This is about one of the dumbest ideas for a novel I ever heard of: "Melissa is unexpectedly chosen to compete on a popular couples’ reality TV show — but she’s single!" So tell 'em that, and you're done. But no, Melissa isn't that kind of person - i.e. honest, that is. She outright lies and cheats: "Can she and drop-dead gorgeous Ronan fake an engagement and win the top prize?" Fuck this lying shit. Barf.

Love Me Like You Mean It by Laura Burton
That title does not go with this story in which "Emma tells a white lie" No, it's a lie. There's no such thing as a white lie, especially not when the intention is purposeful deception for selfish gain. Emma outright lies "while trying on wedding gowns - and when her life spirals out of control, she ropes her best friend, Aidan, into posing as her fiancé." What a piece of work Emma is. I hope Aidan ditches her. OTOH, he's as bad as she is, knowing she's a liar and supporting her in perpetrating a falsehood instead of doing what a true friend would do - talking her out of it. This is yet another dumbass story where the dumbass woman doesn't grasp that her dumbass BFF is the one for her. So Emma isn't only a liar, she's a moron. There's a better story to be told here, but apparently the author was too wedded to this dumb one.
