I hated this heroine.  To like a book I really have to like the characters. So this one is off to a bad start.  I think the story could have been good but the stupidity of the heroine just ruined it for me. She agrees to marry this Hollywood hunk who is desperate for a bride because his has run out on the wedding. It is to be televised, etc. and will bring him some big bucks which he needs because his uncle has stolen all his money.  They are going to pay her $150,000 to step in and take the place of the bride.  Not bad so far.She is a journalist.  She is currently writing for a rag paper that to call it trashy would be a compliment.  Paying her dues.  An added benefit of the wedding is that she will get an exclusive with the star that never gives interviews, so this will be a big feather in her cap and could just send her on her way to the big time.Right after the wedding she is trying to advise her family, etc. about the wedding without telling them the whole story or the truth.  She is constantly putting him down for marrying a stranger (which is what she did) for marrying for money (which she also did), etc. Judges him by all the articles she has read on him, not taking into account the rag she works for also prints nothing but trash on him. Does she seem a little stupid to you???Now her editor calls her in and is going to fire her because she didn't tell them she was marrying the hottie and give them the exclusive. So, to save her job, (the lowest on the totem pole with a rag paper no less) she agrees to give them the exclusive in 3 months.  Now, think about this. She has got the hottest interview on the planet and she is going to GIVE it to a rag to keep her job.  I guess she forgot she could live on the $150,000, give the interview to the biggest paper or television station in the country and be at the TOP of her game.  Does she seem rather stupid to you??????  She did to me.  I quit reading.  I really hated this girl and had no warm and fuzzy feelings regarding her at all.  Maybe it got better I guess I will never know.  I couldn't see how this girl could ever become the person this guy really deserved. Didn't like what I read.
