I received this galley in exchange for an honest review.

Two secrets. One bet. Who will break first?

Taylor Caldwell can't decide if she wants to kiss her new college roommate or punch him.

On the one hand, Hunter Zaccadelli is a handsome blue-eyed bundle of charm. On the other, he's a tattooed, guitar-playing bad boy. Maybe that's why Taylor's afraid of falling in love with him, or anyone else. She doesn't want to get burned, so she needs him gone before it's too late.

Hunter himself has been burned before, but Taylor's sexy laugh and refusal to let him get away with anything make her irresistible. Determined not to be kicked out of her life without a fight, Hunter proposes a bet: if she can convince him she either truly loves or hates him, he'll leave the apartment; and leave her alone.

But when the man behind Taylor's fear of giving up her heart resurfaces, she has to decide: trust Hunter with her greatest secret, or do everything in her power to win that bet and drive him away forever.

I’ve decided to stop reading New Adult books because there is just too many of them, and they all sound the same. But there are a select few that I am/was looking forward to, and My Favorite Mistake is one of them! I am so glad that I decided to read it. It definitely became a favorite of mine!

The story starts with Taylor and her two friends waiting for their fourth roommate at college. Expecting a girl, Taylor is very surprised, and angry to see tattoo bad boy Hunter. Right off the bat, Taylor is not welcoming of him, and wants him gone.

Both Taylor and Hunter are holding in secrets about their past, and the author made a much bigger deal about Taylors. But I felt that her secret wasn’t as bad as Hunters. What Taylor went through and how she deals with it now, is nothing compared to what Hunter experienced as a child. He has a much bigger reason to be an emotional wreck as an adult, but he handles his life and what happened much better then Taylor does. I feel she is even being a little bit dramatic. That is just my opinion, please don’t hate me!

I have read other books by Chelsea M. Cameron, and she is definitely a great writer! I have enjoyed every book I have read from her, and My Favorite Mistake is my favorite so far! I can’t wait to read what she writes next!
