The Bet (The Bet #1) By Rachel Van Dyken



"I have a proposition for you." Kacey should have run the minute those words left Seattle millionaire Jake Titus's mouth. It's been years since Kacey's seen her childhood friend Jake, but the minute Jake mentions his ill grandmother, Kacey is ready to do anything for the sweet old woman. And if that means pretending they're engaged for her sake-so be it.

But Kacey wasn't counting on Jake's older brother Travis still being there. She calls him "Satan" for a reason: she's never forgotten the way he teased and taunted her. Yet when they meet again, Travis's gorgeous smile is a direct hit to her heart . . . and Kacey's more confused than ever. As the days pass, only one thing starts to become alarmingly clear-she never should have accepted Jake's deal ...


What a great start to a great series. I've read all three now as I write this review, so make sure you check out my other reviews. 

Kacey I felt was a little naive when it came to Jake. I mean seriously, he was egotistic, pig headed, full of himself jerk and she still said yes. Blooming yes. 
What Kacey nor Jake were counting on was 'Grandma' and holy hell she's a freaking legend LOL 

Grandma is 80 something and you'd think she was only in her late twenties the way she carries on through the book aha. Most people her age are nitting, reading and having naps, not our grandma though. 
She had planned the little get together by manipulating her grandchildren and Kacey. So funny to see. 

Now the chemistry between Kacey and Travis is hot. Like seriously hot. It also shows throwing stones doesn't always get you the girl. Yep, Listen up boys, don't throw stones at a girl you like or pull their hair. It will only lead to hate and in this case, war between two people. 
The things they had done to each other had me in stitches. It's something that can easily happen between enemy's, especially when they're close like Travis and Kacey were. 

All in all I loved this story.
