Blurb
What happens when your sex strike goes viral -- and suddenly every man in town has their eye on your prize?
All I wanted was little old-fashioned romance. After a parade of Tinder disasters who think chivalry is giving me a pearl necklace on the first date, I made a pledge: until guys step up their game, this girl is off the market.
But one bottle of chardonnay later, and my drunken rant has gone viral. I’m the most famous person NOT having sex since the Jonas Brothers put on their purity rings. A men’s magazine has even put a bounty on my (ahem) maidenhead: fifty Gs to whoever makes me break the drought.
Be careful what you wish for...
Now my office looks like an explosion in a Hallmark factory, I’ve got guys lining up to sweep me off my feet - and the one man I want is most definitely off-limits. Jake Weston is a player through and through. He’s also the only one who sees through the mayhem to the real me, but how can I trust he’s not just out to claim the glory?
And how will I make it through the strike without scratching the itch - especially when that itch looks so damn good out of his suit?
The thrill of the chaste has never been so sexy in Lila Monroe’s hilarious, hot new romantic read!
REVIEW
Review by: Melanie
(4.5 stars)
Ok, so anyone that knows me, knows that I mainly read dark books. MC, dark romance, MMA fighters, basically down right dirty, gritty books... you get the idea. So anyway, my point is that for me to read a rom com is so far from the norm, I even shocked myself, but there was just something about the blurb that made me think. Yeah, I quite fancy that. Oh, I’m so glad I took a break from my norm.
Bet Me was such a good read. It had humour, a little bit of drama, and some sexy times. Mainly though it was just funny and I literally laughed out loud on a few occasions. I thought the flashback to the night Jake and Lizzie first met was just hilarious, and her dating escapades were highly amusing. I was definitely routing for Jake to get the girl though, and I really liked this pair of characters. I can’t really say anything about the plot without giving spoilers, but I will say that the way this book made me feel was like watching a mix of Bridget Jones and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.
I really enjoyed my first read of a Lila Monroe book and I give Bet Me 4.5 stars.
