* I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.Well who would have thought that the furniture making industry could be the setting for such a sexy romance? Not me that’s for sure!I really enjoyed Avery Flynn’s Betting the Billionaire. It was a quick, fun read that didn’t skip out on the sexy goodness between the characters. There was a lot of sexual tension between Gabe and Keisha as well as some great snarky moments.Keisha was car savvy, Gabe, not so much, he was totally useless when it came to cars but that didn’t dim his masculine vibe one bit. In fact, it gave this otherwise flawless man a vulnerable side, a weakness that made him more likable. Plus, the role reversal helped define who they were and the differences in their upbringings. Whereas Gabe had almost everything handed to him, Keisha has had to work hard to get where she is and given that she is her father’s only child, she has had to be both daughter and son which meant working with her hands. Alot.I did have to wonder though, how someone like Gabe, that is supposed to be so smart as to become a self made millionaire could be so stupid as to jump to conclusions when all he had was a handful of facts. I guess his arrogance got the best of him. Still, Gabe isn’t so arrogant to where he can’t admit he made a mistake.The chemistry between the two characters was super sexy and I enjoyed that Gabe and Keisha had a strong attraction going way before they even met in person. Keisha may have known what Gabe looked like but Gabe had no idea what Keisha looked like. When they finally do meet, the sexual tension goes through the roof.I enjoyed the plot, the characters, really I can't find any reason to complain about Betting the Billionaire!Final Verdict: A romance in the furniture industry may not sound like much but Avery Flynn made it seem like every story should take place among wood and handmade pieces of art.
