Tangle in the Tropics

This is book 2 in The Race for Riches or Romance series. I loved the first one, so I had high hopes for this one. The idea of another competition set on a tropical island really had me hooked. Hannah (Cooper from book 1's sister) signs up, hoping to find love and get over the one who still holds her heart years after they broke up. She is due to go with her best friend, but a bout of flu means she needs a replacement. Enter the ex and Super Bowl-winning stud.

There is more focus on their relationship than the game show in this book, and I did miss it a little, but it was still a great read with intense emotions and high stakes. When we follow the reality show, it has a different twist, and the contestants have obviously watched the first one and think they know how to play the game, but they don't.

It's a forced proximity, second-chance romance, superstar/regular person. If this had been the first book I read in the series, I think I would be a little confused and maybe wouldn't read more but with book 1 as a foundation, I will give the 3rd book a read.
