Jason’s Luck is a romance novel written by The M. Girls
Jason and Chris Salvator are twin brothers. Chris lives a modest life in California while Jason is the CEO of A&M Corportation which owns bars and clubs across the country and lives in New York. Melody Zamora is a 21 year old girl who has moved to California to get away from her family. Chris meets Melody at school while Melody is lost looking for the registrar’s office. Chris asks Melody to have dinner with him, his girlfriend and his brother, Jason, who is flying into town that night. When Jason and Melody meet, it’s love at first sight. Jason immediately falls in love with Melody and is determined to find a way to keep her in his life. Melody, on the other hand, gets a little scared with Jason’s immediate affections.
Discovering a bad experience from Melody’s past, Jason makes one more attempt at capturing Melody’s heart. Melody, realizing that her feelings mirror Jason’s, decides to take the leapt of faith and gives Jason her heart. The two lovebird’s new relationship moves very quickly and soon Melody finds herself moving to New York with Jason.
Now back in New York, Jason is back to work. Jason has just successfully secured a merger that he has been working really hard on. On the night of the banquet to celebrate the merger, Jason learns a very important piece of Melody’s history that he hadn’t known before. Melody and Jason realize that they still have a lot to learn from each other if they want to make their relationship last.
The storyline is easy to follow and plays on the dream of love at first sight with an attractive, rich man and having the happily ever after. Melody is the girl who is swept off her feet by rich and attractive Jason, who wants to be with her forever. Jason is portrayed as the perfect gentleman, showering gifts, compliments and affections on Melody.
Overall, this book is an easy read but moves slowly. It was easy to read but didn’t contain that much action and at times it was predictable. I felt like I already knew how the story would end and I thought that the writing could use some work in terms of building up more action or tension. I would have liked to see more side stories or some plot twists with the main characters to keep the book exciting.
I would give this book a 3 out of 4 stars due to the predictability of this book and I felt that there should be more to the storyline. I enjoyed reading it because the plot line was easy to follow and the characters easy to relate to. I think this book would appeal to young adults, preferably girls who enjoy reading romance novels about young love. If you are looking for a book with action and suspense along with a love story, this book isn’t for you.
