A documentary film maker is forced to make a reality TV show. Connor decides to make a dating show utilizing a genetic matching technology. He notices rows of books on his ex-wifes shelves written by a romance author. She, Fizzy, would be a perfect lead.
It begins with some misunderstandings, then a deep friendship is formed. How can Fizzy focus on these 8 men, chosen as romance tropes, when she is falling for Connor, the producer?
I'm usually the type to read thrillers and mysteries, but this sucked me in. The characters and storyline were believable. The chemistry was perfect. I enjoyed every minute of this book.

Connor and Fizzy end up together. Of course, they do. However, the story of them falling in love while knowing their feelings are forbidden because it could harm the show makes it worthwhile. This isn't done in the typical forbidden love way. There are complications with Connor's career if the show isn't a success. If anyone were to find out about them, he may have to move away from his daughter, or his career could be over.manaledi's review against another edition

I liked these characters and their secondary characters and their love story. There was tension without trauma and the kids were such a nice touch. A little quibble in that it felt like the diversity was forced in all the additional men, but presumably that's how it would be on a real dating show too. Also I really feel like I read a very very similar plot once before, but that didn't take away from liking this love story.
