In a shortsighted decision, she follows her high school boyfriend to college, only to get cheated on and then dumped. And to add insult to injury, her overprotective family is suddenly clinging to her again, fighting to control every part of her life.
Bad luck follows her hasty decision and when her roommate steals her identity and leaves town, Ellie is left to clean up a gigantic mess.
Fin Hunter insists Ellie owes him seven thousand dollars from an online poker game and he won't stop until he collects it. Determined to keep her family out of her life, Ellie agrees to work for Fin in his illegal online poker operation. He's given her six weeks to pay off the debt.
Soon sparks are flying between them and the only thing keeping her from falling for him is the debt she still owes and the money she doesn't have.
At the end of those six weeks, Ellie will have to pay the mistaken debt or bet that her feelings for Fin will be worth more than the money.

Review
I don’t normally read much YA or NA, and college romances are something new to me – but I’m very glad I got a chance to read “Bet on Us” by Rachel Higginson for this blog tour. I loved it!
Most of all, I enjoyed reading about the heroine, Ellie. She was a refreshing change from all those either weak-willed or slow-brained heroines that abound these days and are only governed by their body and physical attraction. I loved it that she is intelligent and different from the others, sort of the bookish underdog that suddenly realizes she has a wilder side to her. Her friend Britte was perfect too, just the kind of friend I think she would and should have had in real life. And kudos to the author for writing such an interesting family background for Ellie. Her beefy brothers and overbearing mother are pieces that fit the puzzle very nicely and give the story depth. Like the main characters, the secondary cast was brilliantly fleshed-out and credible. It’s one of the reasons why I felt like watching a movie instead of merely reading a book.
And let’s not forget Fin, the absolutely adorable hero. Gorgeous, dark, dominant on the outside and caring on the inside, he’s every girl’s (and reader’s) dream and a perfect match for Ellie. While it seemed at the start that they couldn’t be more different, they were indeed meant for each other, and I love all the twists and turns that kept them from falling all over each other too soon.
If you like NA romances that have plenty of steamy scenes, great dialogues, likeable and authentic characters, and a tight plot filled with suspense, humor and emotions galore, then you’ll love “Bet on Us” as much as I did. I think I have to pick up more books by Rachel Higginson…
Rating: 5/5
