When it comes to life’s
fun and games, always know:
The rules.
What’s at stake.
When to quit.
Wise words from…well…my
fortune cookie. But wise words, nonetheless.
I just wish the Fortune
Cookie People had considered how hard the whole “knowing when to quit” would be
to carry out when a woman like me is gambling with her feelings.
Heart-palpitating,
vageen-tingling, butterflies-in-my-belly feelings for a noncommittal,
hot-as-sin player by the name of Jude Winslow.
After a crazy night
where we were both pretending to be someone else, I’ve found myself immersed in
the fun of the fling.
The thrill.
The irresistible charm.
The pleasure of
being with a man like him.
Problem is, I’m positive
he’s the exact opposite of husband material, and that is a serious issue
for someone who is fixated on finding her happily ever after.
I know the rules and I
know the stakes, oh wise Fortune Cookie.
Now I’d just like to
know how close to self-destruction I have to get before I find the will to quit
Jude Winslow.
Goodness knows, when your heart is on the line, you can’t ante up your
bet with an IOU.
Adorable!
Jude is just so hilarious and sweet! All the brothers are amazing - can't wait to read all the stories!!
I just love this family and Lexi - the niece is just too cute - especially when she's with her uncles! LOL!
And of course we get our Thatch cameos - I think it should be a law that every future book will get a Thatch cameo! π
And still I'm asking myself: How are none of Max Monroe's books streaming their behinds off on Netflix yet??? The world is a weird and sad place!!
A few tiny things. First... this confused me a bit. The title. The Bet. Ok... we get that one bet at the beginning - that's how Sophie and Jude meet. But then we get nothing betty anymore. I thought that was going to be their thing. But there's only a tiny little bet at the end. I wished there would've been a few more bet scenearios in the story!
And then .. I know that's just me... but I don't find the hugely announced hilariousness of the story... funny. Did my humor die after reading a billion books or even just dozens of Max Monroe books? I just don't think this was ΓΌber funny?! There were funny moments ... but nothing where I would spit out my drink or anything. :( But again - that's just me - going in expecting too much. But also - they tell you in the beginning to expect something extremely hilarious. :(
Then ... the cover. While a really cute/hot guy. I just can't stand the hand on/at the face thing. Just like the Max Monroe Cowboy book - that was even worse!
