It was only supposed to be a bet. A few careless words, a challenge thrown across a table, and a girl Alexander barely knew became the center of a game he had no intention of taking seriously. For Alexander, it was supposed to be a distraction from everything he was dealing with, something to take his mind off his problems for a while. The rules were simple: three dates. Four weeks. What Alexander hadn't counted on was Daliah. She doesn't make things easy. She keeps people at a distance, questions every intention, and has no interest in becoming part of someone else's plans. But as the four weeks begin to unfold, the lines of the bet become harder to see. Conversations that were never meant to matter start to. Trust takes the place of suspicion. And somewhere between what Alexander agreed to do and what he actually begins to feel, the bet starts becoming something neither of them expected. Four weeks. Three dates. One bet Alexander thought he could control. He had no idea what he'd gotten himself into.
