About this ebook

Why do men like intelligent women?
Because opposites attract.

That's what Shelly Green thinks when she meets Kit Kincaide...on their wedding day. Unwittingly entered by her students in a Desperate and Dateless reality show contest, Shelly, a London music teacher, is caught off guard when she wins. Although the show's computer has predicted that she and Kit would make the perfect match -- physically, emotionally, and intellectually -- Shelly has some serious doubts about the hunky, boisterous American when she joins him at the altar. But not for long. A steamy limo ride proves that they have at least one thing in common. Suddenly, amid all the hype, there seems to be some hope for Shelly and Kit's ramshackle marriage, or at least for their honeymoon.
Cut to the tropical island of Réunion where newlywed Kit seems to be spending a lot of time on his own or with a French floozy...anywhere but with Shelly. Will Shelly discover the truth about Kit? Can she find romance in spite of a civil war, a natural disaster, and a crew of television staffers of the most dubious character? Do she and Kit have a chance for a real marriage in the surreal world of reality TV?
Clever, racy, and laugh-out-loud funny, Dead Sexy proves that love may be blind, but marriage is a real eye-opener.

    Would not have picked this up nornmally but it was on the bookshelf of the house we were holidaying in.
    I found it good fun holiday reading, totally unbelievable but had me laughing out loud alot of the time.
    That said I don't think I would read another one of her books.

    Of course you can see where it's going from the first chapter, so I skipped to the end. Maybe this works if you're stuck waiting for a bus, laid over at the airport or something. No ear for dialogue or dialects.

    I just could not get into this book and had to abandon it after a few chapters.
