Rather dull and mundane storyline
One to watch for fans of the actors on show. It's very well acted by all involved. However the story of a marriage falling apart as the American dream turns out to be more of a nightmare just isn't that interesting. They want to break the normal perceived conventions of how a couple are supposed to live their lives. However reality breaks the idolised dream.
  
Georgia Thornton has hit a new low – contestant on a reality dating show. Her job is to figure out which of her bachelors are in it for love and which just want the prize money. However, the show’s first group date ends in a tragic accident. When another contestant dies, Georgia begins to question what she has signed up for. Meanwhile, her ex-fiancee has appeared on the show. Is he investigating? What is really happening on the show? Will Georgia figure it out and pick the right bachelor?

This book definitely plays up the reality show aspect of things, with that part of the plot often overriding the mystery. Only a few of the characters get much development as well. And yet, I really did enjoy the book. I always had a hard time putting it down, and the pages flew by all too quickly. I’ll definitely be back for the sequel.
