When Rachel gifted me "Bet in the Dark" & asked if I wouldn't mind reviewing it, I think I passed out for a sec...... OMG!!! OMG!! OMG!!! I LOVED this book!! There was never a dull moment & it kept me glued to my to my iPad for 2 days!! Ok, can I just say how much I adored Fin??? I just couldn't help but fall in love with him!! He's just so freaking sweet!! Um..... I guess I should tell you about the book now???Ellie Harris is your average collage student just trying to do her best & finish school. In a stroke of misfortune, her high school boyfriend dumps her & her room mate takes off with most of Ellie's furniture. As if this wasn't enough, Fin Hunter shows up demanding a large sum of money he swears Ellie owes him from on line gambling debt. Unable to convince Fin it was actually her room mate who owes him the money & too embarrassed to ask her family for help, Ellie agrees to work for Fin in exchange for the money. Ellie is instantly attracted to the sexy, charming, cocky & intelligent Fin. Unfortunately this sexy hunk of man meat comes with a hefty manwhore of a reputation & Ellie refuses to become a notch on Fin's sliver of a bedpost. Things heat up quickly for this pair as they try desperately & fail miserably to fight the growing attraction between them. Fin wants to change his old habits & he's no longer able to fight his feelings for her attempts to let Ellie out of the deal. She however refuses Fin's offer determined to show him she's able to keep her promise & repay her debt. Will Ellie listen to her heart & admit she's falling in love with Fin? You'll have to read to find out.What I thought:I couldn't put this book down, from the first word to the last sentence this book had me in a trance!! The sexual tension between Ellie & Fin was so thick, if it snapped in half you'd hear it!!!! Rachel did a phenomenal job of keeping the tension going the whole book without making it cheesy, raunchy or annoying. I think what I enjoyed the most about this book was watching how both Ellie & Fin matured during their time together. It wasn't just them as a couple growing but becoming stronger individuals as well.
