Betting on the Boy Next Door

Betting on Love, Book 1

De: Melanie Jacobson

Narrado por: Devon Sorvari, Blake Lockheart

Make one stupid bet, and suddenly, you're fake dating your hot new neighbor...

There is nothing like hiding a secret identity from your roommate besties to complicate... everything. And when they decide I need a love life makeover, I can't tell them why I don't have time for their schemes.

Retirement home nurse by day, lead singer of a rock band by night. Not on the schedule: Men. I'd rather cuddle with Bernice, the hangry boa next door.

I can't think of an excuse fast enough to get out of betting my prime parking space against them finding me true love, but luckily, they pick the worst possible guy for me.

Sure, our new neighbor, Josh, is hot, but he's from an Austin family whose money is so old it's dusty. Been there, done that, and I'm not going back to be broken again by a man just like my ex. This bet is as good as won.

The thing is, Josh isn't easy to shake, especially after he discovers my rock 'n' roll alter ego.

When a fake dating agreement, a cursing parrot, and our late-night balcony talks lead to kisses so hot they melt me, I'm forced to decide: can I gamble my heart on a society guy who is expected to settle down with someone exactly not like me?

USA Today bestselling author Melanie Jacobson returns with this laugh-out-loud romcom that delivers plenty of sparks without the spice.

Such a fun book!

I loved the characters and all the many side stories in this book! The best friends, the family stories and the fun!

Wonderful light read

I liked the characters. They each had worked hard to figure out what they want out of life. It's nice when you can do it together.

Amazing Characters

Loved a rarely used plot, the main characters are relatable, and I want to be part of their friend pack. The grandparents are supportive and entertaining! I am excited to what is next in this series, and very worth the credit!

Loved everything about it!

Fun story that kept me wanting to hear what happens next. Great performance from both. Definitely recommend.

sweet, fun & funny story!

really enjoyed this story. tender romance with some struggles. I liked the way each part of the couple worked to help the other solve their family issues.

It’s okay to change your life

First meet, I see no chemistry, Sammie definitely isn’t looking for a relationship. Josh is struggling to have his family and work accept him as a good guy. Grandma and grandpa are my favorites. Their parents can’t see them as anything other than what they were.

So cute

I just loved this!!! It’s so cute and sweet and well written! The story was perfect

Too much swearing

I did not care for the swearing and thought it was completely unnecessary. Otherwise, it was cute.

Fun Story

A very different story. Two people from opposite sides of the street finding their way to each other. And CLEAN.
