The Bourbon Bet

A bookstore. A bet. A love that could cost them everything.

I need sixty days.

Thats how long I have to save my bookstore and my fathers home before all my dreams go into foreclosure. When a powerful man offers me a devils bargain, every instinct screams to walk, no run, away. But desperation makes cowards of us all. Make Sebastian fall for me, steal his business secrets at their derby party, and keep my store. Refuse, and lose everything.

The plan was simple. But I never bet on falling for him. Or how the truth would ruin me.

This isnt about love.

Its a bet, a way to finally cut my brother loose. Rosalia is the bait. Sweet. Sharp. Sent to play me. And I let her. Because I want to believe shes different. Im betting on it. And when she moans my name like its real, I almost believe her.

In bourbon country, family betrayals go down smoother than aged whiskey. With the

Derby clock ticking and their hearts tangled in lies and desire, when the truth finally spills, can love survive the burn?
