Bet Me

by Jennifer Crusie

Min Dobbs knows that happily-ever-after is a fairy tale, especially with a man who asked her to dinner to win a bet. Cal Morrisey knows commitment is impossible, especially with a woman as cranky as Min Dobbs. When they say good-bye at the end of their evening, they cut their losses and agree never to see each other again. But Fate has other plans, and it?s not long before Min and Cal are dealing with a jealous ex-boyfriend, Krispy Kremes, a determined psychologist, chaos theory, a mutant cat, Chicken Marsala, and more risky propositions than either of them ever dreamed of including the biggest gamble of all - real love.

I’m glad this wasn’t the first Crusie I read. It’s a lot of fun, but it wouldn’t compel me to read everything she’s written the way Faking It did. The characters are still great, and the dialogue is still funny, but there’s no con artists or hitmen or even any bad sex. I like her “bent” novels best.
