EskieMama Reads Review: Pushing Her Luck by Audra North





Add to Goodreads



Blurb:

He says she’s a nuisance. She thinks he’s a jerk. Together they might be the perfect match.

Riordan Faraday is about to reach his breaking point. He’s got art classes to teach, a needy mum to care for, and most importantly, a painting to finish. But without time or inspiration, he hasn’t been able to paint a thing and it’s driving him mad. So when a silly American girl shows up on his doorstep with a wild proposal, he shoots her down perhaps a bit more harshly than she deserves…but it’s for the best. He can’t afford any more distractions at the moment, especially not beautiful brown-eyed ones.

Samantha Meyer—Sam, to her friends—is on a mission to find her late grandmother’s necklace. The long-lost piece of jewelry is the only thing she has left of Gram and Sam is determined to see that dream fulfilled before she returns home to New Jersey and takes up the reins of the family business. But she wasn’t counting on a sexy, surly painter to stand in her way.

One frustrated Irishman. One out-of-her-element American. They should have nothing in common, but each might be just what the other is looking for…



Review:                              3 1/2 Stars


Pushing her luck was a fun, feel good afternoon read.  Riordan & Sam thought they both knew what they wanted but it wasn't what they needed.  It was so much fun watching Riordan changing from a cranky, jaded, bitter man due to dealing with his family giving up his lot in life to take care of them, to a totally different man when the quirky lovable Sam enters into his life.  The banter between Riordan & Sam had me laughing at times & shaking my head.  Riordan's neighbor James Browne was there at times to give his subtle advice when they both needed it.  

I recieved a free copy for my honest review!


Happy Reading!!!
