, with all her googling! The words literally flowed together so perfectly. You never think you’re going to get dumped. You never think you will have to depend on your best friend. Sometimes life throws curves balls at you and you have no choice. I can’t tell you the number of times I laughed out loud.
Unlucky in Love by Cary Hart
5 Stars
Omg!! What a wonderful book! Love all of the laughter and enjoyment! The banter between the characters is great!
“It matches the softness of her lips I’m dying to taste.”
I recommend!
So, so funny!! Clover and Austin have been best friends for years but he’s a playboy and she’s got her life, including the perfect wedding to her not-so-perfect boyfriend, planned to the last detail. When Clover’s life implodes she turns to Austin and unwittingly unloads her emotional baggage on his sex talk radio show. And #Unluckyinlove is born. Through wildly hilarious dates Clover learns what she is really looking for. And Austin realizes his perfect girl is closer than he thinks.
Cary Hart is a funny, funny lady. The 50 speed dates had me laughing out loud and Clover’s friends actually made me cry from laughing so hard. A fun, sexy friends-to-lovers story!!
Absolutely loved this book! The characters, the chemistry, the humor and that dang bird HAHA! A definite recommendation for all!
