by Tawna Fenske

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5



[Content warning at end of review]


After dating for a short period of time, Kayla and Tony decide that they make better friends than lovers. And after a year of serious best friendning they decide to help each other out. Smoke jumper, Tony agrees to accompany Kayla as she tours the midwest for old forrest fire burn sights to photograph for a book and Kayla bets Tony that they can determine weather he is just a bad boyfriend or afford of commitment by catching up with his former loves along the way!


This totally sound like a recipe for disaster, but these two are so perfect together that he their road tripping and ex interviewing becomes an exercise in growth for the two of them!


At the beginning of this book, the hero, Tony seems so shallow and out just for a good time and a laugh. I really enjoyed seeing his layers be unraveled as he accepted some hard truths about him self and his motivation. Kayla also learns about herself and comes to some significant revelations as well. These two really grew on me as I read this book!



This road tripping, second chance/ friends to lovers story ending up having some real depth and happily surprised me! 



[Content warning - there is in depth talk about mental abuse and gaslighting to characters close to the main couple]



Just a Little Bet by Tawna Fenske is scheduled to release October 29th, 2020.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Entangled Publishing. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

For the sake of her family, she will do anything to protect them and that includes keeping secrets and resisting the Rangers charms!  This was fun story. I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me!  ...
