The Consequence of Revenge by Rachel Van Dyken

The Consequence of Revenge

by Rachel Van Dyken

After losing his best friend to another guy, the notoriously too-confident Max Emory suddenly feels lost. He may have devastatingly good looks, an abundance of charm, and a claim to one of the biggest hotel empires around, but he has no ambition anymore. So when his fed-up friends decide they’ve had enough of his moping, they sign him up to be the next bachelor on the reality series Love Island. And between his pride and his forged signature on an ironclad contract, Max just can’t say no.

Now he’s stranded in paradise with twenty-four women, one terrifying goat, and Becca, the breathtaking barista who already turned him down back home. The closer Max gets to Becca, the more determined he becomes to win her over. As she gets to know him better, things start heating up. But is Becca really after Max’s heart—or is she after the cash prize she could claim once the cameras stop rolling?

I loved The consequences of loving colton so when this book was available I dove right in! This book has a lot going for it-humor, a great cast of (crazy) characters, and romance. I wasn't sure how I would feel about the book being set as part of a dating reality TV show. I am not a fan of the bachelor or anything, but this book worked for me. I liked Becca too-she was very believable. She didn't fall for the cheesy one liners that Max throws out, and she admitted that she didn't believe in the premise of falling in love on a TV show. She needed the money for school and that is why she was there. Watching the relationship blossom between Becca and Max was sweet and romantic in such a humorous way. This is another winner for Rachel Van Dyken! With this series, she is 2 for 2 and I can't wait for book 3-Reid's book!
