The Lucky One: A One-Night-Stand Romantic Comedy (Carolina Connections Book 3) Kindle Edition

Luck is no lady… in fact, she can be a downright bitch.

JAKE:
Coming home was supposed to be my shot at redemption. Instead, I’m finding myself chasing after an irresistible blonde whose mercurial behavior could give Jekyll and Hyde a run for their money. I’ve got too much on my plate to get tied up in knots over a girl who wants nothing to do with me. But Bailey Murphy may hold the key to my redemption, and I’m not giving up on either without a fight. “Irish” might play with a poker face, but I’m about to call her bluff … and I hope like hell I’ve got luck on my side.

BAILEY:
Let’s get one thing straight. I am not your typical girl. Sure, I’ve got all the parts, but I’ve been a stubborn, irreverent tomboy since the womb. Which makes it particularly ironic that my heart is so damn girlie. It falls in love at the drop of a hat and leaves me to deal with the aftermath. But no more! If Jake Beckett thinks spending one night together gives him some claim on me, he’s got another thing coming—even if the mere thought of that night leaves me panting like a damn Labrador. I’m not about to open the door and let Jake in, but that choice may be taken from both our hands.

Grab your copy of The Lucky One and meet your next book boyfriend tonight!

Review

"This was a really sweet book! It was fun, feisty, romantic, and hilarious. These characters are ones to follow and have the ability to burrow themselves into your heart..." - Archaeolibrarian Blog

"[The Lucky One] has every rise and dip of emotional tension you need for a great story, with plenty of humor to keep the pace fresh." - Desert Rose Reviews

"This book is laugh out loud funny and shows that sometimes all you have to do is let go of your past, try something (or someone) new and you can have the life you never knew you always wanted... and of course it doesn't hurt to have the luck of the Irish on your side." - GoodReads Review

"I love this series! Not only do I laugh along with the characters but she also managed to surprise me a few times (ex. Right after Bailey meets Jake on her run lol). I can't wait to see what else this series has in store for us. Highly addictive Light HEARTED FUNNY" - GoodReads Review

"I love Sylvie! I feel like I've related to each of her characters and with this being the third book, there are many to choose from: ) I have fallen in love with this series and CANNOT wait for Gavin's book! Sylvie gets me and I love her humor. Hope she makes this a 12 book series like my ladies Jill Shalvis and Robyn Carr!" - GoodReads Review

The Lucky One (Carolina Connections Book 3)
By: Sylvie Stewart
5 out of 5 stars

The story The Lucky One (Carolina Connections Book 3) by Sylvie Stewart is a romantic comedy book. The third book in the Carolina Connections series is awesome. It can be read as a standalone, however, I highly suggest reading the books in order. The characters overlap in each book going forward and it is wonderful to catch up on everyone’s lives. This is the story of Bailey and Jake. Bailey is a tomboy. She has been all her life. She doesn’t dress up and prefers pants to a dress. She is coaxed into dressing up for a special occasion and that is when she meets Jake. Bailey’s emotions take over. Now she can’t get him out of her mind or stop him from contacting her. What will Bailey do next? She has built up walls around herself after trusting the wrong person. Will she let Jake in or build up her walls even higher? I believe that Bailey is someone that doesn’t see her true beauty. She feels that she is plain compared to others and also that if she lets anyone in they will only break her heart again. Bailey has amazing friends that rally around her. Will Bailey take their advice about how to proceed with Jake? Will Bailey listen to her heart?

Jake has returned to his hometown and reconnected with his family. They are very important to him. Jake is a guy that goes with the flow regarding relationships. He is okay with a quick hook up or even dating. He is used to his relationships ending at some point. Bailey is different. She is always on is mind and is always thinking of ways to see her again. He gets very creative. Will Jake be successful in his pursuit of Bailey? Can he make her see how special she is and how much he wants a chance to win her heart?

This story had me rolling my eyes and laughing at the same time at some of the situations that happen. This story has no shortage of drama and I was telling myself “That didn’t just happen, did it?” This author has written a book and series that is very addictive. I am hoping for a next book and can’t wait to find out who will be the main characters. This book is told from the POV of both Bailey and Jake. It is a wonderful way to spend the afternoon. This book does include some adult language and also sexual content. It would be for those 18 years of age or older.

A tomboy and a male too good looking for his own good. A few twists, a bad ex-boyfriend, and an unexpected pregnancy make this story jump.

Jake and Bailey are so cute together. I totally felt Bailey's tomboyish insecurity. I loved slowly breaking down her walls and finally finding true love even if it was an unconventional way to do so.

Love this story. Bailey is guarded but extremely attracted to Jake. Jake can't stay away from her, even though she keeps turning him down. This has twists and complications, and was a joy to read.

I like this book a lot. It would have easily been 4 stars but the back and forth between past and present threw me off a bit. Not to mention I didn’t quite like feel their love soul deep. Like I was missing something. But I did enjoy Jake and Bailey’s story. Especially when Bailey figured out her self worth and learned to trust in herself. The supporting characters were great.

I loved Nate and Laney in the first book. Mark and Fiona in book 2may not be for everyone but it is a very good book. Jake and Bailey have to be my favorites so far in this series. And, everyone from the previous books are here for the party. This series is about love and family, finding your self and having all the support behind you. They are a truly special couple with a great bonus scene at the end.

Have you had your heart broken? Then you are a Bailey! Book 3 in the Carolina Connections Series is Bailey’s story. Sylvie Stewart is a master at creating people you want to care about and be friends with. While every book can be read as a stand alone, it’s special to start at the beginning and follow the history of the friends and family. This book made me laugh and cry as I followed Bailey to see if she can meet ‘the one’ and be vulnerable enough to open her wounded heart.

My third book from Sylvie and while I've been crazy busy once I got to set down and read it.....I read it in no time. It was a easy read filled with strong characters, humor and romance the things I have come to love in her books. Sylvie does a great job and filling you in on all the characters that have been in her previous Carolina Connection series so it is a stand alone read but why miss the other two? I highly recommend this series, its nice to find your self snickering and cheering for the tough guy.

Once again Sylvie Stewart out did herself. I love that she had taken a tomboy, which many girls can relate themselves too, and showed that even they can get the quarterback. Bayley is your typical 'one of the guys' type of tomboy. She hates anything girly. So when handsome Jake Beckett takes an interest in her she can't understand what he sees. The journey these two take together is both a riot and heart warming at the same time. If you loved The Fix and The Spark, then you are truley going to love the Lucky One. The only thing I can say is I hope that Gavin gets his own story.

The is book 3 in the Romcom series.

This is another ripper read from Sylvie Stewart.

Oh my goodness. These book character are truly entertaining. Our heroine, is a rough and tumble tomboy, and she meets her one true love on the day that her brother ties the knot with his fiancé.

In front of the tiny community their adventures at the wedding become general gossip and entertainment fodder.

Through ups and downs they eventually pave their way to a HEA. Loved it bring on book 4!!!

Don't worry I never lie (apart from Santa,the tooth fairy & Easter Bunny.)

I thought this was just ok. There were some really funny bits in there. However, it took me awhile to read it, I thought it was a little slow. I liked most of the characters. Fiona and Mark would be my fav of this series.
I prolly won't be reading anymore of the series though but if I do it will be later
