Book Review: ‘Count Your Lucky Stars: A Novel’ By Alexandria Bellefleur

Maggie Cooper is single and likes it that way, even though her friends keep trying to fix her up. Then Olivia Grant, who was her best friend 11 years ago and they had a one week passionate affair, then Olivia got married to Brad, which lasted 10 years. Olivia is now divorced and working as a wedding planner. Olivia just got a plum job from her boss planning a wedding in three weeks (the rich couple had it all planned out until there was a problem at the venue). The couple are friends of Maggie and she and Olivia reconnect. Then Olivia’s apartment floods and she ends up moving in with Maggie. The things get steamy again (and be ready for some love scenes) between the two of them. Neither knows how to deal with it as each don’t do relationships right now. But their feelings grow strong and they must confront their past and figure out where their future might be. A fun rom-com, with well-written characters and a story that has you rooting for the two main leads to get together.
