Review: The Valentine Wager (The Lange Brothers #1) by Nan Reinhardt

 

 

He’s a notorious flirt, so she lays down a challenge she’s sure she’ll win.

When playboy police lieutenant Ryker Lange stops Kitt Boynton for driving on the wrong side of the road, his attraction to the feisty Irish lass is immediate. Yet, despite the sizzling chemistry between them, Kitt quickly turns him down.

Kitt has moved to River’s Edge for a fresh start and is ready to focus on her new marketing job at her cousins’ winery. She’s done with players, and vows she won’t let the local sexy cop distract her, but Kitt, a flirt herself, is definitely tempted. To keep her sanity as she prepares for several Valentine-themed winery events, she and Ryker make a bet: for the next three weeks, neither of them can flirt with the other.

The game starts out lighthearted, but when the town takes sides, Ryker and Kitt must choose between winning a wager or finding lasting love. 

 

 

 

My Review:

A bet that leads to romance.

When Kitt Boynton left Ireland to stay with her cousins in River’s Edge, Indiana, and help out at their winery, she was nursing a broken heart.  She was done with men.  But when Kitt met Lieutenant Ryker Lange, in one of the sweetest meet-cutes I have read in a long time, she couldn’t get him out of her mind.  Rye fell in love at first sight.   With the heated chemistry between Kitt and Rye, it seems most of the town is betting on who will make the first move when they finally give in to the temptation. 

This is the first book in a new series, that is a spin-off of one of my favorite series, Four Irish Brothers Winery.  Along with meeting the new characters, I was excited to catch up with characters that I already came to love.  I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.  The Lange brothers seem to be gearing up to be some characters I won’t be able to get enough of.
