The Big Gamble
Theme: M/F
Blurb
Two years ago Brooke McCoy had it all. A successful writing career, a gorgeous fiancé and a beautiful New York penthouse apartment that overlooked Central Park. She was on top of the world. But that all came crashing down when she received a phone call that changed her life forever. After losing her fiancé Jake to an aneurysm, Brooke was still struggling with moving on. The overwhelming feeling of emptiness only growing bigger with her still living in the home she once shared with Jake. Ready to start afresh, Brooke decides to move to Seattle away from the only family she has left for a change of scenery, hoping this will be the change she needs to finally let go of her past and start living again. Brian Gamble is a cocky, womanizing cop from Seattle. After being burned by love once before, Brian now enjoys the sweeter things in life like blondes, redheads, and brunettes. Winning them over with his jaw droopingly good looks and charm, only to leave them in the wind the moment the condom hits the trash. But as much as he tries to deny it he wants more, and all the women in the world can’t fill the void that his ex left in his heart. But one fateful night Brooke and Brian’s worlds collide, sparking a hot game of cat and mouse leading them to question their theories on love. Can two people broken by love, find happiness again? And what happens when love becomes the ultimate gamble?

This book sort of fell into my lap.
I had never heard of the author or this book series before when I stared seeing fan teasers pop up on my Instagram feed. And they were hot. I mean really hot...
So, when there was a contest for a free copy of the book. I entered and somehow won a copy and I LOVED IT!
It's a story of second chances and new beginnings and is the start of what's sure be an awesome series.
Brooke is looking for a fresh start. Everything around her reminds her of a happier time so she decides to move to Seattle. Brian is done with love and relationships after the disaster that was his last one. He only needs and wants one thing from a woman to keep him satisfied.
An awkward first meeting between the new neighbors is way more than they expected.
You'll fall in love with these characters. They're sexy, funny, and hot - and I'm not only talking about Brian and Brooke. The supporting characters are set up well for their own upcoming novels and you'll be left wanting more.
This is definitely an author and series I plan to follow closely....
