Being a fan of Survivor, I didn't know if I'd like this book. The premise is the same as Survivor, so are the challenges and the weather conditions. Even the location in this book was on Survivor. That being said, I did enjoy the book.

Dean is an Olympic medal swimmer who wants to win this game show. Not for the money but for the title. Abby is a writer/reporter who was forced by her boss to step in after another contestant bowed out. She was in fear for her job and was offered a book deal if she played the game. She reluctantly agreed to do it. She and Dean end up paired together and one thing leads to another.

I really enjoyed both main characters. They were funny and likeable. The story was fast paced and I totally bought into their love story. Dean's journal entries were heartwarming. His love for Abby was so obvious but because of her self esteem issues, it was hard for her to truly believe. I enjoy Jill Myles when she wries as Jessica Clare. She does a great job with this novella length story. There's humor, emotion and hot sex. If you are a Survivor fan you'll really enjoy this one.

  1. I read this one awhile back and really enjoyed it too. It was the Survivor hook that pulled me in.
