Publisher's summary

Filled with wit and heart, Get Lucky by Katherine Center explores the deep bonds of sisterhood. Sarah Harper’s whole world revolved around her job at a New York advertising agency before an email snafu got her fired. Now she’s seeking refuge at her sister Mackie’s home in Houston. But Mackie, who’s unable to get pregnant, is also down-and-out these days. So Sarah decides to do something good and becomes a surrogate mother.

Not her best…

Not her best but it gets interesting about 1/2 way through. I do love her in general though!

Finding what matters most in life

Fun story line. Great relationship story between the two sisters, dad and his new girlfriend. Perfect amount of romance, love her balance of all of this and creating a story line that is about real life and its struggles.

A story of growth

It’s a story with lots of learning experiences that are relatable. It was such a pleasure to listen to and get to the end as quickly as I could to know what happens

Smacking Reader and unlikable heroine

Smacking. So. Much. Smacking. Smacking and swallowing and smacking and swallowing. It was a moist read, and I don’t go for moist reads. However, she did a good acting job.

The main character is pretty unlikable and goes for her brother-in-law. Thankfully that doesn’t last long. I guess you can blame all her unlikable mess on her pregnancy hormones, but it’s still not fun to read.

excellent story

this was a lovely departure from all of the "romance" novels....like a palate cleanse between courses.

I couldn't get into this story!

I decided not to finish this book after listening to 2.5 hours. It just wasn't hooking me. There was too much talk about Mackie and the narrator pauses too much.

Cute story

I love Katherine Center books, but this was not my favorite. I could never feel any connection with Everett. Dixie was a little over the top, but likeable. my main problem was with the narrator. Overall, she was very good, but she paused too long between sentences or paragraphs and half thectime when she would say Mackey, I heard Matthew and get confused.

A Real Life Relatable Read!

As usual, Katherine Center tackles real life situation with humor and grace. I love her books because as a 30 something wife and mom, I always find myself relating to her characters and storyline in one way or another.

This book will take you right into the story.

This was just a delightful read. Interesting characters, inventive plot, beautifully paced. The humor included in the writing made me laugh out loud! And the reader was perfect for the job.
The author described everything so well that I could actually see what was going on. Thank you for a good job.
