LUCKY ME: I'm Declan O’Leary, and my family is cursed. For the past one-hundred years, bad things happen if we fall in love. So I live my life one woman at a time. Until I meet Lily Durand and I find myself wishing for a forever that can never be. Yet our fate encounter and one week of bliss just might be enough to turn my luck around.

This book is 2 stories in one and I loved both. The main cast of characters is in both stories, but different focus on each. I loved learning more about each and seeing how their stories unfolded. The character development is great and each story is captivating. Great beach reads!

This was a really enjoyable read that I read super quickly. It had a gripping and engaging storyline and well developed characters that I became really invested in. I will definitely be looking for more from this author.

2 really short steamy romances. Really great to read and well written. I enjoyed them both. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me access to read this book.

Two short fun reads.
Declan and Aiden both think they are cursed, and that something bad will happen to any woman they fall for. Can they break the curse when they meet the women they want a chance with?

Sheer Luck is two novellas, each about two brothers who believe their family is cursed and has been for a long time, ever since their great grandfather turned his back on love and luck from his sweetheart.
In Lucky Me, Declan has chosen a bachelor lifestyle because of his family's curse, until he sees a woman and cannot get her out of his mind. Though they spend time together and it is meant to be a casual encounter, it is clear from the start that they are so much more than that. I adored Declan and Lily. They had amazing chemistry and such ease with their relationship. The ending was total perfection!!!
Aiden makes an appearance in Lucky Me as Declan's brother, who also has been subjected to the family curse, but in Blind Luck we get more of his story. He is a father and a widower and has no time for anything else. He has had a soft spot for Sierra though, his friend and the woman who has helped raise his son, but he doesn't want to complicate things, both because of his son, but moreso because of the curse. Sierra takes it out of his hands one day when she pushes him out of his comfort zone. I loved Aiden, Sierra and Liam. This was a wonderful story of going after what you want and second chances.
This was my first book by this author and I devoured it. I loved these characters and the story line. I cannot wait to read more from the author in the future.

Kelly Moran does it again with two great romantic stories that draw you in from the beginning. My only complaint is that neither are long enough for my liking! I wish they were longer so I could keep reading!

I LOVED THIS! As someone who comes from a very Irish family I felt very connected to the characters, and the superstitious. I also absolutely love Lily and her cleverness. POVs from both brothers was perfect but I do wish I’d gotten duel POVS at the same timeline. It’s a very quick read so I understand why it’s not more detailed or drawn out. Overall 4/5⭐️ And definitely a great March read!

" To Luck, Love and getting the girl". 🥂
Lucky me (book1)
Declan O'Leary has been single for a long time and it's the Irish family curse that keeps him from ever committing to anyone. Over the past hundred years the curse has brought death and grief to the men of this family; Including his father and brother Aidan. Declan meets Lily Durand and makes a one-week arrangement that leaves him falling for her.
Blind Luck ( book 2)
The story of Aidan (Declans brother) who's been raising his son after the loss of his wife to the family curse. Aidan has been in love with Sierra Reif who's been helping Him out with raising his son while he runs his Irish pub.
Such a sweet story!
This was a light, entertaining and a beautiful story. The smut is hot, these povs have so much chemistry and their backstories simple but to the point. kept me engaged and interested till the very happily ever after ending. Perfect. 5⭐️🌶🌶🌶🌶, Smutt

This is my first Netgalley review and I can definitely say I wasn't disappointed! I LOVED that it was two stories. I felt connected to both the MMC and was so excited to read more!
My only issue was that it wasn't longer!! I need some more Irish men! Lol

I really enjoyed these two stories in one book! A tale of two brothers who's family is cursed at love. The characters were easy to invest in. Atmospheric, haunting and superbly plotted.

I really enjoyed these two stories in one book! A tale of two brothers who's family is cursed at love. Both Declan and Aiden guard their hearts from love to keep themselves from enduring the hardships of the curse. But how can they ever truly be happy? These were two easy reads that resolve themselves. The spice level was on point for me, just enough but nothing too crazy. The only part I wasn't particularly fond of would be the terms of endearment used by the male characters for their lovers. They were slightly... cringey, but not enough to affect my overall enjoyment. I would definitely read another title by Kelly Moran!

This book contains two novellas about two sexy Irish brothers. The brothers believe that they have a family curse which causes bad things to happen if they fall in love. Declan lives his life with one woman at a time but does not get serious with anyone. Things change when he meets Lily. Aiden's wife died and he feels that the loss of her is due to his family curse. He starts to wonder if he can try to have a relationship again when he starts to have feelings for his best friend and son's nanny. These are fun stories. I recommend this book.

must read. I like this book and wanted to read more and more. Total fan of Kelly Moran.
Thank you NetGalley for this book and the publisher.

Such a great read! This is the first time I’ve read anything by Kelly Moran, but it definitely will not be the last. The book was beyond sexy and I loved the characters so much. I absolutely devoured it and can’t wait to read more from her. Declan and Aiden were both such great book boyfriends and I loved the world that the author created for them. I highly recommend this one.
