Aja and Walker's story is hot, sweet, and utterly unique, with a rock-solid emotional core." - Talia Hibbert, New York Times bestselling author of Act Your Age, Eve BrownThe first time Aja Owens encounters the man of her dreams, she's having a panic attack in the frozen foods section of the Piggly Wiggly. The second time, he's being introduced to her as her favorite bingo buddy's semi-estranged grandson. From there, all it takes is one game for her to realize that he's definitely going to be a problem. And if there's anything she already has a surplus of, it's problems.In Walker Abbott's mind, there are only two worthwhile things in Greenbelt, South Carolina. The peach cobbler at his old favorite diner and his ailing grandmother. Dragging himself back after more than a decade away, he's counting down the days until Gram heals and he can get back to his real life. Far away from the trauma inside of those city limits. Just when he thinks his plan is solid, enter Aja to shake everything up.A hastily made bingo-based sex pact is supposed to keep this...thing between them from getting out of hand. Especially when submitting to their feelings means disrupting their carefully balanced lives. But emotions are just like bingo callers--they refuse to be ignored.Jodie Slaughter's Bet on It is a heart-stoppingly fun, emotional romance that will have readers falling in love until long after the last page is turned."Bet on It reads like the first rays of sun on your face after a long winter. I loved Aja and Walker's story about two genuinely good people who are playful and sweet to each other, helping one another heal, while also having incredibly hot sex. With standout portrayals of beautiful, generous friendships in addition to the love story, this is a book to be savored." - Rosie Danan, author of The Intimacy Experiment and The Roommate 538 Requires Boundless App. 588 Description based on print version record. 650 0 Man-woman relationships|vFiction. 650 0 Post-traumatic stress disorder|vFiction. 650 0 Anxiety|vFiction. 650 0 Homecoming|vFiction. 650 0 African American women|vFiction. 650 0 Bingo|vFiction. 650 0 Panic attacks|vFiction. 650 0 Grandmothers|vFiction. 651 0 South Carolina|vFiction. 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Romance fiction.|2lcgft 655 7 Novels.|2lcgft 776 08 |iElectronic reproduction of (manifestation):|aSlaughter, Jodie.|tBet on it|dNew York : St. Martin's Griffin, 2022 |z9781250821829|w(DLC) 2022002671|w(OCoLC)1263341644 856 40 |uhttps://naper.boundless.baker-taylor.com/ng/view/library /title/0028523656|zFound on Boundless
