Beginner's Bet

By: Fiona Riley

Narrated by: Melissa Sternenberg

Ellison Gamble owns the most successful luxury real estate firm in Boston, but the accomplishment feels hollow when she comes home to an empty house.

Institutionalizing her mother for her own safety was the hardest thing Katie Crawford has ever done. The costs are becoming more than she can manage, and her only solution is to sell her childhood home that has fallen into disrepair.

After a tense first interaction with Katie, Ellison eventually finds herself in an unlikely friendship, and makes a risky offer to help Katie sell her mother’s home. Katie will do anything to help her mom, but being attracted to a woman for the first time was not in the plan.

Will the risks they take be worth the reward? Or have they wagered on a losing bet?

So good!

One of the best by Fiona for sure! I’d even love a sequel! Loved both Ellison and Katie’s characters!

Great Story

At times, the narrator sounds more like she's reading than one of the characters.

One of my favorite books

Love the book and the narration. I have listened to this book and series multiple times over the years. The story is just so sweet and sexy.

The best out of the set

Ellison is such a great character. I admit I wasn't buying this connection with her and Katie, but over the course of the book you start to get really invested in the HEA. It's a very enjoyable story. Highly recommended 👌

Excellent

This by far was my most favorite of this series. Loved how it began the in-between as well as the ending. I couldn't stop listening until it ended, and still listened to it all over again. Great story and great narration!!
