What if you had the winning lottery ticket that would change your life forever, but you couldn't cash it in?

Lucky Armstrong is in real trouble. Having just pulled off a million-dollar heist with her boyfriend, she's preparing to start a brand-new life when everything goes sideways. Suddenly Lucky finds herself completely alone, without the help of either her father or her boyfriend - from whom she's learned the art of the scam.

When Lucky discovers that a lottery ticket she bought on a whim is worth millions, her elation is tempered by one big problem: cashing it in means she'll be arrested for her crimes.

As Lucky tries to avoid capture and make a future for herself, she must find a way to confront her own past and learn what it means to be independent and honest . . . before her luck runs out.

This New York Times bestseller and Reese's Book Club Pick will take you on an exhilarating rollercoaster ride about a heist gone terribly wrong...

Praise for this book

"Stapley’s gorgeous writing cuts to the bone, and her grifter heroine, both vulnerable and fierce, is driven by a genius premise. With equally compelling alternate timelines, Stapley takes readers on a gripping, heart-wrenching journey of resilience, hope, and redemption. A stunning read!" - Samantha M Bailey

"Meet Lucky Armstrong, an unconventional heroine who is on the run from her past with a winning lottery ticket that could change her future. A story of survival, redemption, and forgiveness, Lucky explores the power of second chances. A riveting caper full of heart, I loved this book!" - Karma Brown

"With Lucky, Marissa Stapley has created a complicated woman just as magnetic and compelling for her readers as she is for the people she fleeces—and luckily, readers will only get richer by being swept away with her story of curious fortunes." - Kerry Clare

"An honestly moving and propulsive book about the art of the con, Lucky has the pathos of Paper Moon and the bite of The Grifters shot through with real heart and humour. Even though she’s one charming criminal, you’ll root for Luciana ‘Lucky’ Armstrong—a vibrant, sexy, full-blooded character—to get what she (really) deserves in life, which is for her luck to never run out." - Lisa Gabriele

"This fast-paced, plot-driven tale is full of unexpected plot twists that’ll keep you guessing what will happen to Lucky and the lottery ticket until the very last page. Part action-adventure, part family saga, Lucky is full of heart. Stapley expertly navigates multiple timelines and storylines, carefully intertwining them and making you care about every character—good or evil. A gets-your-heart-racing, page-turning thrill of a ride." - Chantel Guertin

"A grifter on the run who wins the lottery is only the opening gambit of this high-fueled twisty tale through the life of Lucky, daughter of a con artist who seemed doomed to make her father’s mistakes. Will the money save her and provide her with redemption or lead her down darker paths? You’ll want to put this on your to-read list immediately." - Catherine McKenzie

"With an original premise, a gutsy-yet-vulnerable heroine, dodgy villains, and bad choices galore, Marissa Stapley's highly entertaining Lucky is sure to wow readers. Fast-paced, skillfully crafted, and beautifully written, this book had me stay up late and get up early to find out what would happen to that winning lottery ticket. I loved it!" - Hannah Mary McKinnon

"This fun romp, with deeper themes of identity, family ties, and the meaning of truth in a life built on lies, kept me greedily turning pages late into the night. Perfect for book clubs—or anyone looking for their next unputdownable read." - Colleen Oakley

"A wild and deeply satisfying rollercoaster ride through the world of a con artist with a heart of gold. Propulsive and affecting, Lucky is the most fun I’ve had reading a book in quite a while." - Taylor Jenkins Reid

"Marissa Stapley’s novels are always filled with strong, intriguing women and Lucky is no exception. Lucky Armstrong is the flawed, fascinating character at the heart of this gripping novel, and as we follow the twists and turns of her adventures, we’re not sure where she’s going to take us—but it’s a hell of a fun ride." - Elizabeth Renzetti
