A wickedly funny debut romcom in which a young scientist reluctantly becomes a contestant on a reality TV dating show to save her lab-and realizes her secrets are threatened when romance unexpectedly finds her behind the scenes.
Grace Lambert's entire family are all influencers. Her mom runs an HGTV-like Instagram, her dad operates a Yoga for Men Youtube channel, and her brothers are famous on Tiktok and Twitch. Grace, however, is a scientist devoted to saving the Southern Mountain yellow-legged frogs from extinction, who has never had social media.
When her mom signs her up for a dating show with a cult-like following, Grace hangs up on their lawyer, Andrew, immediately. She has no interest in reality TV-until her lab loses its funding, and her coworkers learn about not only the show's worldwide viewership . . . but the cash prize.
Arriving on set, Grace immediately feels like a frog out of water. She doesn't know how to mug for the cameras, make effortless small talk with the contestants, or watch her tongue in an interview-making her a constant thorn in Andrew's side.
The more time Grace spends competing in challenges, unexpectedly flirting with contestants, and making Andrew's life a living hell, the more she realizes that being there for the wrong reason and keeping it secret might be trickier than she thought-not to mention just how much trouble an illicit, off-screen romance can bring.
