Jack and Hallie make a wager to see who will find true love first, but after a weekend of fake dating, all bets are off. 

This story was cute and had funny moments. I really liked their friendship and their banter was entertaining. That said, their miscommunication was very frustrating. I get that they didn't want to ruin their friendship. Sleeping won't reck your friendship, but sharing your feelings will? I just wanted to shake them and scream at them to get it together! 

I liked the check ins with Colin and Olivia throughout the book.
