Read Betting Jessica Storyline:
(NOTE: This is an updated version, revised and re-released November 11, 2012)Hung over and tired, twenty-four year old Jessica finds she has made a crazy bet to get a date with her favorite celebrity, Ian Drake. Of course the bet would be unthinkable except for the small problem that she made it with her enemy, Erik. She decides to use the bet as a way to prove to herself and others that when she sets her mind to something she can truly accomplish it.Erik is astounded to realize that Jessica has taken the bet seriously but refuses to come clean on the reason she made it to begin with... as a result of his asking her out. He's just grateful she apparently doesn't remember that part of the conversation, and in fact wishes he could forget it as well. Only...somehow Jessica has started to get under his skin, and not in the annoying way she has in the past. While Jessica is doing everything she can to win the bet, Erik finds he is doing everything he can to spend more time with her. Jessica learns that Ian Drake has a vacation home somewhere in Lake Tahoe and decides to go there for a month over the summer to track him down. Her schemes lead her into many hilarious situations. And, although things don't go exactly as planned, Jessica learns a lot about motivation, determination and love.... Not to mention making bets.Review"Betting Jessica is a book that is a fun and light read. Wilsted certainly has a gift with the development of her characters - particularly for a new author - and she demonstrates the same skill in the settings of her story. The feel of the writing reminded me of Sophie Kinsela - and had much of the same humorous situations, in a very real way." - The Book Worm's Library"Deanne Wilsted's newest book, Betting Jessica, is a fun, fast read, full of love and laughs. After a night of drinking, Jessica finds herself in a bet with a guy she doesn't particularly like named Erik. The bet: Can she get a date with a certain celebrity? It's a nearly impossible task, but Jessica takes it on, not realizing the motive behind Erik's bet. I'm betting Wilsted's got a hit on her hands with Betting Jessica." - Penny Warner, Author of HOW TO PARTY WITH A KILLER VAMPIRE.From the AuthorEver have one of those days where the only option is a crazy night out with your friends? I certainly have... and in Betting Jessica I let my imagination ask the question, 'what if'? What if... a guy you thought hated you actually didn't? What if.... your ego (and too many drinks) pushed you into making an insane bet? What if.... there was nothing to lose by not going for it? This was the first novel I had written and my husband will tell you I laughed my way through practically every sentance. And, it made me ask the question, what if..... I wrote more novels? Years later, thanks to Betting Jessica, the answer is not just this book, but two more being prepared for sale and many more being creatively worked on. Thanks for allowing me to share my story, Betting Jessica, with you. I hope you love reading it as much as I loved writing it.Pages of Betting Jessica :
