THE WAGER
Lose a bet, lose your heart...
What is it about a junior-high crush that can send an otherwise intelligent woman into a tailspin? TV reporter Char Lynn wishes she knew. Jake Titus is too rich, too handsome, too arrogant: a trifecta that once lured Char into the best night-and worst morning-after-of her life. Now they've been thrown together in a wedding party. It's awkward, but survivable . . . until Jake stops acting like a jerk, and starts acting like the man she'd always hoped he could be.
If watching your brother marry your best friend is weird, being attracted to your best friend's other best friend is downright bizarre. Unfortunately for Jake, Char hasn't forgotten how he once tossed her aside. Worse still, Jake's already-nutty grandma is even crazier about Char. Cue meet-cute shenanigans and all manner of meddling, and somehow, Jake's falling. For Char. Now all he has to do is make her believe it . . .

I really enjoyed this book!! I think like many other people who have read this book, Grandma is just hilarious!! I couldn’t stop laughing at parts of the story because of the things that she would say. Her attitude and just overall personality was amazing!
I did think that the book was a bit predicable, but the
storyline itself was very entertaining.
I think that the characters were written very well and where able to
play off of each other throughout the story.
I liked following along as Jake went through the ringer and came out a
better person. I did feel like certain
parts of the story felt rushed along. If
I had someone pull what Jake did, I sure as heck wouldn’t take him back without
any serious begging.
I have not read The Bet, but you can bet after reading this
one, I will be sure to check it out!
Love the giveaways!
