Sure Bet
(2024)(The first book in the Out of Left Field series)
A novel by Katherine Avery and K C Everly
Unbreakable rules are great... until you're forced to break them. Then the whole world goes topsy-turvy.
Brooke Elwood had just one unbreakable rule: she would never kiss Liam Porter.
Not at fifteen when a session of spin the bottle went awry and they ended up locked in a closet.
Not at twenty-five, after ten years of relentless teasing.
But when Liam's life falls apart, he moves into his sister's condo - which happens to be Brooke's condo, too. Forced to share a tiny apartment with the guy she's sworn to avoid, Brooke's rule is suddenly put to the test in more ways than she could have ever imagined.
Liam's always been a cocky flirt, but now that he's living in the same apartment with Brooke, he's making it his mission to prove that her rule isn't as unbreakable as she thinks it is, and life's becoming unbearable for Brooke.
After he bets that he can get her to cave and kiss him before her birthday, though, she's got a way out. If he loses, he's gone - for good. If he wins, though, he gets to stay.
Two weeks to resist Liam Porter? Pfft - talk about easy. Brooke's avoided his charm for years. But Liam's no longer the annoying boy next door - he's all grown up, and the games they play are far riskier than spin the bottle.
As the sparks between them catch fire, Brooke starts to wonder if winning the bet is worth losing her heart.
Let the games begin.
