Dating Mr. Darcy: A romantic comedy - Paperback

What's a reality TV dating show and Mr. Darcy got in common? Me.

I may be a contestant on a reality show, but I'm not chasing love. I've got much grander plans than that. My activewear line needs some serious spotlight, and apparently, this show is the ticket. But let's get real, is being paired with a Mr. Darcy knockoff really the price I have to pay?

That would be a deeply regretful yes.

Now, let's talk about Sebastian Huntington-Ross, the wannabe Mr. Darcy. This guy is straight out of a Jane Austen novel, like they plucked him from the pages and plopped him right on set. Dark features, chiseled jawline, shoulders that could block out the sun, and an English accent that could melt glaciers. But beyond those looks, he's got an ego the size of a hot air balloon, arrogance that could win awards, and a smugness that could power a small city.

I know, shocker.

You won't believe what I've uncovered though. It turns out the aristocratic Sebastian has his own secret agenda for being on this train wreck of a dating show, and it's got nothing to do with his cheesy one-liners about love. Of course this means sparks begin to fly between us as our attraction blossoms into a whole lot more.

But here's the dilemma: do I maintain my fortress of skepticism and keep Lord Fancy-Pants at arm's length? Or do I open my heart fully and embrace the crazy as both reality and "reality show" begin to blur?

Reality TV dating drama meets Pride and Prejudice in this laugh-out-loud rom-com from USA Today bestselling author, Kate O'Keeffe. It's the first title in the new Love Manor Romantic Comedy series and can be read as a stand-alone novel.
