The Wager

Summary

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Bet comes The Wager.

Lose a bet, lose your heart.

What is it about a junior high crush that can send an otherwise intelligent woman into a tailspin? Television reporter Char Lynn wishes she knew. Jake Titus is too rich, too handsome, too arrogant: a trifecta that once lured Char into the best night—and worst morning after—of her life. Now they've been thrown together in a wedding party. It's awkward, but survivable—until Jake stops acting like a jerk and starts acting like the man she had always hoped he could be.

If watching your brother marry your best friend is weird, being attracted to your best friend's other best friend is downright bizarre. Unfortunately for Jake, Char hasn't forgotten how he once tossed her aside. Worse still, Jake's already nutty grandma is even crazier about Char. Cue cute shenanigans and all manner of meddling, and somehow, Jake is falling—for Char. Now all he has to do is make her believe it!
