This is the first book I have read from author Rachel Van Dyken.  I was apprehensive of reading this book because this is the second one in The Bet series. I was told that this book can be read as a standalone, but I was still a bit concerned about not reading the first book.  So I went into reading this book thinking I’m going to be lost, but I was wrong.I was cracking up reading this book. Grandma Nadine is in the center of this series and is the most entertaining person in the series.  There are of course in this new adult romance two people – Jake and Char – who are the lead characters in this book. Surprisingly the grandmother is intertwined in the whole story. Without giving the book away, this grandmother makes the story and takes away the spotlight from all the other characters.The good thing about this book you jump right in.  You don’t notice the fact that you haven’t read the first book but the other two characters from the first book are present. While reading this book you kinda figure out what happened to the other couple in this book series.  I enjoy the heck out of reading about the shenanigans that the two major characters in the book go through and they’ll have you cracking up. I again had to tweet the author and ask her if this grandma existed in real life and yes, she is based on her real grandmother.  I would say that this book is not a major thriller, but it does have some twists and turns in a couple of surprises. This book is not just a new adult Romance book, it is also a comedy entertainment book. I really enjoyed this New Adult comedy ,and if you like some comedy with your love stories this book is for you.If you like this review you can follow my reviews at [...]
