Bookworm Cora Glass has kissed a lot of frogs. So many, in fact, that she has sworn off love and kissing altogether. But when a twist of fate leads her to being pulled out of a crowd and cast on a romantic reality TV show, she finds herself alone on an island with the hottest man she's ever met: Jamie Bowen. He's British, he's a model, and best of all? He can quote Pride & Prejudice. What more could a girl want? Soon, what started as a fake relationship for the cameras in order to save Jamie's career begins to bloom into something more. And even though they come from completely different worlds, and Cora is determined to keep her heart safe, Jamie is prepared to play by her rules if it means turning their pretend romance into a reality. Under the watchful eye of millions of views, he swears to win her heart...even if he has to do it with no kissing allowed.
