Try Me: Special Edition

By Adriana Locke

"Try me."

That's what Drake Bennett said when I declared on my live podcast that no man could make me fall in love. The former pro football star turned sportscaster didn't just laugh-he challenged my entire brand.

Gianna Knows Things is built on the idea that love is a choice. Drake says it's a feeling-a magical, uncontrollable, world-shifting experience.

I call BS. He says I'm scared.

The audacity.

So, we make a bet. Six weeks of dating ... in front of millions of listeners. If I don't fall for him, I win. If I do ... don't worry. Not going to happen.

I expected spicy nights and viral ratings. What I didn't expect was thoughtful surprises, spontaneous affection, and moments that make my heart do strange things.

Drake isn't who I thought he was, and I can't tell what scares me more: that he's been playing me all along or that I'm wrong about love. Either way, someone's about to get hurt-and I hope it's not me.
