Million Dollar Marriage by Katy Evans

Million Dollar Marriage (Million Dollar, #2)

by Katy Evans

From New York Times bestselling author Katy Evans comes a hot romance about two strangers and their race to fall in love.

If someone had bet Nell a million dollars that she would be saying “I do” to a complete stranger on national television, she’d have called them crazy, but with her crushing student loan payments sending her deep into the red, she’s out of options. This should be nothing more than a business transaction—until she sets eyes on her groom, and everything changes.

The game is on the instant Luke spots Penelope “Nell” Carpenter. He’s out for the money, yes, but getting a little dirty with Nell doesn’t sound too bad either. Everyone knows he’s not the marrying kind, so it’s a good thing it’s just for show. God knows he’s the worst guy his pretty wife should pick for real.

They have nothing in common, but if they want the grand prize, they’ll have to beat out eight other couples. Proving that total opposites attract should be easy enough…as long as they don’t fall in love in the process.

Okay, Million Dollar Marriage didn't quite hit the spot like I hoped it would. Still very enjoyable, but there were several things that just weren't working for me.

I really liked the concept of the game show, more than anything it showed me how different that Luke and Nell were. I actually really liked Luke's character, he's very charismatic, knows when to turn that charm up and I loved seeing his competitive nature come out. He was actually pretty sweet sometimes.

Nell wasn't exactly my favorite character, she was super naive and that point was constantly made throughout the entire story. I really don't want to dissect every little thing that I wasn't a fan of when it came to Nell. Normally, I'm okay with a character being a little innocent, but this was on a whole different level.

Things definitely picked up towards the end and I was completely into everything until it came to the reunion show and everyone learns if Nell and Luke end up staying together. A wee bit dramatic for me.

It was an ok read, book 1 is my favorite in the series.

The narrators were great, I think if it wasn't for Meg and Jacob, I may have struggled with the book a bit.
