Book The Love Wager – Lynn Painter

Betting on You, by Lynn Painter, tells the story of Duffy Distefano, who likes three things: her dad, her cat, and the Minneapolis Coyotes. So, when she knocks over the team’s mascot at a game and becomes the internet’s villain, she is completely devastated. Determined to set the record straight, she agrees to an interview on a popular morning show—not imagining that the Coyotes' star forward would be right beside her. What follows is a live verbal sparring match that goes viral, a fake relationship that doesn’t feel fake at all, and the growing certainty that messing it up would be the biggest mistake of a lifetime.
