The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . RUNAWAY GROOM (I Do, I Don’t, #2) . . . Well why not have a realty show where 2 of the contestants don’t want anything to do with being on television. Well, why not just find yourself laughing outloud in the wrong places at the wrong times. This was so much fun. I enjoyed Ready to Run book one of the series. I found that I loved book two even more. This was just so much fun. It took you to a reality show that just did not have all participants eager and willing.

Fun, flirty, and very, very entertaining. Reality television on its own is just a big fat joke. Looking in to others lives for entertainment. This was just done better. I rather read the book than watch it all unfold on television where you can just flat out see things are scripted. Gage on a bet does the undesired activity of participating in a TV Reality show, in Hawaii. Ellie is there for a friend and business and she has high expectations that she will be heading home fairly quickly. Not realizing that she presents the biggest challenge yet to this man that will not allow a woman to best him.

Ellie and Gage back and forth provides the viewers and other contestants with much to watch. The banter and chemistry between the two was good. The sexy, flirty charm was just what got the ball rolling for the two.

As what I expect from one of LL’s books, this was fun filled, well written, great characters, banter and more that just pulled you in and invited you to stay for the whole show. This was just what I needed to top of a good week and enjoy the winter weather.

No complaints on this one, except it could have more to follow it.

I Do, I Don’t series:

Ready to Run – I Do, I Don’t, #1

Runaway Groom – I Do, I Don’t, #2

Blurb
For one charming playboy, getting cast on a Bachelor-esque reality TV show is the shock of a lifetime—until he finds love where he least expects it.

Gage Barrett’s reputation as a ladies’ man has been greatly exaggerated, but none of that matters after a drunken bet lands him on Jilted, a reality TV show that matches runaway grooms with wannabe brides. Now he’s stuck at a Hawaiian resort with nineteen women competing to drag him back to the altar—and one contestant who’s even more miserable than he is. Gage has no idea how feisty, independent Ellie Wright wound up in the cast, but it’s obvious she hates his guts. And if there’s one thing Gage likes, it’s a challenge. . . .

Ellie can’t believe she let her best friend talk her into exchanging her dignity for a glorified bikini contest. Still, she could use the exposure—her business is struggling—and she’ll probably be one of the first to get eliminated anyway. But Gage isn’t the shallow jerk Ellie anticipated—and he’s in no rush to send her home. As stolen kisses turn into secret trysts, she finds herself losing track of what’s real and what’s for the camera. With the wedding finale looming, this runaway groom is tempting Ellie to start believing in storybook endings.
