Summary
Scarred by her mother's betrayal, Brittany Iverson left home half a lifetime ago for the promise of California, with its vibrant, cosmopolitan lesbian community. She wouldn't go back to Kentucky for a million dollars. But several million? That's a different kettle of fish. All Britt has to do is help resurrect her father's failing business so they can sell it to the highest bidder.
Thanks to a college softball scholarship, Ninah Faust escaped her upbringing as well, leaving Eastern Kentucky's impoverished coal country for the quaint small town of Leland. Now a high-school history teacher, she enjoys a laid-back lifestyle, a close-knit circle of lesbian friends, and the Longdogs, Leland's minor-league baseball team. Ninah knows better than to fall for newcomer Britt, whose plan is to get in, get rich, and get out. Britt knows better, too, since the last thing she needs is a girlfriend in Kentucky. But fall they do - so which one will give up her perfect life for the other?
The Lucky Ones marks a return to the idyllic hamlet of Leland, Kentucky, where you're sure to run into the town's most prominent lesbian couple - Justine Hall and Carly Griffin, from The House on Sandstone.

Sports and …
If you’re a sucker for ‘make it good’ sports books etc then you’ll enjoy this. There are also social issues dealt with alongside an enjoyable romance. All in all there’s plenty to recommend this book.

A good 'Listen'......
A good listen with good narration. The book got a 'bit preachy' especially towards the end. I liked the MC's which always helps.
I'm a Brit so baseball is a bit 'foreign' to me but the book is told in such a way that lack of knowledge doesn't matter much.

A nice wee story that jogs along.
A simple story of family and friends, of second chances. I drive a long way every day to work and this kept me in good company.
