BLURB:
Monica McKellar,
associate producer of Finding Mr. Right, is desperate. One of the show’s
bachelors has bailed one week before shooting starts. She not only needs a
replacement ASAP, he has to get the temperamental bachelorette’s stamp of
approval.
Fortunately there’s a hot
guy right under her nose who’s a perfect fit. Unfortunately, he pushes all her
hot buttons. Until the show’s over, her hands—and every other part of her
body—are tied.
When Paul DeWitt signed
on to write for the reality show, “Bachelor #10” wasn’t supposed to be in his
job description. He fully expects to be cut early on, which will free him to
focus on the real object of his attraction. Monica.
Instead, he’s a finalist,
and they’re all packed in an SUV climbing the Continental Divide, headed for
Salt Box, Colorado .
Where stampeding horses, vindictive tabloid editors, and one capricious
bachelorette’s waffling over suitors may conspire to end Paul and Monica’s
romance before it even starts.

My Review:
It was really fun to read this story set behind the scenes of a reality TV show.
Monica works for the show Finding Mr Right: it must finally find the perfect guy for Ronnie Valero. Unfortunately one of the ten competitors escapes just before starting the show, taking away even the shirts of the scene. They must quickly find a new candidate. Paul is a writer, writes the stunts for TV shows. He must deal with the screenplay for Finding Mr. Right and it happens just as they are desperately looking for the tenth competitor. Paul is perfect to join the cast of bachelors. The problem comes when he realizes is more attracted to Monica that Ronnie: the risk is high, they may lose both their jobs .....
The protagonists are lovely, the competitors of the reality, and especially Ronnie, much less. Ronnie is capricious and spoiled, prey to many hysterical crisis. Monica is really good at her job: is able to resist the pressure of her work and to manage perfectly the vagaries of her star and contingencies of the entertainment world. Paul is charming and sexy, with Monica form a couple hilarious and hot.
A great start to this new series, I hope to read soon the second book.
It 's a romance sexy, fun, with a style simple and fluent, a fast pace and a cast of interesting characters. It's ideal as beach reading and I recommend it to anyone who wants to read a novel contemporary different as usual.

EXCERPT:
She had no idea
what to say after an experience like that. Was it good for you suddenly seemed
like a supremely dumb question.
Paul’s lips
whispered across her forehead. “Don’t go all silent on me, Monica. I need to
know what you’re thinking here.”
She blew out a
quick breath. “Um…whoa?”
He chuckled
against her hair. “Okay, that pretty much sums it up I guess.” He leaned back
against the side of the couch, shifting his weight, pulling her up against his
body again. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to squash you.”
“You didn’t.” She
ran her fingertips along his cheek, staring at his face in the shadows, the
angles and hollows made stark in the dim light.
“Talk to me,” he
said softly.
“I don’t…” She
shook her head. “What do you want me to say?”
“How you feel,
what you think.”
She narrowed her
eyes. “Are you usually this talkative after sex?”
He frowned
slightly, his brows drawing together. “Not that I recall, no. I just…I like to
hear your voice.” He brought her hand to his mouth, pressing his lips against
her fingers. “Particularly now. I can’t really see you here, so I need to hear
you.”
Her lips curved
into a smile, almost against her will. “I feel lovely, considering that I
should be freezing and squashed and I’m not. And I think that was insane.”
His brows came
together. “Insane good or insane crazy?”
The smile
widened. “Both.”
He laughed
softly. “But memorable, right?”
“Very memorable.
And very insane.”
