Two teens compete in a reality show in the woods of the Pacific Northwest in this hilarious rivals-to-lovers romance, perfect for fans of Lynn Painter and Lyla Lee.
Winning is Seyoon Shin’s middle name. Okay, it’s not, but she is a winner— despite what her critical dad says. Dean Parker, on the other hand, isn’t beating anyone to the finish line. His strengths are more brain, less brawn. When Evergreen Expedition—a wilderness game show with an eccentric host and a cult following—announces a eboot, they both jump at the chance to win the prize. Seyoon’s competitiveness fuels a fire in Dean that he’s never felt before, and his hunger to prove himself rivals hers.
To get to the finals, they realize they need each other. Seyoon and Dean form an alliance that the opportunistic producers are quick to frame as romantic. The rivals-to-lovers angle is good for views and intimidating the competition, but their chemistry is just for show . . . right?
As the lines blur between friendship and romance, reality and reality TV, Seyoon and Dean can’t ignore that the finale is fast approaching—and that only one of them can win.
