BOOKWORM REVIEW: Bet Me by Allie Everhart

RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
STEAM: 🔥🔥

If you're looking for fun, low-angst, small-town rivals-to-lovers, this is a good pick.

Gina just inherited a great space in Hayden Falls from her grandfather. Since bartending and brewing beers are what she does best, she uses the space to open her own microbrewery. 

Too bad it directly competes with Sawyer Kanfield's microbrewery on Hayden Fall's main street. And Sawyer is not thrilled about it. Especially since Gina was the girl that kept kicking his behind at all competitions in camp. Okay, he might have developed a small crush on the girl toward the end of the summer, but that was all in the past, right?

I like the dynamic between Sawyer and Gina. Their chemistry was definitely palpable from their first meetup (as adults), and I love the playful tug-of-war between them as they navigated through their feelings. 

The ensemble cast was also fantastic. I love Sawyer's family, especially his dad. Near-death experiences give you a different perspective on life and love, and he provided a wonderful reminder not just to Sawyer and Gina but also to us readers that life is borrowed time. 

The couple steamy moments were definitely hot, but Allie Everhart did not linger there with details. This is not an implication that it was bad at all; I thought it aligned very well with the tone and pace of the book. This book focused more on Sawyer and Gina's connection and how they could overcome huge adversities around their businesses and family dynamics.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Sawyer Kanfield
Smoking hot. Sexy as hell.
And the one person who could put me out of business.

If he thinks he's going to run me out of town for opening a microbrewery that competes with his, he's in for a fight.

And I'm going to win.

The Kanfield name will get him a few customers, but he knows my beer is better than his. That's why he keeps trying so hard to get close to me.

Flirty comments. Dinner invites. A kiss. He can do all that and more, but I'll never give him my secrets.

I admit I'm attracted to him, but I won't let that distract me. The stakes are too high. I put everything I have into this brewery and if it doesn’t succeed I’ll be left with nothing.

In a town this size, only one of us will survive and it's going to be me.

Except I'm starting to really like the jerk...

Is it possible to have both my brewery and Sawyer? Or will I be forced to choose?
