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.

Nice story

The story is nice but the male narrator is horrible!!! Really horrible! Fortunately, he only has a few short chapters in the book. The female narrator, on the other hand, deserves 5 stars.

I feel like Lucy is my sister

I feel like Lucy is my sister, like we share the same father and are carrying the same voids. I couldn't believe how much I could relate to her trauma, feels like the author must of taken notes from my life...
Overall it gave me hope of some day getting over it all.

Female narrator should have read the whole book!

Enjoyable story, but my days. Alexander Cendese (as per usual) sounds like a frat boy excitedly reading romance. Just awful 😖 The number of books he has spoiled for me 🙄 I only persevered because I'd read the 3 books before this one and wanted to know what happened to Lucy!

very nice story

I liked the story, not too predictable. I did not like the voice of the male reader, but is not terrible

Lovely story

It’s a sweet story and a pleasant escape. The pace is good. There is something off with the sound though. Alexander Cendese sounds like he was recorded in a cupboard. The female narrator has a wholesome sound to her, which is much nicer. I also don’t like how AC always sounds like he is joking even if he is talking about serous stuff. I suspect that’s down to the producer, but it’s a shame as I know he can narrate more compelling.
