“ This is, if I remember correctly, the first novel in the Santangelo family saga and really enjoyable. Collins does a good job of combining just enough fact with her fiction of the old time Mafia to make for a convincing read. If you are looking for an intriguing story to immerse yourself in, maybe after studying hard all semester or relaxing on a weekend, read Chances and then follow it up with Lucky, you won't want them to end! A side note though, the made-for TV movie based off of these two books was gag-me horrible, don't do it to yourself.”
