Synopsis

When it comes to life's fun and games, always know: The rules. What's at stake. When to quit.

Wise words from . . . well . . . my fortune cookie. But wise words, nonetheless.

I just wish the Fortune Cookie People had considered how hard the whole "knowing when to quit" would be to carry out when a woman like me is gambling with her feelings. Heart-palpitating, vageen-tingling, butterflies-in-my-belly feelings for a noncommittal, hot-as-sin player by the name of Jude Winslow.

After a crazy night where we were both pretending to be someone else, I've found myself immersed in the fun of the fling. The thrill. The irresistible charm. The pleasure of being with a man like him.

Problem is, I'm positive he's the exact opposite of husband material, and that is a serious issue for someone who is fixated on finding her happily ever after.

I know the rules and I know the stakes, oh wise Fortune Cookie. Now I'd just like to know how close to self-destruction I have to get before I find the will to quit Jude Winslow. Goodness knows, when your heart is on the line, you can't ante up your bet with an IOU.

Contains mature themes.

80% of the book is the MCs hooking up and the hero leaving before the h wakes up, then he confronts his feelings after making the h feel like shit, and they get together. The end.

Sophie + Jude. We all remember Jude from previous books. (If you haven't read any Max Monroe books yet - don't worry, this is a standalone Rom-Com, but you should definitely read ALL THEIR BOOKS ASAP!) Jude is a club promoter and he lives a very happy serial hook-up single guy life in New York City. N......more

Goodreads review by Karen's Utterly Unashamed on July 16, 2021

This book is all about orgasms. New York and Vegas orgasms and maybe one or two a mile high in between. Jude and Sophie are a 10+ in the steam department. It all begins with the dedication. Yup you read that right. If you have never read Max Monroe dedications and author's notes you should. "To th......more

Goodreads review by Jenifer on July 19, 2021

I feel like I'm just broken at this point, but I just couldn't connect with the characters in the book. I do admit to shedding a few tears towards the end (pregnancy emotions are no joke people) but as a whole I just didn't see the hype of this book? All I kept hearing was how hilarious this was, an......more
