"[Jodie Slaughter] has been both an auto-buy and a cannot-miss author for me. Bet On It delivers on so much of what I've personally enjoyed from Slaughter in the past but also introduces new and compelling framing, as well as a story concept that manages to be equal parts sexy, swoony, emotional, and complex...Slaughter writes a love story that is as much about compassion and understanding between two people as it is romance and hot, hot attraction." - PASTE MAGAZINE, "The Best New Romance Books of July 2022"
