LIVE: I Bet You, Ilsa Mills
She’s the one bet I can’t resist...
Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills returns with an all-new swoon-fest of a novel about what happens when you look beyond labels and take a chance on love.
I Bet You, an all-new sexy college romance standalone is LIVE!
Ilsa kept up her theme so far in this series - super hot and not so jerk jock and super nerdy and peculiar heroine - and there is nothing not to love about it. Once again she wrote a super fun and cute story set in the college sports world. There is almost nothing I love more than that combo.
When it comes to her characters they are always so funny with just the right amount of angst in their lives. This time, the bearer of angst was our heroine with her relationship with her parents. I felt so much for her and I understood her fear when it came to jocks and especially Ryker but still she tried to show no weakness and she put herself out there.
Penelope is very headstrong, her sass is hilarious and it’s part of this book’s greatness. Ryker, just like Maverick had been, is your typical jock with a sweet heart hiding behind his social status. His sweetness and romantic side came as a surprise but were so welcome. You’ll fall for him, in no time, trust me, it was so easy. He is everything you want in a book boyfriend - sexy jock, sweet side, romantic, fun in and out of the bedroom - your typical alpha male goodness! Honestly couldn’t have loved these characters more! They had insane chemistry and where Ryker was, Penelope was on fire with her sass, I loved it so much. These two were so different from each other but they were meant to be and it was the best thing watching them go from ‘enemies’ to friends to everything else. Their story has its ups and downs, other people and secrets in the mix but it was the perfect story and I devoured it.
One thing I do have to complain about is not enough Maverick, Ryker mentions him a bunch of times but he only actually makes one appearance and my heart wasn’t satisfied. I wish he had appeared more *sigh*. But other than that this book was super great and I can’t wait to see where Lisa takes it. I kind of want a Blaze and Charisma book, it sounds like it would be fun too. Charisma seems a bit crazy and quirky herself and Blaze seems like another good guy hiding behind his jockness. I honestly wouldn’t mind if this series went on forever. Give me all the sweet jocks and nerdy girls.
