What a beautiful end to a beautiful series. I have long awaited Chase and Bridget's story, and it exceeded my expectations tenfold. Betting man is impeccably well written, deals with emotional and physical trauma in a respectful and thoughtful way, and brings light to some of the horrors that domestic violence victims and their loved ones face. Chase is patient, warm, and kind. He is steadfast in his love for Bridget even when she believes she doesn't deserve that. And Bridget, with so much healing left to do, is strong, resilient, and incredible. Frequently I was in awe of the ironclad armor both characters had in their own ways. The dynamic between the two of them was so natural, so light, and so comfortable. The surrounding characters, the rest of our beloved Poker Club, all continue to bring light to the story, even after their own love stories are "over" proving once again that the Happily Ever After part is never really the end. This book was sexy, it was smart, it was gentle and it was everything I ever wanted.
