Krystle has always yearned to live a different kind of life, so when she hits the jackpot, quite literally, she's over the moon.
At last she'll get the chance to live in a gorgeous house, drive the car of her dreams and maybe even track down that elusive soulmate at last!
It all sounds perfect – but can reality ever live up to your dreams?
Oh, and we are back with another winner with this installment from the Little Duck Pond Café. This time, however, we don’t see any of the girls, just a brief mention. This time we are focusing on the twins Krystle and Carrie who work up in the manor café…or they did!
How amazing would it be to win the lottery! But money can be evil, and this time it was given a face. It’s always worrying how quickly things can spiral out of control with money and this was another story that takes a darker look at things that should be nice. Krystle is a loveable character and just wants to see the best people, and not very good with money – she’s me! LOL. But she means well and unfortunately, her good nature is preyed upon. I felt her nervousness, her excitement, and her unawareness of what is going to happen.
I loved the whole ‘Who is this person’? Who will Krystle end up with? And will Ryan please just go away!!
I do love this series and each time I know the next one is about to drop, I am there. I devour these novellas way too quickly and now I feel sad as I have nothing more to read. I want more of Krystle and the other characters. I can’t wait to see who the next book is about and what adventures we might have!
Until the next time xxx
