Lucky Girl by Cate Lord

What a sweet book! It reminded me of an Americanized version of Bridget Jones, although it does take place in England. This book follows this well endowed young lady (practically ancient - almost 30!!) who has been jilted by her fiance and has traveled to England for a vacation. She meets a gorgeous specimen of a man and several embarrassing antics later, she finds herself enamored with him.
I lIke that the main character is not the perfect model, but she is adored and found sexy by many people. I like that the women in the book take control of their own destiny, but there seems to be a bit too much "hey, I need a man to be complete." Not the greatest message for young women.
With a predictable ending, the plot is one that I've seen many times before, but the different characters give it a unique twist. 3 stars!
