Publisher's Summary

Never make a bet with a man who plays to win....

Especially not a man like handsome, arrogant Connor Pratt. A.k.a. the huge PITA who's currently crashing in my spare room. A.k.a. my brother's best friend since they were about six. A.k.a. the one guy who still makes me feel like an awkward tongue-tied loser.

But when Connor moved in, I got a glimpse of another side of him. Because, like me, Connor's going through a nasty break-up. And, like me, he's just doing whatever he can to get through it.

Unfortunately, his method involves drinking alarming amounts of whiskey and watching a lot of, um...movies...that make every inch of my skin flush. I'm just trying to be helpful when I tell him that he should try my method: copious amounts of baked goods, sappy romantic comedies, and late nights spent whining with girlfriends.

But I should have known Connor would take that as a challenge. Now, he says he'll try my way of dealing with a break-up...but only if I agree to try his. Six month's rent to the person whose method works best.

We call it the break-up bet. And I'm going to win. Except right now, it feels like there's a whole lot more at stake than just rent money....

Contains mature themes.

Right from the beginning

Its a total thumbs down. It's awkward and weird from the writing, overall story, the awkward characters (Lucy & Connor), to the narrators voices, How old are these characters? Lucy acts like she's 17 being all awkward with verbal diarrhea. Annoying.

Anastasia Watley reads oddly and Alexander Cendese does this extremely weird female voice. Doesn't matter it was free, free isn't free enough.

Fun & Lighthearted

I enjoyed this book enough to listen for free, but I wouldn't say it was memorable and if I had to spend a credit on it, I would be disappointed. I laughed a few times and enjoyed the chemistry between the characters, there was even a moment of angst and then a sweet HEA. However, I prefer to use my credits on stories with more substance that inspire me to listen again and again.
