Amelia has been in love with Teague since forever. As for Teague, Amelia is his best friends little sister and her friendship was a lifeline when he was deployed so he has never let himself even think about her as anything more than a friend. But when they start living together, he starts wanting more.
I think Wrong for him is the perfect book to conclude the series with. It was a very heartwarming read and I enjoyed how Amelia and Teagues relationship segued from friends to lovers. Humor, chemistry, tension and romance made it an enjoyable read.
This is Amelia and Teague's story, and is the third book in the Loves Lottery series. Amelia has loves her brother’s best friend while Teague only saw her as Alex’s younger sister.. The trope is definitely best friends sister and friends to lovers.
This started off very slowly for me and took me a while to get into the story. The dialogue and the banter between these two was fantastic, but the push/pull aspect of the romance went on for what felt a very long time.
Christi Barth’s third book, Wrong for Him, in the Love Lottery series is definitely my favorite as far as couples go…Teague and Amelia were the most endearing and heartwarming of the three pairs. Perhaps it’s Teague’s back story, or Amelia’s unfailing belief in him that captivated my heart.
As I’ve come to expect from this author, the humor was laugh out loud worthy due to the witty banter and repartee between the characters…the whip smart dialogue could turn on a dime and head in a different direction…taking your imagination along for a clever and entertaining ride. There was the perfect combination of humor, tension, angst, and of course romance to keep me riveted from start to finish.
The Civil War history that surrounds the Three Oaks Inn in the small town of Chestertown, Maryland adds another layer of interest to the story, as does the surprise that Teague and Amelia discover in the Inn. There were so many facets to the story and it’s characters that made it so easy to not want to put it down once I started reading it.

This is a satisfying conclusion to the Love Lottery series. This is Amelia and Teague's story and it's the classic best friend/little sister trope In this novel, Teague has a difficult past and a career in special forces that left him with nightmares. He thinks he's no good for Amelia, while Amelia's been secretly in love with him for years.
I love the characters in this series and how they've grown and developed with each book. The author has an engaging way of telling a story. While I loved reading Amelia and Teague's story, at times it felt as though the book lagged - the push/pull seemed to go on for too long. For this reason, I'm giving this one four stars.
If you enjoy the genre, you will want to put this one on your TBR list. While part of a series, this is a stand alone novel. The author is on my must read authors' list.
