The Break-Up Bet by Cat Carmine-Reviews



Blurb

Never make a bet with a man who plays to win... 

Especially not a man like handsome, arrogant Connor Pratt.

AKA the huge PITA who’s currently crashing in my spare room.

AKA my brother’s best friend since they were about six.

AKA the one guy who still makes me feel like an awkward tongue-tied loser.

But when Connor moved in, I got a glimpse of another side of him. Because, like me, Connor’s going through a nasty break-up. And, like me, he’s just doing whatever he can to get through it.

Unfortunately, his method involves drinking alarming amounts of whiskey and watching a lot of, um … movies … that make every inch of my skin flush.

I’m just trying to be helpful when I tell him that he should try my way: copious amounts of baked goods, sappy romantic comedies, and late nights spent whining with girlfriends.

But I should have known Connor would take that as a challenge.

Now, he says he’ll try my way of dealing with a break-up … but only if I agree to try his. Six months rent to the person whose method works best.

We call it the break-up bet. And I’m going to win. Except right now, it feels like there’s a whole lot more at stake than just rent money…

THE RULE BREAKER BY CAT CARMINE-RELEASE BLITZ



Blurb

He’s the bad boy … but I’m the one breaking all the rules.

I’ve always been the quintessential good girl. I don’t just follow the rules — I write them. As an advice columnist, I’m always telling people how to not screw up their lives.

So you’d think I’d know better than to bang some random guy in a bar bathroom.

Nope. Apparently not.

Now I’ve got even bigger problems, though. Because it turns out that wasn’t just some random guy. It was Tyler Grant. Rich. Playboy. Devastatingly gorgeous. Oh, and the publisher of my new dating advice book.

All my instincts are telling me to run like hell. It’s what I’d advise anyone else to do.

Nope. I’ve had a taste, and I’m hooked.

Now I’m calling him at ungodly hours and showing up at his house drunk and begging for sex and tacos. In other words, breaking every rule in my own damn book.

Of course, you don’t have to be an advice columnist to know a bad boy and a good girl are never going to work out. Someone’s going to get their heart broken.

And my guess? It isn’t going to be him.



I enjoy books where one of the characters grows and learns that maybe, just maybe, the way they have seen the world isn't exactly the way things really are, or how they should be.

Tyler and Emma meet in a bar. And, they have hot, quick, dirty sex in the bar's bathroom...and they never see each other again.

Wait, nope. That's not what happens. In fact, Tyler is the publisher of her new dating advice book. You know, the book that says, among other things, not to have sex in bar bathrooms on the night you meet each other for the first time. But...details.

Her book says a lot of other things about why her any Tyler just won't work. The problem? her heart says otherwise.

I enjoyed this book, and the idea that Emma is living the exact like she says not to in her book. But, she believed her book when she wrote it, so the change from the person who believes what she wrote to the person who takes it back to live life with the person she loves.

I enjoyed this book, the characters, and their journey.
