Perfect ending to this amazing series!!

This is the long awaited book for Chase and Bridget. This relationship has been dangling in front of us since the first book and I am here for it. Chase has been my consistent favorite side character in each book, so seeing him as a main character finally

The final chapter of the Poker Club gave us all the feels! I'm really going to miss this group! Betting Man was everything we wanted and more. Chase and Bee finally got their happily ever after and their story didn't disappoint. My new favorite line is "I love you. Don't ever doubt it." I am so happy that I found author Maggie Gates. Her writing has only gotten better with each book. And she knows how to bring the spice! I can't wait to read more from her. Go start Poker Face now and meet this awesome group!

Unfortunately, I can only give this book 5 stars (how rude is that?) because more are not allowed (100% would give more!!)

Holy heck,Batman, I am wrecked. This book was such a beautiful close off to the series, and there are so many feelings right now.

Firstly, Chase Brannan is everything and I’m even a little jealous of Bee (but mostly happy for them). You will cry all the happy tears (and damn Chase

The perfect ending to the Poker Face series. The tidbits and peeks into Chase and Bridget’s lives that we’ve been given over the last five books was worth the wait. It picks up right where Mel and Jason’s story left off (ugh that cliffhanger!), and we dive right into it. This series has been light and fun, so this one weighs a bit heavier but in all the right ways. Love!!

What a perfect ending to an amazing series!!!! Maggie did an amazing job, and I can’t thank her enough for this wonderful series! Chase is patient, loving, and so so kind! You get to see him show his true feelings!! And Bridget is the strongest woman!! She might have been knocked down, but she gets her revenge in the end! Sad to see these characters leave, but what a way to go!!!

i really enjoyed the thrill of the chase but i also was a little disappointed by the book overall. 

from book one, we get teased with the great love that's between chase and bee and throughout the five other books you get to see these two idiots being head over heels for the other but being to cowardly to do anything. and this didn't deliver what I wanted it to. 

Bee is an absolute gem and a warrior and i want to protect her at all cost. the punch? yes queen. i really loved her growth and healing process and her relationship with Luna. The one with chase was a bit of a let down. 

I feel like because of the pressure of the 5 previous books, them finally getting back together felt really rushed and "forced". I know that everybody heals and deals with their trauma on their own time but one minute Bee was against Chase even seeing her and the next they were already dating. 

I understand that Chase is the population favourite but he's such a coward in my opinion. don't get me wrong. i loved the way he loved Bee but he was such a baby about his feelings, it was pathetic. 

edit: originally a 3 but gave it an additional point because i loved thrill + luna is adorable.

I knew Chase and Bee’a story would grab my heart, and it definitely did not disappoint. Any girl who’s gone thru what Bee did needs a Chase to help her heal. I’ll never look at tulips the same!! I can’t believe this series is done, I’m going to miss these characters so much!! TW for domestic violence.
