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.
Author Note: The Bet is a full-length standalone romantic comedy and the first standalone book in the Winslow Brothers Collection. This book is chock-full of hilarious rom-com moments, but also, it’s spicy. We’re talking alllllll the sexy.
Sophie is a verrrry lucky girl… 😉

Sophie,
I had to propose to you five times before you said yes.
Five times, Soph. But you know what? Crazily enough, I secretly love that you made me work for it.
You’re strong, sassy, and sexy as hell, and this is the first Valentine’s Day that I can say you’re my wife. A woman who knows her worth and still decided to give herself to me.
Damn, I’m never going to get tired of patting myself on the back for landing you.
Sure, I’m still the same cocky, unbelievably sexy man who gave you the hottest lap dance of your life on the first night we met, but I’m also a man who wants to treat you like the queen that you are and display my gratitude. Starting tonight.I’m going to earn the honor of being your valentine.
That’s right, my sweet, sexy Sophie. The Secret Club is in session, and it’s about to be a long, glorious, fan-fucking-tastic night of badge earning. Rest up, baby. Here we go.
Love,
Jude
