Another triumph from Hayden. This one had two really loveable MC's. Gray was so much fun. I loved the dynamics of them, the sparks were flying with these two. Nice sexy scenes made it a spicy read. The reader is lulled into a happy place whilst these two get comfortable with each other and step their relationship up a notch. The niggling worry, was warranted and we have a episode of angst, where hearts are ripped apart and boy did we feel it. The reader knows the full story so we can see both sides but both men are utterly lost and hollow without one another. We feel for Avery because he felt betrayed and we feel for Gray because we know the bet is insignificant to his feelings. He also has the added pain of being betrayed by his friend; there is definitely a story there! A great addition to the series, I really loved this one.
