She gave him her heart, but he wanted her soul... Melody Johnson dreams of meeting a man as dashing and wonderful as the heroes in the books she reads. Being a realist, she knows that's highly unlikely. Besides, men always leave her for someone more exciting-until she wins the lottery, that is. Pursued by scores of men happy to help spend her fortune, Melody longs to have her quiet life back. When a network executive offers a reality show, she seizes the opportunity to show the world she's off the single's market. Melody leaves her quaint hometown in New York for a sunny island in the Pacific where twenty gorgeous bachelors will vie for her heart and where she can stage a phony engagement. What she never expects, though, is to fall in love with a vampire. Guystof LeBreque is a four-hundred-year-old Romanian vampire who hates the taste of blood. He's roamed the earth for centuries, loathing the monster trapped inside him. After his mother's death at the hands of vampire-hunting assassins, Guystof vows never to turn a woman into a vampire. But when his father gives him an ultimatum to marry a rich woman in sixty days or lose his legacy to his bloodthirsty brother, Guystof battles his conscience. Does he keep the promise he made to himself, or does he keep his brother from power? Guystof resorts to drastic measures. He becomes a bachelor on a hit reality show. What he doesn't anticipate is losing his heart to the woman whose mortal life he must end. This book can be read as a stand-alone book. A paranormal romantic comedy… (more)

A secret romance trope of mine is the "reality show" romance shenanighan's. I love them. Toss in a vampire as well? All over it. Except this book managed to make me want to throw my tablet out the window. I stopped at the point where Theo (the male lead's "darker" brother) decided to basically mind rape Melody (our heroine) into submitting to him (though thankfully not in SEX just in the game). Melody's response once Guystoff tells her? "It felt like a fog!". nope. Sorry. not gonna happen.
