GRR Reviews Romancing Miss Right (Reality Romance by Lizzie Shane

Romancing Miss Right puts you in the middle of a reality dating show "Romancing Miss Right", where a romance writer and the next bachelorette, under strict control of the executive co-producer, is about to get wooed by more than enough drool-worthy men, and if you like those shows and the machinations you should love this book.

To recap: Marcy Henrickson is the star of the new reality dating show Romancing Miss Right... and a romance writer. She needs the exposure, and she knew finding her soul mate from a bunch of hungry attention seekers willing to be on TV for national humiliation is simply not going to happen. As the guys are all going to be gorgeous and flirty, why not just enjoy the attention? She did not count on Craig Corrow, a fellow attention seeker. Craig was San Diego's "shock jock" radio host who wanted a bigger stage and saw the show the perfect opportunity to propel himself into the national spotlight. He wanted to be charming enough... and just dastardly enough to be the guy everybody hated... but remembered. He did not count on Marcy being a real woman, not a primpy princess... or the executive producer, who won't stand for his... meddling. When it came down to choosing money or love, which way will this "bad boy" go?

While there were several romance novels with reality TV as background, they usually involve something like Newlywed Game where the couple had to fake it through the show but developed real love instead. This is more like the reluctant admission that perhaps the unlikely couple can work. I wasn't a fan of the TV genre, but I like this novel
