This novel follows the journey of Felicity "Fizzy" Chen, a successful romance novelist who realizes she's been preaching about love without truly experiencing it herself. Enter Connor Prince, a single father and documentary filmmaker, who finds himself embarking on an unexpected adventure with Fizzy as part of a reality dating show.

One of the standout elements of this book is its unique premise—a romance novelist participating in a reality TV show about finding love. The juxtaposition of Fizzy's professional expertise in romance with her personal experiences adds depth and intrigue to the story. Plus, Fizzy is a fun, quirky character to read from. I like that she is blunt and to the point. I was particularly drawn to the dynamic between Fizzy and Connor, whose relationship evolves amidst the backdrop of the unconventional reality show.

What I loved:
1. Reality dating show premise
