Synopsis

Georgia Rose is not going on the hit reality dating show Love Shack to find love. She’s there to write a killer exposé on the producers, which will guarantee the journalism job of her dreams. But when Georgia’s unforgettable one-night stand from the year before, country singer Rhett Auburn, steps into the Malibu mansion as the season’s new host, all of her carefully crafted plans unravel.

Caught up in the drama of backstabbing contestants, producer blackmail, and death-defying dates, Georgia must keep her identity―and history with Rhett―a secret. Despite the lies between them, it isn’t long before Georgia and Rhett’s heated behind-the-scenes moments start to feel more genuine than the romance Georgia’s faking for the cameras. But with her assignment unfinished and the executive producer on her tail, a second chance with Rhett could be her riskiest move of all.

Contestant Introduction—Video Transcript [Unedited]

Georgia, 27, Music Journalist, Los Angeles, CA

Filming location: Santa Monica Beach

[GEORGIA stands center, wearing a tank top and jeans, her long hair loose around her shoulders. The Santa Monica pier Ferris wheel rises behind her. As a couple passes through the frame, she smiles awkwardly. Then a cat is thrust into her arms by someone off camera.]

GEORGIA: This isn’t my cat.

SERENA (off camera): G, we’re rolling.

GEORGIA: I know, but— Ow! It scratched me! Where the hell did you find this thing? Why can’t I film with Presley?

SERENA (off camera): Because Presley looks like he’s already in the freezer. Just say your line.

GEORGIA (wrestling with cat): I’m trying, but this thing keeps scratching me. I’m going to get a disease. Who’s a good kitty? I think he’s scared of the ocean.

SERENA (off camera): Georgia—

GEORGIA: Okay, fine. Here goes [pauses, smiles widely]. Hi, my name’s Georgia Rose, and I’m ready to fall in love with Roland Manicotti!

SERENA (off camera): [groans] Marchetti. His name is Roland Marchetti.

GEORGIA: Shit. Right.

SERENA (off camera): How are you planning to seduce America’s Most Eligible Bachelor if you don’t even know his name? And can you smile more?

GEORGIA: I didn’t think seducing him was a requirement . . .

SERENA (off camera): How else are you planning to get the intel we need?

GEORGIA: I might not even get cast.

SERENA (off camera): If you keep comparing your future husband to stuffed pasta, I’d agree.

GEORGIA: [pinches her nose and adjusts the cat in her arms] Let me go again. Hi, my name’s Georgia Rose and I’m ready to fall in love with Roland Marchetti!

SERENA (off camera): Where do you live, Georgia?

GEORGIA: I live in Los Angeles with my cat . . . Presley, who’s a hell of a lot cuter than this little monster!

SERENA (off camera): I’ll cut that out. And if you’re cast, can you tell me what you’re the most excited for?

GEORGIA: [smiles broadly] I feel like that should be obvious! I’m most excited to meet the love of my life.

Why we chose it...


This book felt like watching our favorite reality TV series—compulsively readable, indulgently gossipy, and certifiably binge-worthy.


The chemistry between the undercover journalist and country music star sizzles off the pages and had us rooting for their second-chance romance.


The found-family friendships between contestants felt like refreshing reminders that connections can exist where we least expect them.
