Friday Giveaway: The Love Wager by Lynn Painter

It’s Friday!

Graduation was awesome!  We are so proud of her hard work and so excited to see where that hard work will take her next.

Now that graduation is over and the kids are back home, I am excited to have a quiet weekend to myself. I fear it is one of the few that I will get this summer. so I will try to keep projects and gardening to a minimum and enjoy some quite reading time with a tasty beverage or two.

Speaking of summer reading time, it is past time to start on our summer reading giveaways, you know those lighthearted stories that are great to read on the beach. This week I have a perfect summer read– Lynn Painter’s The Love Wager. This sounds like a lot of fun and has great reviews on Goodreads.

Giveaway is for a paperback copy and is open to U.S. residents only. Giveaway ends Thursday, June 6th.

Hallie Piper is turning over a new leaf. After belly-crawling out of a hotel room (hello, rock bottom), she decides it’s time to become a full-on adult.

She gets a new apartment, a new haircut, and a new wardrobe, but when she logs into the dating app that she has determined will find her new love, she sees none other than Jack, the guy whose room she’d snuck out of.

Through the app, and after the joint agreement that they are absolutely not interested in each other, Jack and Hallie become partners in their respective searches for The One. They text each other about their dates, often scheduling them at the same restaurant so that if things don’t go well, the two of them can get tacos afterward.

Spoiler: they get a lot of tacos together.

Discouraged by the lack of prospects, Jack and Hallie make a wager to see who can find true love first, but when they agree to be fake dates for a weekend wedding, all bets are off.

As they pretend to be a couple, lines become blurred and they each struggle to remember why the other was a bad idea to begin with.
