Reality TV seems to be all the rage. There are survival shows, cooking shows and the ever-popular dating shows. In A June Bride we get to go behind the scenes of Rejection Connection where Wynne Hardy is the bachelorette looking for a man to replace the one who broke her heart. We join the story right after the show has ended and Wynne has chosen Andy to be her new love. Andy proposed to Wynne on the last episode and she said yes.Wynne finds herself caught between her real life and her reality show life. Can the two worlds exist together? Can you really be in love with someone that you hardly know? Her family and friends keep cautioning her against it but she just continues to plow ahead. Before she knows it she is on the brink of her storybook wedding. Then she receives a message that changes everything.The story is fiction of course but it allows us to explore thoughts of what we would do in a similar situation. I enjoyed the unusual theme of this novella. Dating shows and Christian Fiction rarely mix and I thought that Marybeth Whalen did a fantastic job of showing the flaws of  reality TV. When do you reach the point of no return when everyone is watching? Most importantly the story reminds us that no matter what public opinion is we have to be true to ourselves and what we believe.I received a copy of this ebook to facilitate my review.
