He’s her rival for a million dollars.
He might steal her heart as well.


Loren Holloway doesn’t have time for romance—not when her family’s vineyard is drowning in debt and a reality TV paycheck is the only thing standing between her and losing everything her grandfather built. She didn’t even apply for
Tandem Island; her best friend signed her up. But now that she’s here, stranded on a remote island with eleven strangers and a prize that could save her family’s legacy, she intends to win.

The problem is Theo Hayes.

He’s infuriatingly charming, annoyingly gorgeous, and the man who steals her luggage before she even learns his name. He’s also whip-smart, fluent in more languages than a guy from London should be, and far too good at reading people he’s only just met—including her. Every challenge throws them together as reluctant partners, rivals, and eventually something Loren refuses to name, and every night she finds him a little harder to resist.

But something about Theo doesn’t add up. He flinches at questions about his past. He knows things a normal contestant shouldn’t. And when a storm rips the show apart and forces every camera-ready mask to slip, Loren starts to wonder if the man she’s falling for is anything like the one who stepped off that boat a week ago.

With only one spot in the final challenge and a growing suspicion that Theo is hiding something bigger than stage fright, Loren has to decide how much of her heart she’s willing to risk—on a game she needs to win and a man who might not be who he says he is.

Not What it Looks Like
is a swoony, competition-fueled romantic comedy full of banter, secrets, and a slow burn that builds to full blaze but stays behind closed doors. If you love hidden identities, enemies-to-allies tension, and a heroine who refuses to lose, grab your copy today!
