I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.When I started reading "The Luckiest" I was armed with yes, my trusted friend kleenex!Mac is mourning the loss of Travis and Katie (husband and daughter), they were killed in an accident in which she was the soul survivor.  Travis was her high school sweetheart, and they got married right after school, and no sooner did Katie arrive♥Fast forward 3 years....Mac has it rough and is no stranger to death, having lost her mum at a young age, then the loves of her life, and then her father.  My heart aches for her, and I'm wondering if emotionally I'm going to make it through this read, things take a turn, a hot turn ...Mac is invoved in a fender bender, and the guy she drives into is a real sweetheart, and he's kind and caring towards her, he tries to calm her by distracting her with easy and simple conversation.As it turns out our friendly stranger, Christian has a brother that's part of a band and he's decided to tag along, as it happens they're in need of a cook and our girl applies and guess who's getting her rock on?Monica, the  beautiful auburn haired bestie of Mac is a friend in a million, she's been through the darkest time in her friend's life, and I think she's thrilled at the naughty twinkle our rockers bring to her eyes.  I feel for Mac as she gets cold feet and reality sinks in, it's all new and scary, but I thank mother universe for a friend like Monica who is the voice of reason and encouragement♥Our roadtrip has begun and there's something brewing between Christian and Mac, but I think it's going to be a great friendship more than anything else, which is what both of them need.Dean is actually quite a sweetheart♥ He's taken some time out and spends it with Mac and they get to know each other a little better, I see a little life coming to Mac's eyes.  Sadly something I noticed is that there are a few of the crew that are hurting and "running", and I hope their road tripping will heal their hurts or at least that they'll be able to deal with them :(Dean has the cutest nickname for Mac, he calls her "Macaroon"♥ He takes her for a bike ride with aweome results!  I must give it to Mac she makes drinking black coffee very sexy.  "There's something sexy about him drinking a cup of black coffee...To see him take the bitterness head on makes him seem so strong and raw." Then helping Christian with mechanics ... sounds like the most erotic activity!My heart crumbles for Mac and the turmoil she's going through about "moving" on with her life.  Dean and "Macaroon" have a chat while night swinging, and in their conversation there's both revelation and a lesson that has me reaching for my kleenex and howling like its full moon!  Dean has me giddy, and their taste in music is legendary!The chemistry between Dean and "Macaroon" is getting more intense by the minute and Monica's little care package helped as well, I canned myself!  Dean is so gentle, kind, and patient with Mac, and he just melts my heart ♥Patti, Dean's mum is as honest as they get and she's a real hoot!  Her living conditions don't define her but her heart does and she is where she is because of love gone wrong and and act of self defense. Again, I'm howling and reaching for my kleenex!  Dean is so protective and defensive of his "Macaroon" and I honestly can't picture him as a bad boy rocker with his gentle and kind heart and he loves with his whole heart.Dean takes Mac for some ink of her own and again my opinion on inking comes through strongly....don't ink just for the sake of inking it must have a story behind it, it should be sentimental♥The next scene has me screaming and crying like a banshee much to the shock and entertainment of those around me!  I can't help myself, its just so much to take in and I'm begging Mac not to run :(  By now I must look like a total nutter, and having a head of blue hair doesn't help either lol!!!Mac needs to live and put her ghosts to rest, Dean is an amazing man!  At the same time, I'm so proud of the progress she's made by opening "Katie Bird" and bless his rocker heart he pitches on opening night and fights for them♥ he reads her like a book and our girl has a 2nd chance at happily ever after.The Luckiest was a beautiful ★★★★★ love story with some good vibes and tunes along the way.Reviewed by Heidi
