Too Lucky for Love

‘If this had been the 19th century, you would have had a fluffy white cat, bright dreams, and a big bow in your hair.’

‘And you? What would you have had?’

‘Syphilis.’

Penny is used to the universe treating her with good luck. It has always been this way, which is why she travels all over the world, has never had a job, and greets everyone around her with a big, beautiful smile.

Adam is the exact opposite. A rational, cautious engineer and “realist” who always tries to play it safe. They say op posites attract, so when they end up in the seat next to one another on a flight to Italy, Penny and Adam immediately hit it off.

But what starts as a perfect vacation fling, quickly turns sour when their elemental differences lead to a downright feud, and Adam causing a strike of bad luck on them both following a disastrous visit to a wishing well.

Can they find a way to overlook their differences to rein force some balance in the universe? And will they be able to control their mutual attraction for the remainder of their stay in paradise?

In the vein of People We Meet on Vacation, Alice Vånner’s debut is an impressive and sharply funny read, and she herself is spearheading a new generation of writers within Swedish contemporary romance.
