Description
Reality-TV love may look tempting, but real love could change everything in the debut novel from the Bachelorette star and author of Miss Me with That. Maya Johnson lives her life according to The Plan: to become the youngest-ever female director of her company, marry her college sweetheart, and build a fabulous life in Miami. Seeing as she's almost near checking every last one of those items off her list, she doesn't feel the need to go on the nationally beloved reality dating show Real Love. So when she's offered the chance, she turns it down and tells the producers that her best friend, Delilah, should take part instead. But as she watches Delilah become the lead, fall in love, and change her life, Maya begins to wonder if she's as happy as she thought--she doesn't have much in the way of a work-life balance, her relationship isn't quite where she thinks it should be, and very little in her life is sparking joy. When Maya's free-spirited whirlwind of a little sister, Ella, blows into town for a surprise visit, Maya finds herself newly intrigued by Ella's unrooted existence--and she's equally intrigued by Ella's gorgeous friend and fellow world traveler, Kai. At a crossroads with both her professional and personal happiness, Maya will have to decide which path to choose: The Plan she's worked so hard for, or something new entirely.
