Bet on Love is about a woman, Shelby, who is unlucky in love but has a great career. At a friend's wedding in Vegas, she meets up with an old flame, Cole, and they hit it off. A few tequila shots and a severe hungover later, they wake up to find that they're married. Shelby and Cole are horrified and they set to go back to Cole's hometown to get the marriage annulled and the fun begins.PROS: It's a short read and you'll probably finish it in a sitting or a couple of days. It's a cute little story and pretty sensual, but not erotic, at a couple of times. You do root for Shelby and Cole.CONS: Shelby, as much as you adore her, you also get pretty annoyed with her. I personally thought she hit a few stupid branches. I think if her character was a bit more sympathetic or even empathetic, it would've been a better story. I also think it would've been a better story if it was written in third-person to get an idea of Cole's feelings, though the author does a great job of showing his facial expressions and stances.While the story is predictable and it is a tried and true formula, it is a cute story. I do recommend it.
