I received this title as an ARC on Net-galley in exchange for a honest review. Thank you publisher for the copy!

The Good
I love the concept of winning the lottery paired with a second chance romance. I've come to like the angst of this trope. I loved the setting and characters of this book. They felt like real people in a real small town with heart and history connecting them.

The Bad
The amount of sexual conversations/banter between Leo and Miri didn't endear me to their relationship at all. The story says they've been broken up for eight years and instead of focusing on that the dialogue is them flirting and leering at each other. I didn't feel a connection between them or why they really loved each other. Leo leaving for 8 years should have had a deeper emotional effect on their relationship than it did. Leo's explanation and excuses were ridiculous and irredeemable in my opinion. I didn't want them to be together even when Miri finally wanted him back.

The Rating
I give this book a 1/5
