I Bet You by Ilsa Madden-Mills

3.0

I think I have decided I am trash for Ilsa Madden-Mills writing. I haven't come across a single male lead in her books that I haven't decided is perfection. (I may have a type though).

Ryker Voss is a growly alpha male who thinks he's hot stuff. As the team quarterback he can have any girl he wants (so says he). He set his sights on Penelope and only get more interesting from there.

"Do I make you speechless, Penelope?"

Penelope is a quirky nerd who is basically drop dead. lol But really, she is adorable and so fresh that it is more entertaining to watch her struggle with her attraction to Ryker than anything else. Their chemistry is explosive and his secrets, they're worse.

The steam in this book alone is worth the read- but the characters and their romance, they are the soul. You want to root for Ryker at the same time you want to punch him in the face. The HEA is earned the hard way and every second of the ride is spun in innuendo and sarcasm.

"An asshat with a stupid Rolex"

If you love a good sports romance, read this. Like now.
