    The story's about Wonder Woman making a bet with Batman that leads to her and Superman having to live together without using their powers in the suburbs of Gotham. I think the humor was well done and actually had me laughing at times which doesn't happen with too many stories. Despite happening a little too quickly (time-wise, not story-wise), I think the romance was also done pretty well especially when compared to any other SM/WW stories I've seen and plenty of stories in general. Just a warning, don't read expecting a ton of action. There's definitely some there, but the story is more about the characters and their interaction.

    I debated between a 4 and 5, but by the end I was satisfied and happy I spent the time reading this long story so I give it a 5/5.

    It's a nice story if your in to this pairing, personally though I think it's the weakest of the Superman/Wonder Woman stories this author's done.

    4/5

    As someone who doesn't particularly like the pairing, I don't think this should be in the library. Its not bad, but it couldn't hold me beyond a couple chapters.

    I remember reading this story a while back. IIRC the most amusing part was the Mary Marvel subplot.
