It's Him vs. Her when romance collides with reality--and everyone is watching. . . . He says . . . he'll have his way with her inside a week. Radio personality Matt Ransom of Atlanta's raucous, testosterone-fueled Guy Talk is counting on a sure thing when he agrees to be locked up in a tiny apartment for seven days with the competition: the earnest Dr. Olivia Moore. It's an on-camera publicity stunt and Matt's determined to come out on top. She says . . . she'll never make the same mistake twice. Though their long-ago affair is a secret, Olivia feels as if her broken heart is on display whenever she crosses paths with her infuriatingly cocky--and undeniably charismatic--nemesis. Now she's stuck with him in the reality show from hell . . . or is it heaven? All she has to do is keep a level head, even while every other part of her is spinning dizzily out of control.

When the station management decides that they can only afford one of the talk jocks, a competition is devised - the two will share cramped quarters a la "Big Brother" and report from the apartment, while the room is wired for video for the web crowd. Neither realizes how difficult the next week will be, with all the pent up tension between the two.
When the week is up, the aftermath of their captivity changes each of their lives. For Matt, being stuck is for a week with a psychologist meant discussing things he never wanted to think about; for Olivia it meant coming to terms with her feelings about her divorce, Matt, and what she wants for her own future.
The two are counseling a couple (JoBeth wants to marry; Dawg was burned by his ex-wife), giving their own form of advice that at times is poignant, and other times is hysterical (particularly when they exchange audiences for one day). As Matt and Olivia change, the advice they give this couple changes.
This is Wax's debut contemporary romance. It has a good storyline, with a great premise. It is choppy at times, but thankfully it has pretty snappy dialogue, and the bantering between the two leads is great. Wax's follow up novel, "Leave it to Cleavage" cements her position as a great contemporary storyteller in the vein of Jennifer Crusie.
