Week 50 Review: Tying the Knot

From Goodreads:

Tying the Knot by New York Times bestselling author Brenda Novak

They're taking a chance on love…by marrying the wrong person

All of Grady Amos's brothers are married, and he's feeling left behind. Aja Kermani wants to break away from the man chosen by her parents and marry for love. This leads them both to Tying the Knot, a reality TV show where contestants meet their soulmate. Grady and Aja end up married—yet they have absolutely nothing in common! But there is something—beyond a powerful attraction—that draws them to each other, despite their completely different lives and backgrounds. Is a postshow annulment in their future? Or are two opposites truly meant for each other?

My Review:
Oh, this was such a delightful read! I love Brenda Novak's writing, and the Whiskey Creek series, but we haven't visited it in a while, and I'm glad that we did-because one Amos brother still had to find love, and I'm glad that he did!

This whole set up with a reality dating/marriage show? Yeah, it sounded like it could be really messy, and oh, it was! That he got on it because he thought the producer was interested in him-which she was, but that she needed another person for the show more, well, I guess she lost out, because Grady and Aja ended up together! 

Aja chose to go on the show because she wanted to find someone who she could feel passionate love for, in a method that maneuvered around her parents expectations. That she and Grady get paired is definitely a complication that she wasn't expecting.  

Grady and Aja don't seem to fit, they live in different towns, in jobs and families that keep them in those towns, and it would take someone making a change for their marriage to actually work out. When you add in the cameras, well, yeah, I really enjoyed their dynamics! And how they worked things out? So good! 

This was a really wonderful read and I can't wait to read more by Brenda Novak!
