This is the second in a series, but reading the first isn't necessary to understand or enjoy this one.The idea of creating a romance series centering on a romance reality show (like the Bachelor) is an interesting one, but a couple of things hold this book back.  First, there's the sheer size of the cast.  While some romance novels may feature a love triangle, this novel begins with a bunch of guys and it is sometimes hard to keep everyone straight (although, obviously, some men immediately become more prominent than others).  The other is the very limited amount of time that Kat spends with each of the men.  She develops strong feelings for some of them, but it is challenging to understand how that happens given the limited amount of time she spends with each of the men.  Although it is fun to feel that you're getting a "behind the scenes" style look at the show, there really isn't much information presented that reality show watchers wouldn't already be familiar with.It's a fun read, but the twist ending left me scratching my head.  The editing is very basic.
