There's only one rule - Don't commit a dating sin.

Bexley

Seven Dates.
Seven chances to win my heart.
It’s not hard –
Don’t put ketchup on your eggs.
Don’t wear tasseled loafers.
For the love of all that’s Holy, don’t ogle the waitress.
See? Simple…
Yet no one can get it right.

Tristan

Dating Roulette.
It’s Bexley’s game.
Correction - it’s her life.
A constant rotation of dates.
You might get one; you might get seven.
No one has ever gotten to eight.
There’s only one rule –
Don’t commit a dating sin.
I’ve watched for years and bided my time.
Now, it’s my turn to play.
And I play to win.

Dating Roulette
D Kelly
Bexley and Tristan best friends since school. Tristan watched his bestie Bex play what he termed “Dating Roulette” all through college and further. When she admits she only wants to date her future husband he needs to change the status quo, he needs to convince her that she needs to break her 7 date rule, for him.
“Once we’re in the car and on our way home, I’m overcome with the sense that after tonight nothing is ever going to be the same between us again.
I just wish I could tell if that was a good thing or a bad thing. “
I could not put this book down! I stayed up way late and picked it up first thing in the morning. I read it in 24 hours despite wanting to savour it. I want more Bex and Tris goodness!
This novel is a stand-alone with hea, rock solid characters and a story that is genuine. D. Kelly never disappoints, her characters unfold in front of you through their pain, insecurities and shining love for each other. This is a true love story.
I received an arc of this book.

Dating Roulette is a friends to lovers romance that has a interesting concept to finding the one.

Tristian and Bexley have been friends since high school, Tristian has watched Bexley go through date after date listening to all the reasons why the latest guy wasn’t the perfect one for her. When Tristian decides to throw his hat in the ring, he knows he is in with a chance because he has a long list of what not to do. Bexley gives him 7 dates to prove himself, can they make it to date 8 or will they crash and burn?

I personally enjoyed this story; Kelly is a new to me author and I look forward to more from her in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favourite best friends to lovers romances ever
Reviewed in Australia on 9 July 2019
I've read a lot of best friends to lovers romances because it's my favourite trope, and this one? Is one of the best. Bexley and Tristan have been best friends for ten years and roommates for five. Bexley has what Tristan fondly refers to as the dating roulette; no man ever makes it past seven dates. But when Tristan realises he wants to be the first man to make it to the eighth, he pulls out all the stops. When a misunderstanding between them threatens to derail the romance before it ever really gets started, neither of them are willing to give up without a fight.

There were so many things I loved about this book. Their friendship. The way they knew all of each other's quirks and habits. The affection between them before they realised how they felt about each other. Tristan taking the relationship seriously, wanting to show Bexley he meant it. Bexley's journal writing habit. Bexley taking the lead sexually. This book is a great read, and you're seriously missing out if you don't pick it up.

D Kelly has a gift. Her books bring you in and you do not want to put the books down till you know how it ends. She writes in a way that isn't predictable in the best possible way. She has a true gift. This book will make believe in all good things yet you can cry and laugh at loud. She also incorporates some elements from her other books but in a way that relates too the book she is reading. You're curious enough to read the books but you don't get lost if you haven't making this book a standalone. I highly recommend this book to anyone over 18. She has strong characters that make you know it's ok to explore sexuality but not in a that you cringe. Once again this writer has extremely n e talent that shines through. I can not wait for her next masterpiece

My Rating System
5 stars--WOW
4 stars--would read again
3 stars--was good, won't read again
2 stars--read it, but didn't enjoy it
1 star--didn't finish, it was so awful

Do I need to read books before this one: no
Cliffhanger: no

The story starts ten years ago, when Bexley breaks up with Adam and becomes friends with his friend, Tristan, on the day Tristan desperately needs someone to care. They become best friends but can never date because she dated Adam. Six years later, they both graduate from college and move in together. Now, Bexley still hasn't found a man worthy of seven dates. She goes on a date with Bradley, comes home tipsy. Tristan has ordered a pizza, the delivery girl is a previous one-night stand, and is giving him flack. Bexley kisses him and tells the girl to get lost. Bexley won't date Bradley again because he wore striped socks and loafers with tassels. Tristan makes Bexley promise to give the next guy all seven dates. The next night he and Adam meet Bexley and Rita for drinks, Adam takes Rita home, and Tristan asks to date Bexley. He's bought her a journal so she can write all the things he does wrong each date, but the rule is, for his every strike, she has to write five things he did well.

This amazing friends-to-lovers romance made me laugh and cry. Their journal entries reveal that they risk everything by dating, and each realizes they've been in love with the other and didn't know it. They encounter snags, like any good book. The big conflict at the 80% mark is rewound so we get it from both perspectives, which is unique, and makes the resolution sweeter. While the journal entries could be seen as sappy, I think they're what people would write when they need to explore their emotions, to reveal their feelings without actually revealing them.

I recommend this book to anyone who likes romance with sexy times (so at least 18). I definitely recommend it to readers who have been part of a couple for a long time and want ideas for reawakening the romance.

FAVORITE QUOTE(S)
[What are you looking for?] “The one. I can’t explain it, but I’ll know him, and it won’t take more than seven dates to find him. He’ll be the one who makes me feel butterflies, he’ll be the reason I smile, and man, Tris, he’ll make me laugh like no one else can. At night, he’ll wrap me in his arms and tell me how much I mean to him, and he’ll make love to me and have sex me in equal measure. I know it sounds stupid to you, but we give away so many firsts to random people. I want the rest of *my* firsts to be with *him*. I want the man I’ll eventually marry to be the only one I ever love. The only one I ever make love to, say I do to, and build a life with.”

I wish there was a way to capture his smile and market it as an antidepressant.

Bexley gifts me one of her sweetest smiles.

POSSIBLE TRIGGERS (spoilers)
Sex: multiple scenes, oral, one spanking
Language: 87 F words, 24 Lord's name in vain, 22 S words
Violence: suicide considered

CRITIQUE (spoilers)
What happened with Bradley? He said he wanted Bexley for a friend, and then he disappears from the story.

What kind of friend puts in double the alcohol without telling her?

This was a good story of friends to lovers with an interesting dating twist. Tristan and Bexley are very likeable characters and what I especially liked was that Bex was not whiny and irritating! So many seem to be written like that these days. Kudos to the author for that.

Really enjoyed this book and recommend it to all.

WOW!! What a mindblowingly beautiful, heartwarming story!
Tristan and Bexley will touch your heart in the most immense way. The beautiful friendship they have and the connection they feel will tug at your emotions bigtime! It certainly did for me!
This book is profoundly wonderful. I felt so much thoroughout reading it and I came out of it feeling like I didn't know what to do next.
I felt immersed into the storyline, so much so that the characters felt like real friends.
How the author wrote something so truly wonderful is a real credit to her and her talent.
All I have left to say this is one of the BEST books of 2019!! Just read it for yourself or you are missing out on a story so extraordinary you will want to live in it!!
