Valeria Lahey has spent years perfecting the art of holding a grudge-especially when it comes to Noah Andre.
Ever since a disastrous rivalry in high school, the two have been locked in a never-ending battle of sarcasm, stubbornness, and mutual annoyance. They avoid each other whenever possible, and when they can't, they argue. Everyone knows they can't stand each other.
Including Noah.
So when Noah's best friend, Blake Manning, makes a ridiculous bet that Noah couldn't get Valeria to fall in love with him if he tried, Noah accepts without thinking twice.
It should be easy.
All he has to do is be nice to her for a few weeks, prove Blake wrong, and collect his winnings.
The problem?
Valeria isn't the same girl Noah remembers.
And the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to remember this was supposed to be a game.
With Kelsey Erickson warning Valeria not to trust him, Peyton Andre convinced the entire plan will end in disaster, and Valeria's sisters, Lyla and Aaliyah, waiting for Noah to break her heart, nobody believes this story could possibly have a happy ending.
Not even Noah and Valeria.
But when the line between pretending and reality starts to disappear, Noah is forced to ask himself one terrifying question:
What happens when winning the bet means losing the girl?
Losing the Bet is a swoony enemies-to-lovers romance about unexpected second chances, impossible odds, and discovering that sometimes the person you're supposed to hate is the one you can't imagine living without.
