Bet In The Dark By:Rachel Higginson

(Nicole) I first started reading this book because I got it for free. Although before I even started reading this book I was a little skeptic because I have read a lot of free books and most of them were not worth reading let alone finishing and that's how I thought this reading would be. But it is nice to say that I was way off with this book. The book started off kind of slow but soon became a book that I just could not put down.  

In Bet in the Dark Ellie Harris wanted a life away from her overbearing parents and older brothers. She just broke up with her high school boyfriend who cheated on her and who Ellie followed to college. Ellie's luck gets even worse when her roommate steal her identity, sells her furniture, and leaves town with no warning and two months worth of back rent. Then Ellie meets Fin who insists that she owes him seven thousand dollars from an online poker game. Fin gives her six weeks to pay up, Ellie agrees to work for Fin in order to pay him back for money she doesn't have and a debt that isn't even hers. Soon Ellie develops feelings for Fin and will either have to pay the debt which isn't hers or take the chance that her feelings are worth money than the money owed.
