A reality TV romance gone completely off-script…

Ariana is having one of those years. Dumped by her boyfriend, invisible at her marketing job, and stuck in the shadow of her famous TV anchor mum, the last thing she wants is more public attention.

So when someone suggests she audition for a wildly popular reality dating show, her first instinct is to laugh, cry, or possibly both. But then her boss hints that a stint on national TV could finally land her the promotion she deserves. With nothing left to lose and zero expectations, Ariana signs on—determined to keep her heart and dignity intact.

Cue chaos.

What she didn’t plan on was Harry—the charming, too-good-to-be-true fellow contestant who sees right through her. Sparks fly fast, but the show’s producers have other ideas, and Ariana finds herself cast as the season’s villain.

With the public furious, Ariana must decide: hide out again—or rewrite her own story, live and unfiltered. And just when she thinks the worst has already happened, the real plot twist drops.
