RUNAWAY GROOM
I Do, I Don't - Book 2

Loveswept
For one charming playboy, getting cast
on a Bachelor-esque reality TV show is the shock of a lifetime—until he finds
love where he least expects it.
Gage
Barrett’s reputation as a ladies’ man has been greatly exaggerated, but none of
that matters after a drunken bet lands him on Jilted, a reality TV show that
matches runaway grooms with wannabe brides. Now he’s stuck at a Hawaiian resort
with nineteen women competing to drag him back to the altar—and one contestant
who’s even more miserable than he is. Gage has no idea how feisty, independent
Ellie Wright wound up in the cast, but it’s obvious she hates his guts. And if
there’s one thing Gage likes, it’s a challenge. . . .
Ellie can’t
believe she let her best friend talk her into exchanging her dignity for a
glorified bikini contest. Still, she could use the exposure—her business is
struggling—and she’ll probably be one of the first to get eliminated anyway.
But Gage isn’t the shallow jerk Ellie anticipated—and he’s in no rush to send
her home. As stolen kisses turn into secret trysts, she finds herself losing
track of what’s real and what’s for the camera. With the wedding finale
looming, this runaway groom is tempting Ellie to start believing in storybook
endings.

REVIEW
I really loved everything about this book. The story is so engaging and was an easy read. The characters were complex enough to be engaging and entertaining and still be real. There was just enough heat to make the book sexy but not have the book be only about the attraction. My favorite part was Ellie though. She is a spunky fun woman who is nothing like someone you'd normally see in a reality show but I think everyone would love to watch. She is also the perfect match for Gage. I would recommend this to anyone who loves romantic comedies.
