How To Get Lucky

4.75* I loved this book. I've read many of Erin McCarthy's book and have enjoyed all of them. She has a way of writing dialog between friends and lovers that just makes me laugh and wish they were my friends. Allison was so sassy and blunt, maybe to much for some but Marco found her refreshing and someone he wanted to spend time with. She didn't bow down to his stardom but treated him like a regular person unlike most everyone he meets. The book is full of hot as hell sexiness, chemistry that's off the charts and a relationship that started so fast that they couldn't let themselves believe it was real. This is the third book in the series but can totally be read as a stand alone book. I have not read the other books but I am so going to now.

I got this for an honest review. I loved it. I'm not surprised. I love all of Erin's books. Marco has it all as a rock star. But is lonely. He started to get his life together. Allison is sick of her life and needs a change. Tired of living check to check. Life is about to change for Allison. She wins the lottery but then loses her ticket. Marco asked her to take a chance on him. Can she do it?

Erin McCarthy's done it again! How to Get Lucky is amazing! The characters are absolutely awesome. I was hooked from page one. I have read almost every book by Erin and each one is filled with love, laughter, hotness and so much more! Definitely a must read!

Who doesn’t love Erin McCarthy??? I’ve read all 3 books in the NYC series and I’m so glad How to Get Lucky brings back some favorite characters from the previous NYC books (The Pregnancy Test and You Don’t Know Jack). Allison wins the New York State Lottery at the same time she meets Marco Lucky. Will her luck hold and true love come her way? Or is her psychic friend Beckwith right and she’s not destined for love?

I have been waiting years….and I mean years….for Erin McCarthy to pick this series back up. The only reason I haven’t completely rebelled against this amazing author is due to the fact that she has published dozens of awesome books for my reading pleasure in the meantime. In How To Get Lucky the third installment of Erin McCarthy’s Sexy in NYC, the reader is re-introduced to Allison Parker. Because it has been a while since You Don’t Know Jack and, my absolute favorite, The Pregnancy Test - you may have forgotten this hysterical lady. No worries, you’ll remember her quickly enough. Allison is an “in your face,” "brutally honest," "no filter whatsoever" young lady looking for more. She isn’t exactly sure what she wants, she just knows there has to be something bigger and better in store for her. On a whim, and with the help of a quirky psychic, she does the improbable and wins the lottery, only to quickly lose her ticket and then be forced to pick up her life, which has fallen to shambles. In the process of experiencing her highest highs and her lowest lows, over the course of approximately 24 hours, she meets Marco Lucky. Marco is a reformed rock star or at least he is trying to be. He is sober, celibate, and looking for some peace and quiet. Although Allison is not his type, and she seems to want nothing to do with him, Marco cannot help but be drawn to her unwavering honesty - a trait that he is hard-pressed to find in his circle of friends and business associates. An unlikely friendship emerges, and the reader learns as this story unfolds whether these two individuals from different cities, on different sides of the country, in different business fields, and from two completely different backgrounds can build a relationship. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was fun, made me laugh a number of times, and had me guessing as to “what will happen next” more than once. In addition, the reader gets a sneak peek into the lives of the other characters whose relationships were explored earlier in the series. Mandy and Damien are awaiting the birth of their baby, and Jamie and Jonathon are planning their wedding. We also learn a little, just a snippet about how Caroline is doing now that she is married. It is just a teaser….maybe she will star in book four? Please?! I received this book for free in exchange for a honest review.

How to Get Lucky, the long awaited 3rd installment of Erin McCarthy's 'Sexy in NYC' series truly does not disappoint! Allison wins the lottery and meets a sexy hot rock star all in one night. Great hook for me because- Seriously. What girl wouldn't love to see that particular dream come to life?! But then there's a devastating blow 'when Allison realizes her winning ticket is gone...' which hello, that sounds like the story of my life. I couldn't help but relate to Allison's misery, because surely if by a miraculous fluke I won the lottery I guarantee I'd most likely flub it up just like Allison. I found Allison a completely relatable character, I loved her personality though I must admit she took it all in stride way better than I ever would have. BUT then again she has some help, after reluctantly meeting (and I quote here) "The hair, the tats, the hardware, the huge dick... I'm not really sure where to look first." rock star Marco Lucky. Daaaaaaaaaaamn. Doesn't that just say it all?!! Again, I'd never 'Get Lucky' to the extent Allison did but alas that's the beauty of fiction & book boyfriends! I was all about Marco Lucky and he was the perfect fit for Allison! I devoured this book in a matter of hours. Erin delivers a smokin' sexy read just in time to be the perfect beach read this summer! Prepare to take that cool dip though, because it's gonna get HOT!!! ;)

Wonderful book! We have waited a long time to get the next book in the NYC series! The wait was worth it! A fun ride about love, laughter, life's ups and downs and how to finally make it all work! Allison is a touch gal who struggles in life! Enter Marcus who is a little jaded.......makes for a great fun story! Thank you for keeping it real Erin!

In this 3rd book of the Sexy in NYC Series, Allison is in a dead end job, has lost both of her roommates, and is suffering serious financial setbacks. In the course of one evening, she not only wins the lottery, but also meets a devastatingly attractive rock star who is interested in her! When she loses the lottery ticket, she has to figure out how to get herself out of her dire situation. She takes Marco up on his offer to spend a few days with him in L,A., Even though Marco has been sober and celibate for a year, Allison sees this as a time out from real life and doesn't think her hookup with a rock star can go further. Marco doesn't necessarily agree with her assessment of where they stand. I found this book to be entertaining and fun. The chemistry between Allison and Marco was wonderful, and I really enjoyed their banter. I loved the way Allison treated Marco like a normal guy. The two of them were great together, and I enjoyed every minute spent reading their journey to a real relationship. I closed the book with a sigh and a smile on my face.

This is the third book in the Sexy in NYC series. Allison's friends have found their lifetime loves and moved out leaving her to pay rent on an apartment she can't afford using the money from a dead end job at a comestic company. She has decided that she doesn't trust guys and is going to take a break from dating. Marco Lucky has made changes in his personal life such as no drinking, drugs or one night stands. One night he sees Allison in a local bar and decides her unwillingness to throw herself at him and keeping him check is extremely intriguing and sexy. The more Allison tries to keep their relationship in the friend zone the more Marco wants to move to the next level. This is fun and flirty romance. I'm looking forward to more in this series.

A long wait was well worth it for this third book in the series by Erin McCarthy. Allison finds herself down on her luck in NY City after her two roommates fall in love and move out. Out with her friends for a quite night of drinks she finds her night interrupted with fan girls after rocker Marco Lucky. After Marco over hears Allison tell her friends she wished he would take his group and go Marco approaches her and then buys her tables drinks. On the advise of a cross dressing pychic Allison buys a lottery ticket and her life changes from there. Marco Lucky is a rock star on the top of his career, but past mistakes has him abstaining from alcohol and sex. Until he met Allison he wasn't tempted, now he can't get her sassy mouth out of his head and had to see her again. Can the two work out their insecurities and find love?
