About this listen
If you told me I'd be on a reality dating show with a man I can't stand while the guy I haven't been able to forget films it all, I'd tell you to kick rocks.
Alas, here I am, pretending to fall in love with a man who'd marry himself if he could all while my TV producer best friend has front seats to it all. It'd be a lot easier if the self-centered bachelor wasn't hot as hell and charming beyond reason when the cameras are rolling. Or if I didn't get heart palpitations every time my best friend looked at me.
Hot, emotionally stunted men and old crushes aside, I've sworn off dating. I know people say that and then they're with someone new next week, but I mean it. Since being betrayed, I'm doing this for me, myself, and I. While the other women compete for love, I'm here to collect a check and gain enough clout to help kick off my career as a makeup artist. If it's between success or moving back in with my nagging mother, I'm not letting men knock me off my game.

Story
August Hanson was the silent type, the kind who spoke through his actions and not his words. He possessed enough power to make me feel safe and secure. I was ready to open up and share the parts of myself I’d never shared with another, and then I got hit with a truth that changed everything. There was a slight chance he’d still want me, only he had to accept our baby, too.

I was left a swanky NYC apartment, courtesy of a will I didn't know I was in—but it comes with a caveat. I have to marry an incredibly rude—and fine—stranger. My first reaction is a clear, "I don't." My finances don't let me get that far. And Josh needs this fake marriage to get custody of his late friend's son. Is it enough to make me put up with the most abrasive but handsome white boy I've ever met?

Hiking, cold weather, and cabins in the woods are not my thing. But when my two best friends beg me to join them for a trip to the mountains, I cave. "It'll be fun," they said. "You need to get out more," they said. Everything was fine until I realized it's all a setup. A weekend-long blind date orchestrated with the help of their boyfriends. To say I'm annoyed is an understatement. But then he shows up, looking like a lot more than a tall glass of milk.

Welcome to Honey Creek, Illinois, where life was as sweet as the town's name suggested. That was until Mr. Fine Dining himself, Alex Ramírez, rolled into town with a permanent scowl. Even worse, he decided to park his snooty five-star restaurant across from my cozy dog daycare. He was tall, dark, and about as warm as a frozen entrée. After one too many unpleasant interactions, I was determined to stay out of his way and to keep him out of mine. But fate had a quirky sense of humor.

I can’t believe that I pulled my boss’ name for our company’s annual Secret Santa tradition.... As the devil incarnate, this infuriating, cocky bastard never gives us the holidays off, and he honestly expects us to be grateful for his generous alternative: The Office Party. It’s a mandatory, all-expenses paid trip for two weeks at a surprise luxury resort - where we still have to work 12 to 15 hours a day.

There’s a bit of a love triangle, but the slow-burn tension between Indigo and River will make you ache in the best way, while her dynamic with Kade adds a splash of fun, flirty unpredictability. I loved the behind-the-scenes look at reality TV, the friendships between the contestants, and the thoughtful touches of mental health and LGBTQ+ representation.
The ending had a twist that didn’t totally shock me, but it still worked. Overall, it was the perfect palate cleanser when you need something light, a little mushy-gushy, and delightfully drama-filled—like the book version of a reality TV binge.
Spice Level: 2.5/5 (think: flirty tension, a few steamy moments, but nothing over the top)
Overall Rating: 3.5/5 – A sweet, drama-packed, and easy-to-enjoy read.
