____________________

Ambitious and successful businesswoman Zinnia is done with waiting around for love. Turning her dating profile into a marriage-merger proposal is the perfect solution: a few strategic meetings, move in together, get marriedโ€”all within thirty days. Everyone doubts her plan . . . but then she meets Jordan, a near-perfect applicant with a big secret.

Jordan's family has spent the last decade starring in a massively popular reality show about their lives, and he has finally agreed to join the cast. Already out of his comfort zone, Production are now demanding that, in order to boost viewership, he needs to get married on the show . . . to his ex.

Realising that Zinnia could be his way out of the situation, Jordan proposes a mutually beneficial marriage agreement: she gets her business partner husband, and he gets to help his family on his termsโ€”by marrying Zinnia instead. But, as the line between reality and show blurs, the pair are soon faced with a choice: their tidy, unemotional contract or the beautifully messy love story they have stumbled into.
