The Lucky Sisters by Rachael Johns – Book Review

The Lucky Sisters by Rachael Johns – Adopted twins Nora and Stevie Lucky have always been close, despite being total opposites.

When their mother dies, Nora convinces Stevie to search for their biological parents, only to come face-to-face with a life-changing revelation that sends them spiralling in opposite directions. With their careers, love lives and even their sisterly bond at risk, they’re going to need more than luck to survive.

What would you do if you thought each day on earth might just be your last?
Lucky by name. Not so lucky by nature!!

Although a novel, it does raise many questions regarding adoption and the search for one’s biological parents where so much can be discovered, but not always for the good!

A thought-provoking must-read.

ISBN: 9781761348037

The Lucky Sisters is available in paperback, e-book and audiobook.
