Thanks for the ARC!
This was a fun, light read. Who doesn't love an enemies to lovers story, right?
At first I didn't like Donny so much. I wasn't so sure if I would enjoy this book. But little by little things got more interesting. Can't say it's my favorite romance ever, but it's pretty good.

The Bet Between Us by Brandon Moore was a great read. I'm not going to lie I hated Donald Cerlino in the beginning but through out the book I grew to love him. Alaina Pizzo is an adorable realistic character you will root for. Great Read for enemy/lovers fans.

this book was exactly my cup of tea. I found it quite boring and I wanted to stop reading many times. I also hate the bet. I don’t like the way Donald treats women, and he doesn’t deserve Alaina

I want to thank Netgalley for providing me an Arc of this book in exchange for my honest review.

This book was awesome.
When I started it I’ll be honest I hated the main character!
However the more I read and got to know him the more I warmed towards him.
This book was an amazing coming of age read.
The relationship between Donald and his brother is beyond adorable and I couldn’t read enough about them.
Overall I loved this book the character development was awesome I honestly couldn’t put it down.
I gave it 4 stars.

This was a cute story about a high school senior, Donny, who has quite a reputation with his classmates as a player and is known as DJ which is short for Don Juan. He hangs with his two best friends, is a really good student, ex-football player and just out to have fun. He has been in love with a fellow classmate Alaina since he was in Kindergarten and after brief friendship early on in high school, she has stopped talking to him which has made him sad. They get paired as lab partners and she has to talk to him but it is obvious that she hates him for the most part. One of his friends bets him $200 that he can't get Alaina to like him again, be his girlfriend and sleep with him by Christmas. Donald doesn't want to take the bet but can't help himself. As school progresses, he and Alaina spend more time together and start to get closer. DJ even starts playing football again, inspired by Alaina and her confidence in him and her friendship. She seems to forgive him for his past transgressions and they become really good friends eventually moving towards romance. It is very sweet. The rest of the story is kind of predictable but it is a very sweet, nice happy ending. Interesting characters that seem a little more unique than the average YA romance but the plot is easy to predict. Cute, romantic read! DJ is a sweetheart. Thanks to NG for the ARC!!!
