The Odds of Getting Even

di Amanda Sellet (Autore)

St Martin's Press, 2025

The last thing reluctant resort employee Jean Harrington expected to find on a middle-of-the-night towel run was a bashful scientist in desperate need of company . . . and clothes. Charmed by his awkwardness and endearing tangents about reptiles, she returns the next day to give the handsome mystery guest she knows only as “Charlie” lessons in poker. He’s reserved and she’s chaotic, but together, the two of them just click. It’s like a honeymoon without the hassle of a wedding, until Jean discovers there’s a lot more to Charlie’s story than shyness and snakes - and she isn’t the only person with a pressing interest in his whereabouts, not to mention his secretly scandalous dating history. When Charlie has the audacity to abandon her without a word, Jean has a score to settle. She’ll do whatever it takes to get him back - no, get back at him - even if it means chasing him across an ocean to brave the wild west of his remote hometown, and the famous family business he neglected to mention. With flames from their pasts raising the stakes, Jean is gambling she can get the upper hand before Charlie calls her bluff. The real trick will be remembering what they’re playing for, when the biggest risk is putting all their cards on the table.
