Review: Holy Wow!
Rating: 5 out of 5

The first book I read by Rachel Van Dyken was Ruin and I LOVED it. Then she just released The Wager (Book 2 in The Bet series) so I read The Bet (Book 1) and then The Wager back to back. I love when a book makes me feel...really feel. Like when the characters are hurting I can literally feel it in my chest and when they are happy I FEEL it. The Wager absolutely made me feel. I didn't like Jake much in The Bet, which is fine because it wasn't about him. But I fell in love with him in The Wager. I loved watching Char and Jake realize how they felt...and I LOVE Grandma Nadine! Talk about a pain in the arse but for all the right reasons. Great characters, smooth storyline, plenty of angst and plenty of passion. Definitely a 5* book! I can't wait to read more from Ms. Van Dyken
