Publisher Description
What’s the fun when you don’t bet to win?
Single mom Melanie Hayes should absolutely, completely, and totally not be attracted to her next door neighbor. Nick Campagna can be her friend, her secret crush, or just the arrogant —and unavoidably handsome—jerk next door, but nothing more. Because, even though it was a million years ago, he’s also her sister’s ex. And now, with Lakeside’s Battle of the Businesses in full swing, Nick’s also Melanie’s competition.
Their families have always been competitive, so it’s no surprise to anyone that Nick and Melanie are playing for more than just bragging rights. With a coveted piece of land on the line, Nick isn’t backing down. Maybe he can’t help noticing that the tomboy he knew as a kid has turned into a stunning redhead. Maybe he is attracted to Melanie. Ridiculously so. But as real as this feels, Nick knows this is one game he definitely can’t win.
They’ve known each other long enough that it’s definitely not love at first sight. But attraction can happen in an instant. And this is one wager where winning is nowhere near as fun as playing the game…

Not bad
No Betting on Forever was a cute romance between two 40-something people who grew up together and he’s her sister’s ex. It’s honestly not as taboo/weird as it sounds, considering it was two decades ago for a very short time. But it’s brought up a lot, not just by Melanie and Nick but by the population of their small town.
They were an interesting couple with good banter, but I never felt any scorching chemistry between them. The battle of the businesses was a unique twist but it overpowered their romance at times. It wasn’t a bad read but it also wasn’t a memorable one. It’s also my first by the author, but I’m going to check out her catalog and try another book soon.
